Prosecutors have said the Tate brothers recruited their victims by seducing them and falsely claiming to want a relationship or marriage.

If this kind of offence is taken very seriously in Nigeria, a majority of Nigerian men will be or would have been in prison ... Nigerian men that can promise women anything just to hit the puna


A breach of promise to marry is an actionable wrong under Nigerian Law... But the rather difficult complications involved in proving such case has made it a very undesirable path to pursue justice, as opposed to simply killing the man or using Ogun to swear for him while standing naked at a T-Junction

Sitting pretty here.



My own is that I was expecting emphasis to be more inthe use of CNG which is cheaper if price is the major concern but

CNG is cheaper but burns more.. Besides, it isn't yet as available as Petrol, LPG and diesel.

This is hopefully, a rejoinder and an avenue for constructive appraisals relating to a thread where a popular Kazeem on this forum advertised conversion of fuel generators to LPG/CNG for money savings.. And after I had read his savings mathematics as per that, whether it's worth it or not is a relatively grey area... At least for me.. Moreso that he did that LPG comparison with petrol, and left out diesel which considering the now narrowed price gap between the 3 fuels, is now back in the game.. Ehn, some of una go ask as op don do im own, why I no do the comparison of LPG/Diesel? .. In response to that, I am not the one marketing a fuel saver LPG generator add-on.. It's up to that marketer to explain how his add-on will also be more economical and safer (emphasis on safer) than a diesel gen of similar size... Abi diesel no be fuel too?

That being said, I read a lot of back and forth on that LPG Gen advert thread and most of its critics were shut down by an argument that if you could safely use gas cylinder/burner to cook in your house, then it's perfectly safe to use for Generators.. While at first sight, that retort seems a very logical explanation, it kinda crumbles on closer inspection... Then there was this other funny guy who said he keeps LPG in his house, but fears having a gallon of fuel in his house, thus LPG is safer than Petrol ...

Now to the Petrol/LPG safety debate...money savings aside.. Na who dey alive dey save moni

There is a reason why petrol stations are drive-in while gas plants aren't....as in you can drive you car into a petro station, but for gas plants, at least the ones I know, one has to park outside and walk in with the cylinder for a refill.. There are even self-service petrol stations in some countries, but I am yet to see a self-service LPG station..LPG hasn't gained that kind of operational trust yet.

Vehicles have been known to crash and not burn even with full tanks of fuel.. Heck even fuel tankers tumble, spilling their contents on the road, but sometimes don't catch fire until external factors accidentally ignite it....Black marketers, some with lit cigarettes in their mouth, sell fuel in jerrycans all across this country with little or no consequence..


Your gas cylinder is inside your house connected to a burner whose functions are regulated solely by members of that household, and overtime, a safe pattern of public usage of gas to cook has been developed and generally understood.. Now even the most illiterate persons can safely operate a gas burner.. Yet, even with that extended and generally understood pattern of use, gas accidents still happen.. And are usually very fatal when they do..Gas, coupled with the high pressure under which they are stored in steel cylinders are a potential bomb (iron shrapnel from the steel cylinder included as freebies) , if even slightly mishandled.. Leaking petrol generators will mostly leak out the fuel from the fuel tap area and go off when all the fuel has leaked out, very rarely starting a fire..

To take it further, forgetting to close the petrol tap in a generator will at worst lead to flooding of its carburetor or fouling of its plugs, causing a hard start.. No generator will catch fire because its fuel tap was left on after switching it off.. But with this whole gas/carburettor generator concoction, what exactly happens if pesin forget to off d gas tap after gen is switched off?.. At least we know what happens when people forget to switch off their gas taps after cooking...Take it further, what happens if pesin leaves the fuel tap on while the gen is running on LPG?.. Will efritin now mix together and explode danu?

Another trouble with these generator gas contraptions is that it hasn't been extensively used in Nigeria for people to be very familiar with its workings... So there might be operational errors which might be fatal.. I saw some persons on that thread seeking operational clarifications... Carburetor say, carburetor no say... This one say, that one no say.. If the operational guidelines are still a bit grey for such a potentially incendiary device, can we with all fear of God say this thing is ready for public use when we know a basic operational mistake by a user can raze down an entire neighborhood?

Secondly, no one has ascertained what kind of fumes these gas powered generators produce, if they do, and the effect of these fumes on people, short-term and longterm. Gas cookers are virtually "fumeless", as far as we can tell at least... Or they produce fire which comes with its own fumes... At least we know that the fact that we can't perceive a fume doesn't mean it isn't there.. Odorless carbon emissions from generators have been known to wipe out entire families.. . But how safe, if any, are the emmisions from these fuel combustion generators which are now converted to gas use, and who certified them safe?..

