Filled up at North West filling station off Mariam babangida way, and headed out....

The movement was really poor, car felt choked cry i could barely do 60km/hr sad


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s22xB5-L1XQ

I could literarily feel the vehicle say "I can't breathe" at this point i had 2 options, turn back and check the exhaust system or drive really slow to Lagos.

Word of advice at this point, if you are driving a modern day car with a blocked exhaust system stop and get it fixed, you could damage a lot of things in the engine including literarily setting the car on fire .


But Gazzuzz was not driving a modern day car, I took a third option which was to push the car harder, in my mind better spoil now let me tow you back to town and take GIG jeje cheesy


I started hearing exhaust leaks.... My method was paying off the exhaust leaks were getting louder with until there was a thunderous explosion !

My baby just had an orgasm!




How many litres of fuel did you use for the journey?

Taa thats how i dusted vBoot along PH Owerri road... I even had 3 occupants... vBoot guy was alone. I pulled up close him smiled heard his acceleration i gunned mine and moved on. The fan noise of the vBoot was very loud at just 120km.

Remember its a carburetor fuel intake...

But what Gazzuzz has is a straight i6 2.6litre. It's a sleeper in a good drivers hands like him. Wish it can be modified to fuel injection and maybe he'll add a turbo

Modified;
If you see wia Gazzuzz the pedal corolla you will think it has turbo.

where we stop for this our journey sef....


Yes engine bay cleaning.... Done.


Time for air-conditioning...

Car came with a dysfunctional air-conditioning system so diagnosis starts.

First things first , let's see if the system leaks using our vacuum pump.

Note the AC connectors are old sch R12 type cheesy

Got the a/c gauges connected and pulled a vacuum. I looked for the high line but could not find it, so I worked with the low line only.


Re: My Sojourn Into W201 World (1993 190E I6 Auto Tranny) by GAZZUZZ(m): 10:18pm On Aug 12, 2020
I was able to pull -14psi which dropped to -13psi after about an hour.


There's a really tiny leak, but I am not interested in taking down 27 year old AC systems looking for a possible seal leak.

So let me try fixing the small leak with a refrigerant with an additive that fixes small rubber related leaks.


Let's go back to sch so we understand how this works .

Quite frankly , technology has really not changed from the 1980's till 2020, same principles still apply in a lot of devices across vehicle electronics.
