Car Talk › Re: How Do I Know If My Thermostat Has Been Removed?? by cardoctor(m): 7:25pm On Sep 13, 2015
What is all this dogon turanci about?

With the engine cold, Simply loosen the thermostat housing and see if the thermostat is there.

Alternatively, with the engine cold, remove the top radiator hose from the thermostat housing and carefully poke through with a long screw driver or engine oil dip stick to see if it goes through. If you feel an obstruction where the thermostat sits then its most likely that its still there.

1998 Nissan Primera. If you didn't buy this car as a direct "Tokunmbo", its most likely that the thermostat has been removed by the previous owner.

This model usually has a lot of electrical issues associated with poor maintenance and local rewires doing trials and errors. Make sure you have it checked properly or else you may end up in a money pit.

Many reasons could be the cause and you havent really given enough information on what went wrong and what was actually done. It should be checked by a well experienced ac technician.

Whats you location?

I think the 3Ltr V6 Supercharged engine is a bit too small for the size and weight of this vehicle. A 6Ltr V8 supercharged unit would have been more appropriate.

Very simple. Adjust the Idle Air Control valve. This has to be done manually with a short, medium sized flat screwdriver. You will find the IAC valve on the side of the Throttle Body aka Injector mouth with a straight grove for the adjustment. Screw it in or out til the idle speed stabilises. You do not need a scanner for this operation.

Good luck.

Ikenna351:
From the external door glasses chrome detailing, it means its either a GL or SR model, unless you fitted them in.

Ikenna
The GL's didn't come with that type of dashboard. The brown dashboard shown is circa 1982 onwards.

Car Talk › Re: My Mercedes Takes too Long To Get Warm in The Morning by cardoctor(m): 9:38pm On Sep 04, 2015
If your thermostat is still in place, then the only other possible reason my be that when you had the overheating issue, your mechanic/ electrician wired your radiator and aircon fans to work continuously bypassing the thermo switch. Its a common practice here in naija.

Is that the case?

If that's the case, then you have your car engine cooling immediately on start up thereby slowing down engine warm up time.

And what are trying to make out of this? Is the hospital world class or not? He has built the hospital already you can go there and see by urself. If they are no qualified Doctors to treat him well, he has right to go anywhere and treat himself.
Yeah. I get your point. its like buying a N150m Rolls Royce Phantom and not having a qualified driver to chauffeur you.

You will most likely have plenty of headaches with it and eventually end up with a serious migraine.

Aside from that, most conversion parts for this type of Toyota is not available here as this model of Toyota was built solely for the Asian market.