Saying dem don dey use am for India, Pakistan, etc is just being smart by half .. These countries are more of a shithole than Nigeria... . Giving us instances of where these LPG carburetor generator contraptions are approved for public usage in any 1st world country will build more confidence in the product, rather than pointing to Asian shitholes who have a reputation for not valuing their own lives.


Instead of all this roundabout, pending when other people have used their own lives and that of their families to test the safety of this contraption, simply get a small diesel generator and use.. Its price-energy ratio is better than that of petrol and may be on par with this LPG thing if not more than it.... And it's far less incendiary than both LPG and Petrol usage.. Yeah, I am sure that while frenzying over petrol, una forget there are small generators that run on diesel...and there is little to no risk of your diesel generator burning down your street..

Opinions, both aligning and misaligning, are very much welcome.. Most especially those with vast technical knowledge on this issue.. And by this I particularly mean those in the oil and gas industry who have a working knowledge of how flammable or otherwise these substances can be...

cybertron88:

If we check well, where u reside might not be more than 500m from a gas plant of petrol station. Leave all these long safety talk. My cylinder has been in my kitchen for more than 10yrs without any issue but fear no go let me keep even 10litres of fuel in my house for one day. Gas is far safer than petrol.

There is a reason why petrol stations are drive-in while gas plants aren't....as in you can drive you car into a petro station, but for gas plants, at least the ones I know, one has to park outside and walk in with the cylinder for a refill..

Na old motor.. If you try to fix every minor creak and rattle, it will bankrupt you.

For those kind of body creaks and rattles that don't affect drivability, just increase volume of radio and keep driving..

My colleague in the office spent close to 100k chasing one phantom barely noticeable creak in his car dashboard for months.. Last last, mecho wey dismantle dashboard no fit couple am back properly.. A broken clip here, broken plastic and a cut wire there, that's how matter escalated to the extent of airbag deploying on its own and nearly killing him while he was in the car, parked by the roadside... If e enter pothole, windscreen defroster and wiper go on, and plenty other gbege enter the moto.

It's as simple as doing the same research by asking questions, first from People who specialise in Atf oils and then Google on the internet!!

Is Toyota T1-TIV (dexron type iv ) compatible with Honda Accord V6 in the absence of Honda ATF dexron T-VI(dexron type 6)?

Simple! No man knows it all.

Coincidentally one of the first search outcomes from google on the compatibility of Toyota T1-TIV to the Honda ATF dexron TVI was even from this same Nairaland and then other foreign sources, complete with analysis.

As a matter of fact, in the event of slight ATF shortage, generic brands like Holt Dexron III or any dexron III type brand can be used temporarily to top up, gearboxes that use Dexron VI such as Honda accord V6!

Note only for top up in the event of a shortage, complete Oil flush demands you stick to the appropriate brand or type!!

But so far, based on my research Toyota T1 T-IV is definitely compatible with the Honda ATF dexron T-VI

Definitely if I was in lagos, I will highly recommend that anyone doing Transmission Oil change for this car should look out specifically for Honda ATF, but if you can't acquire Honda ATF in your locale, then Original Toyota T1 TIV (dexron type 4) is very okay and handles very well without problems!!

A simple inspection, test drive and scan is more than enough to prove it to be so....

As for the blood transfusion, a simple Google search (which I now sense you are allergic to doing) defines it as Xenotransfusion!

As a matter of fact, the International Xenotransfusion association (IXA) exists......

What bars the Xenotransfusion from Chimpanzees to Humans is ethics and will only be welcome under the most extreme scenarios and under the strictest biosafety conditions.....

Till date Xenotransfusions between cats and dogs as well as some birds and dogs happen every other day.....

N.B:- Whatever quarrel you have with Google and
google search, try and settle. No be them swear in tinubu biko.....

Since you haven't heard of the atf with the below pics, I agree you are right and I am wrong Sir..

The way you keep going about this, I tend to suspect that some of your researched 'xenotranfusion' has been done on you.. So this will be my last response to you, as I don't have the mental advantages of the 'xenotransfusion' that appears to have been done on you.

The right transmission oil to use for this vehicle is the Honda ATF ....unfortunately that Oil cannot be readily found anywhere in Uromi (where that car was left and parked before I moved it to benin, let alone in Benin City or anywhere in Edo state for that matter).

Which is why I used the Toyota‘s T1-IV atf (a type IV atf), which is very compatible with this particular car's gear box which uses a Dexron VI type atf. I do thorough research before I put anything into any car I drive....you should do the the same

So the research you did told you to put Toyota gear oil in a Honda?

