PoliticsRe: Lagos To Ban Okada, Fashola’s Committee Endorses Plan by Cargoed: 3:33pm On Jan 02, 2012
When they banned Okada in P.H the next day the Okada men bought cars and where back in business the next day.
They visited all the police stns and mechanic parks and bought all the abandoned cars renovated them painted them taxi, others went into tricycle keke business
The main issue here is that we now have tricycles in Lagos. There is no where in Lagos that you want to go that a tricycle can not take you. Just ask questions at the parks. The rest you can walk, its safer and good exercise for the body, since the air will be much cleaner without Okada

The advantage of banning Okada in P.H was immense, you can now walk along the road comfortably for journeys up to 35mins walk. This you can't do now in Lagos b/cos the whole place is choked up by Okada. Emergency admissions in hospitals where also down about 70%

One of the bridges should also be closed for vehicles from the Island to allow only buses for quicker evacuation of commuters from the Island.
AutosReduce Fuel Consumption By 75% by Cargoed(op): 12:30pm On Jan 02, 2012
In this season, here are some Basic Steps to Reduce fuel consumption

1. Air Conditioning
Having your air-conditioning switched on can add as much as 14% to fuel consumption.

2. Drag Factor
Effects of drag and increase fuel consumption. For this reason don't have windows open over 40mph.

3. Tyre Pressure
Under-inflated tyres have increased rolling resistance and increase fuel consumption - Also, increased wear

4. Green Credentials
Buy a car, which gives a good energy efficiency rating and the running cost that an owner can expect over a year
Also run a scan on your car to make sure it does not have any fault codes related to emissions and check that your exhausts has no licks.

5. Drive Gently
Avoid harsh acceleration and heavy breaking. Taking of too fast uses up to 60% more fuel.

6. Gear Changes
Changing gear at a modest engine speed - between around 2,000 and 2,5000 rpm - reduced fuel consumption by up to 15% So generally automatic transmissions consumes more but manual will consume much more if handled by a bad driver

7. Speed Limits
Make your fuel go further. Driving at 7mph uses 30% more fuel than at 50mph. Driving at 70mph along an expressway instead of 80mph can save[b] 40%[/b] every ten miles.

8. Start Up & Go
Drive off immediately when starting from cold. Idling to heat the engine wastes fuel and causes rapid engine wear. "Don't let your mechanic hear this he wil not believe". grin grin cheesy

9. Avoid Short Journeys
A cold engine uses as much fuel and catalytic converters can take miles to become effective

10. Switch Off
Stuck in traffic? Turning off the engine after two minutes will save fuel and cut all emissions

Okay lets hear yours which car has the greenest credential? i.e the cheapest to run.

hello
how much can i get it in Abuja ?
is the installation difficult ? do you need to come for it yourself ?
do you have any that works without Laptop ? do i have to carry my laptop with me all the time i need to scan ?
1)Price in Abuja is N22K last.
2)To use it, is as simple as ABC but the installation is a bit tricky, depending on how IT proficient you are. We have sold it and the buyer install himself in a few cases with phone support. So you can send someone to pickup.

3)At the moment only this, that works with Laptop as this is the best way to diagnose. It includes Engine and control monitoring which is not available on handhelds you can also print the result of your scan. Most handhelds will only do European or Japanese and not both.

4)Unfortunately yes you need to go with your laptop to scan, thats why your laptop has a battery. Its meant to be carried. For most customers this is the list of their worries. They don't like their mechanic "messing them up" they tell me.

Good day, please l'm interested in the acquisition of the disgnostic machine. However, l'll appreciate if you could oblige me with confirmation with information as to whether or not the machine would work on Volkswagen Vento 1994 CL Auto model salon car.
Your vehicle is pre 1996 so you should not be asking, however does it have the 16pin socket. I can almost certainly tell you that it is OBD1 unless on some rear models where 1994 has OBD11.

Anyway you need an adaptor for your pre 96 and we dont stock that. thanks

I will like to list private placements on my online billboard, the issue is how do i get interested parties to come onboard like brokers. If you know[b] brokers[/b] that have private placements please list them here. So we can put them together and setup some simple rules and regulation. I feel that there is a need for private companies to list before they go public. Contact dialcentre@ymail.com

@phill2011
PHIL2011:
Hello! Does your diagnostic kit work on a 1993 Mercedes-Benz S420? If not, is there a kit that can diagnose this older car?
First of all you did not mention whether your check Engine light is on? Are you a private user or mechanic?

You need to lookout for the small LED readout box. This blinks several times, the number of blinks should be recorded.

So for example if it blinks 6 times it means 1) idle controller inoperative. And you did not need any kit for that.

But remember that this was once MB top of the range model and they where fitted with up to 22 computer modules in it.

About Diagnostic kits when you want to buy try to follow this rule any vehicle below 98 is OBD1 any vehicle from 98 till today is OBD11

We supply OBD11 not OBD1.

BusinessRe: Do 80% Of Nigerians Truly Live On Less Than $2? by Cargoed: 4:17pm On Nov 17, 2011
@deneey thankyou very much. I will like to ask @Cooger how many days he can survive without a Job in the U.K even with income support. Please remember that the EURO zone is in a serious crisis. Your jobs are all going to china and social services are shrinking faster than you can imagine.

The west has a way of scaring Africans into submission, the issue in Nigeria is infrastructure thats all. No one is poor. That beans cake i eat with bread. If i exported it to you, i will sell it at USD10/meal so because i bought it from the "akara" woman for N50 does not mean Jack to you in the West. Seriously Coogar that plate of beans and rice is 15pounds in 805 a Nigerian restaurant in London . grin cheesy

So to invest in infrastructure the West wants you to borrow heavily from worldbank e.t.c and not depend on yourselves like the akara woman.

E.g if we where so scared of setting up mobile NETWORKS we would have hired Vodaphone or Orange network or AT&T but guess what we did it our selves that is now history. Now they are scaring us again ohh you leave on less than US2/Day what happened to malaria drugs and Glaxo we told them we don't need them, i can go on and on.

We leave in a global village now West, not a global Empire so lets talk don't chat rubbish. You want us all to carry VISA/MASTERCARD in our pocket before you will say oboy these guys are spending some money!!!

Check your car before and after taking it to the mechanic, in other to avoid any "MAGO MAGO"
That is to make sure the fault has been properly corrected and no knew ones developed.
