Car Talk › Re: Reason Why Is Important To Vacuum A System Before Refilling Of Gas by AutoMoTech(m): 10:40pm On Jul 04, 2019
mosbus:
Am not in the position to condemn any body's product.
But the only gas i trust and used,in fact i even run the test with my gas analyzing machine is harp and snow they are 99.9 pure R134a.
I understand. Wasnt asking for you to condemn, just personal recommendation from you as a professional. And thanks for that input because I know a tech dt suggested at a time that snow was low quality. Tho he said harp was of a higher quality. Coincidentally That was the reason i asked for your recommendation. Thanks again.

mosbus:
Pls be careful with the R134a gas you use on your vehicles.
Most gas are written R134a but mixed with R22 and R12 which causes breakdowns to most compressor.
Please do kindly explain further. How do we spot the mixed ones?
And do you have any particular brands you personally trust and can recommend?

Before you went ahead changing the brain, lungs and kidneys........


Did you have vehicle scanned?..... huh
Very good question.
I dnt understand why people just keep throwing parts at a car without thorough diagnosis first. Wen money finish dts wen dey will now come to ask for expert advice...
OP sorry about your ordeal o but alot of things can cause a car to jerk while accelerating. However asides symptoms amd vehicle history, scan data is a huge tool for we professionals willing to help with diagnosis remotely. Pls note remotely. We are not magicians.
So pls try scan n post codes here lets see what the computer wants to tell us.
Also under what conditions do you experience the surge? Does it happen at a particular RPM or anytime?

Car Talk › Re: REMOTE FAULT ASSESSMENT AND DIAGNOSIS GUIDE By AutoMoTech by AutoMoTech(op): 10:01am On Jul 04, 2019
PLease guys, before any repairs.... lets make it a point of duty to run a scan on our cars before running upamdan to buy pars. Yes i kno your mechanic is a whiz. Yes is good you trust him, but for electrical faults or even any engine performance problem run a scan. Even if you will need to pay please pay and get a scan results. That way you can even do a quick online research about the problems your ECU has noted and follow with your mechanics fixes.
Do have a nice day pals...

Car Talk › Re: Don't Ever Buy Nigerian Used Car. by AutoMoTech(m): 9:48am On Jul 04, 2019
orahfrancis:
My first car was a Nigerian used VW passat. I used this car for good 4 years without issues.when i solf i bought a used Peugeot 307 that csr drained me i sold and bought another 307 from a retired army. The it revvs just like a brand new. I advice buyers to do all due diligence before buying one.the truth is that some nigerian used cars are as good as new ones. And finally when buying a used car please i repeat buy from a rich man who maintains his cars not from a poor man who cannot eat talk less of maintaining a car. If u know u know. The three used cars i bought proved this right
Contrary... if the rich man has a driver that has been servicing with 20w50 rather than 0w20 nko?
Vehicle maintenence has nothing to do with financiL status. It is a thing of the mind sir. ITs either you care about your car and take good kia of it or u dnt care as long as d engine starts u r good to go. Some of this big men suffer in the hands of our so called "big" workshops. They pay thousands for servicing, bt the workshop dey service their motor with low oil grade.... u see say nob about how much.

i ask if there has been any liquid or water entry into vehicle, client confirms water thru the front left side.

I take out the inner fuse box inspect the sockets, a lot of them are corroded in green.

I ask for some petrol and an old tooth brush, my Ajebo client no sabi remove small fuel from gen.

I teach him how to tap fuel from the tank using the fuel tank tap.

Back to the car, I dissasemble the fuse box and clean it.

All the corroded connections done I proceed to install the fuse box, coupled the footwell area and started the car
And did it start?

Thank you. The problem is from the timing chain. Its overstretched and then i bought new adjuster. But the mechanic could not complete the repairs because of rainfall. I will keep you posted. Thank you.
Wow nice to hear. However since U av opened the engine already. Why not take a look at the other timing components and ensure dey r good. So U dnt recouple and have to open up d engine again?

please my Toyota camry 2007 is emitting blue smoke now, I bought it as tokunbo and it was working well since march. though the car still move well and no abnormal noise coming from it. but the blue smoke is really given me concern. kindly suggest how to go about solving it.

thanks
Blue smoke is usually associated with engine oil burning in the cylinder. And this could be caused by quite a number of things.
1. Find a competent mechanic
2. Run a deep scan. If it is electrical related you can isolate it. If not den u can focus on mechanical faults.
3. Don't throw parts at the problem.


OP pls confirm have you been experiencing oil shortage recently?
I believe that engine series are known to consume alot of oil. If Thats d 2AZ engine sha.

Ok dts good. Seen the list. Now lets help u get this fixed.

P0341 has to do with your variable timing control.
Things to check/test
1. Timing chain (damaged or stretched). Ensure timing is properly set. MAke sure the cam and crank sensors are properly socketed. Replace if found bad.
2. Remove VTC control solenoid valve. Check if it is clogged and if it is functioning properly. Ensure it is not stuxk close or stuck open. There is a also some sort of a strain that cleans dirt in the oil. Ensure it is clean. And before carrying out this tests, ensure your engine oil properly guaged. Low oil can also throw this code atimes.

For P0135 and P0141
Check your O2 sensor circuit. Both the sensor circuit and the heater circuit.
Check the fuse, look for wire that's cut, test the o2 sensor ensure they are working properly. If not replace.

For P0662 and P1078
Kindly look online, there are enough videos that will guide you through the proper diagnosis and fix. Its a ling process so i cant stat typing everything here.

For the ABS codes, check the ABS module. Is it awake?
Then check the sensors ensure the wires are not cut open or imoroperly improperly socketed.

Best of luck bro
Now lets beg kingreign to allow u bring the car
Hehehehehe