If you get sick and need blood, don't fail to accept transfusion of Chimpanzee blood because they also look a bit human.

[quote author=ehissi post=123798526][/quote]

Wrong gear oil.. Unforgivable for that vehicle

Wonderful offer but it dey low one kind...

Why not do #1.35m.

I just changed the 4 tires to grade one Belgium Michelin tire.....205/60 16Rim!! Also I just serviced the car gear with Type IV transmission oil from Toyota and Did engine servicing with Mobil Oil....

It Make sense finish.....

The seats sef are also heated seat, so when cold enter your leg or your yansh, you can use the seat and warmup till madam show up........

Anyone who knows Honda cars work will avoid this vehicle...

Nice analysis by op

Considering the new proximity of diesel price to that of LPG and petrol, please someone else should help us analyse as well the consumption rate of diesel for power generation in relation to LPG.. At least I know as a fact that diesel burns far slower than petrol.


Because way I am looking at it, diesel might be more cost effective for power generation than LPG or petrol presently..and far safer than these LPG to petrol generator wahala...

..

If I am not mistaken, that bus is a V8 yeah?

If it is, please learn from this similar thread your learned brother opened a short while ago... https://www.nairaland.com/7711097/fuel-consumption-4runner-v8-2004#123509469

Summary... You wey go carry old school V8 in this post-subsidy era no get any business asking about fuel consumption... Just dey buy fuel as the spirit leads ..

GAZZUZZ:


why not just drive like a normal person, obey the lights and renew docs when due. .

What if like most China Products or due to improper maintenance, it malfunctions or it is deliberately tampered with by the authorities to raise revenue, irrespective of whether an offence is committed or not? ... This is Nigeria where even Traffic lights can be modded to catch only Ibo pipu


Angrygoat beats a redlight but na innocent AutoManual wey dey behind am wey move on green e catch when im OS boot finish 10 seconds later?


Point is.. Drive sanely but pray not to fall a victim of the Nigerian situation.. You won't be the first or the last to fall victim of wrongly registered traffic offence by these Traffic lights.

Stuff that work flawlessly abroad somehow almost always find a way to misbehave in Nigeria.

Good to know the car is being sold along with its first owner....

Even if vehicle turns out a dud, buyer can use owner for money ritual to get funds for another vehicle.

vivalavida:


You are helll-bent on buying the car. I doubt if you need any advice really.

No mind am

Him be twins with that guy wey buy v8 Forerunner post-subsidy come dey ask of im fuel economy and how e fit change the engine to a lesser fuel-thirsty one.


Allow pesin wey wan die to buy wetin go kill am.

A neighbour wants to sell his Peugeot 206 2006. The engine would need to be changed and a little body work.

1. How much would be best to negotiate for ?
2. How much would a new engine cost?
3. Heard the head lamps are expensive?
4. Good spray would cost?
5. Overall is it a good car?

Fragile electronics.. The older it gets, the more the electrical gremlins... Peugeot over-engineering

Expensive parts for what's supposed to be an economy vehicle.

Can only mostly properly be fixed by Peugeot experts with appropriate scan tools, etc...


Not worth the supposed fuel saving flaunted... all these is my opinion of course.. I can't understand why anyone will want a vehicle which saves you a bit of fuel money, but takes it back and more in parts, cost of specialist repairs, and significantly higher fuel consumption if vehicle is put under any significant load..

It will likely be much worse with the scrap specimen you are about to put your money into... A bad engine means you can't fully ascertain the correct state of the car's electronics, gear, and suspension... These "buy and replace engine" cars hardly ever need only an engine to run fine..

Real fuel cost for 100 miles =petrol cost + monetary value of Hybrid battery depreciation for that distance.

As you dey chop awoof mpg for Prius, sha keep aside the money you save on fuel for a hybrid battery replacement down the line..

Op is a Kazeem.. He can afford to service and replace the hybrid system himself and thus drastically cut cost of servicing.. But can you?

Nothing is free even in Freetown

Ugly girl...People like Beverly Naya or Hilda Baci have been going around near naked causing massive penis erections, yet we have not heard about them being denied into anywhere...


If she had a good shape, she would have likely not been embarrassed.. Some girls I know have worn near-bikinis to that office and gotten what they needed..

Simi's showcasing her bad shape traumatised the poor Passport office staff.. So they had to send her out before their eye begin comot pus ontop the nonsense view.

@buygala point of correction its a TOKUNBOR car not nigeria used.Where did i ever mention that is NIGERIAN used?The way u are sounding i am begining to THINK U ARE REALLY DETERMINED TO MAKE ME REGRET I BOUGHT THE CAR.For your info i stand resolute.Nobody coarsed me to buy the car.In fact i had already paid fully for the car b4 i pasted the TOPIC on Nairaland

So why are you now disturbing this section if you are so happy with your choice?

