Everybody run oo. This guy is an hardened criminal, a wanted scammer by Nigerian Army and hierarchy of Ikeja confinement.


His modus of operandi posting fake household items for sale on Facebook and every other social medias. He would tell you he's an Army personnel and ask you to pay ahead because the items are fast selling . I nearly fell victim of this thief if not for my instincts that made me searched his no on Facebook and Google.

His phone no is 07041941812. I will post my chat him with him.


He was fast to delete the fake Ikeja Cantonment address and account no to pay money to before I could screenshot my chat with him.

Please house assist me.

I have repaired my sienna 2005 LE car for three weeks consecutively spending huge money in coils, changing of oil every week which goes bad after a week again.

What could be the problem?

I have changed 10 coils between January and today, and changed oil this months like 4 times.

Check your starter motor aka kick starter … it’s probably the culprit here …

Then your final culprit is in your fuse box. I’m sure if you changed out your entire underhood fuse box you would see a difference.

I once had a problem like yours, I’d be driving and my car would switch off randomly but when I started it back again it would start right back up, I changed the fusebox (after changing this and that for a year without success) before the issue went away for good.

Ps. Have you checked the fuse for your fuel pump in the fusebox under your driver side dashboard? If you turn your ignition as if you’re about to start your car do you hear your fuel pump ’priming’? I once had this fuse malfunctioning and I had the same problem you are currently having.

First check if your fuel pump is making that sound before you kick-start your engine, if that sound isn’t heard when your engine refuses to start but is heard when it eventually starts up then you have a very easy fix on your hands.

I do not know the particular fuse number on your vehicle but I’m sure since it’s a Honda it would be easy to locate.

Please pardon my ignorance. I urgently need to know the difference between Catalytic converter and Muffler.

1) Are they different or do they do the same job.
Answer: They are different and does not perform the same job. Note that catalytic converter also aid the job of muffler but muffler can't perform the function of catalytic converter

2) Do they complement each other or they have nothing in common.
Answer: As stated in answer for question 1, catalytic converter compliment muffler. Please note that catalytic converter is part responsible for emissions control, while muffler is responsible for noise control from engine exhaust gas

Thanks in anticipation of your kind response.

Please what should I do to the throttle cable? Should I slack it?

Your problem might actually be a very simple one to solve.

Check all your battery negative grounds (chassis and engine) to see if they are dirty, corroded or loose. If one single ground of your vehicle is not okay your ecu will be having issues and starting your car will be a game of luck most times.

If I were you I’d start by changing all my grounds & negative wires to new proper gauge ones just in case the old ones have withered within their insulation which one can not detect with the common eye.

Also check the positive battery wires coming from the alternator and fuse box to the battery head for same issues.

I'm considering buying a Honda Accord 08

Would you advice I go for V6 or V4 Engine

Any pros and cons of V6 I should be aware of.