Close down thread and enjoy your Forerunner aka John the Baptist ... As John the baptist prepared the way for Jesus, I just hope this John the Baptist wey you buy so no go be the beginning of real Shege Banza for you.


Na me fvck up sha... I suppose sabi say your head no correct when you dey ask of fuel economy of v8 Forerunner

kingreign:


Go check your truck, something isn’t right!

Shebi na you advise am to continue with the purchase of a v8 Forerunner post-subsidy.. And a Nigerian used for that matter


Op use im two leg go find wetin go kill am,and e don finally meet wetin ready to kill am...

And you Sir, by your Ahitophelic advice, led him down into that valley of the shadow

Thanks to you, op will now understand what I meant when I said he can go on with the purchase if he owns a filling station.

Steverolly:

I've been dealing with insecurities from girls in my past relationships.
Not a new thing, rest.

Lies..


If you were, you won't be so attention-starved that dating a girl with male friends will bother you so much

Steverolly:
I've noticed the way I lose interest in girls that have lots of male friends, like it's a red flag for me.
I don't know if it's insecurity or whatever but I'm very good looking, in fact I don't even approach girls, they approach me. I've also met a lot of great girls but once I notice they have a lot male friends or they Relate so much with guys I just lose interest.
Is this normal or it's just me?

No you are not "very good looking".... Male attractiveness go far beyond a nice face.. You can't have body/mouth odor, any body/mental/financial deformities and be attractive to anyone except your mother .

Move away from that self deceptive premise, and you might find a solution to your insecurities.

If you are insecure around girls who have lots of male friends, find your mental health with a girls who doesn't have such male friends... And then when such girl later finds a male friend/ friends, disengage from her and begun the search for peace again ... Continue the merry-go-round until you find some lasting peace, if you will.

kingreign:

This has to be the most incorrect comment I’ve read this week/weekend.
I give up!

Without the use of plenty shalaye, Torque is a vehicle's "pulling force"..


Interpret that however you wish..

kingreign:


It’s got impressive torque. For trucks, it’s not about horsepowers, but torque figures

Unless op is in the business of towing stuff, truck torque is irrelevant.

emmyN:


No, no, don't do that. You would be setting yourself up for a catastrophe. Since you've paid for it already, then use it for a while and observe in real time how it's economy fares compared to your Pathfinder. If it's something you can put up with for the gain of raw power on the wheels, then keep it. Else sell it and get the V6 which should offer slightly better economy. But don't attempt to change that engine from the stock. The engines on the 4runner are a workhorse, so they should serve you well.

There is nothing "raw power" about the 235hp Forerunner V8 engine...

TheOldGods:
You must really be a bad mechanic. So because of 600 naira fuel, I should start my car immediately and start driving at full speed without allowing my engine to warm up about, or even telling your clients to drive slow if they happen not to warm up. I pity those who listens to your advice. You're among those bad mechanic that fixed one and destroys 4

Calm down.. Don't put words in op's mouth..

He is totally right on the point that you should drive your car immediately you start it.... . I don't know where you got the part about driving it at full speed immediately after that.

As e be say you be cow wey no get brain, you fit even redline kickdown your car while driving out of your house.

Which elephant oga...una go Dey talk like say Benz Na perfect car, Benz isn't it has its issues especially sensors but it is far far better than Japanese

Toyota...go to Toyota thread you will hear, 21 pin gear , 21 pin gear, over heat, transmission , blablabla


How many people in this thread has even complained about transmission here ...just follow this thread from beginning to now ...

Benz transmission do not fail like that trashy Toyota ! I have driven Toyota and I talk from experience oga

Yes Benz have problems just like every other car but they aren't as bad as Toyota

For the past 10yrs I have been driving Benz it hasn't left me stranded at road, it will go home until you park and remove the keys them it will not move ... I don't know if it's a safety feature and another thing is that I will always drive a car that has timing chain not belt and I have CVT transmission

Personal choices ... Can you respect that please ?

You advised someone to focus on body and interior, downplaying engine/transmission, and totally not mentioning Electricals... It's not a "personal choice" when you mislead others by omitting critical information.. It's witchcraft.

As for the rest of your rant about Toyota, I don't even know how that relates to my comment...

GEJDHERO:
So at the end of the day its only fuel consumption that is the drawback.My previous car was like that so i can always manage.I went to market with the mind to get a pathfinder jeep but when i saw the machine(4runner) it totally blew me off my feet.

If fuel consumption has never been a problem for you, why then did you creat this thread?


Be careful
