look put your car back to the way the factory built the car, you should do a live data scan, the bad component will show up, ie if its one of the Wheel speed sensors yow will see it on the scan tool, because its reaction will be different from the other sensors then check the that sensor or the tone ring which it monitors.

Is Nigeria independent? Hell no, for example, if Nigerian were independent, the British would not have intervened in our war, that is the so called civil war, the way they did, they did what they did so they could continue doing what they did during colonialism, neo colonialism is very convenient than direct colonialism because it gives the west power but takes away the responsibility, so they do not have to keep on explaining to their people their evil actions In their colonies, it's very convenient, just look at buhari, every now and then he runs to England for what reason, your guess is as good as mine, all these nonsense happening In this country has been pre programmed by the brits .
PoliticsRe: hh by cocoduck: 8:12am On Mar 12, 2016
Things are the way they are because that is how our colonial masters wants them to be, for example, electricity, what is hard about generating electricity on a large scale, very little or nothing, we have a hot weather which is favourable to energy generation, all that is needed Is to convert it to electrical energy, but to us is a herculean and impossible task because the British will always scuttle any effort made by us to do any such thing, any form of restructuring will be at their own peril so they make sure we have people like buhari who are not favourably disposed to structural reform so as for them to continue eating our resources, this is called neo colonialism.

shedyman:
Thanks, I will do as advised. Very grateful.
It is wrong to do just as he said, you need to understand how this thing works and how it relates to other components like O2 sensors, ECT, IAT sensors etc to be able to diagnose what exactly is wrong with your car engine, yes if the maf is dirty it under reports the amount of air getting into the engine, while the O2 sensors report something higher than the MAF sensors then the computer acting based on the two different and incoherent reports so the engine performance suffers, Don't be lazy, try doing some research, you will be very glad you did, and I see some impatience in you, you will get nowhere if you continue like this, PO171 can be caused by many things not just the MAF sensor. Just type on the YouTube search bar THE SECRET OF ENGINE DIAGNOSIS: FUEL TRIM it will link you to Schrödinger's video about this lean code issue, just look at how I keep on saying fuel trim, fuel trim, it is very important you understand what it is and how it relates to P0171, don't be a parts changer bro, do some research, invest time on knowledge acquisition, it pays a lot, Mortal Kombat says there is no knowledge that is not power. I won't say it again.

Car TalkRe: Help With Where To Pirchase MAF Sensor by cocoduck: 4:06pm On Mar 11, 2016
look brother just avoid that kazzemer, he will destroy your car, PO171 means that there is excess oxygen or too little fuel, the usual causes of this is vaccum leak or the there is too little fuel getting into the engine, hence the hesitation, use a scan tool that can display fuel trim data and check the computer, for more and complete information, go to YouTube and search for Schrödinger's box and search for that video that is titled I think how to read or fuel trim, I have forgotten exactly the title of the video and I'm using my phone to type this, but it is a popular video anyways, just on YouTube search bar type schrodinger fuel trim, I am confident you will get the video, don't be in a hurry.
Car TalkRe: Help With Where To Pirchase MAF Sensor by cocoduck: 3:51pm On Mar 11, 2016
did the stupid kazeem read and interpreted the fuel trim data? did he simulate a vaccum leak to see if the oxygen sensor is responding accordingly? Before you spent a kobo on any MAF sensor, test it with an oscilloscope if you have one because if the sensor output is digital, then the multimeter will not be able to give you a reliable information, because the out put is in Hertz, just imagine like 2Khz, the meter will just give you a average which is highly unreliable. If you don't have access to an oscilloscope then just go to the live data on the scan tool then unplug the Maf sensor and see if there is any change, or better still go to YouTube. com and search scanner danner maf, or Schrödinger maf diagnosis, or South main auto Buick le sabre maf sensor diagnosis, and patiently pay a high level of attention to what they say, the videos are long and detailed. Then also on those channels search for fuel trim especially on Schrödinger's channel, the information they present are priceless. It will save you a lot of money.

The rate at which you IPOB hoodlums contradict yourselves is alarming. So you products of bestiality know that NOTHING GOOD COMES EASY yet your leaders are part of those sponsoring some low lives to frustrate the current adminstration with worthless propaganda. May God deal with all those that want the downfall of this country, regardless of the tribe they hail from. May they never know peace. They will continue to die shameful and extremely painful deaths. All those that do not want the country to progress will never come across anything good. Assorted misfortunes will continue to befall them and their families.
which country are you talking about? Take your Bible and read John 12:31, God himself will destroy and put an end to Nigeria, He has already forsaken this hell hole and the zoo has become the devil's own country, okay? Idi0ts like you come here on this forum to rant while the Fulani tribal mafia headed by Buhari the peodophile are using your fellow Nigerians as target practice, since I embraced Biafra, honestly speaking, I have been liberated from a lot of heartaches, misfortunes, and I now have a positive attitude because of what I hear on RADIO Biafra everyday, I no longer stress myself when my plans don't go accordingly, I rejoice when they do, that is to say patience, so I don't know which misfortune your are talking about. BTW, you cannot be an IPOB and at the same time be a hoodlum, where we meet is ruled by serenity and decorum, nobody says haaa! my akara or money or phone is missing, even if you lose something you will still get it back.

Car TalkRe: My Rx 300 Develop A Problem. Pls Help by cocoduck: 7:50am On Mar 09, 2016
a classic example of one or more cylinders not contributing to the power of the engine, since the engine is not running at full power the ECU will not permit you to change to certain gears so as not to destroy something in the Tranny, so run a scan and go from there, but sometimes the car clearly misbehaves but will not out put any fault codes so don't forget to check the live data and fuel trim data, make sure the person that scans your car can interprete live and fuel trim data. That is why it is good to change the coils as a set, but it might be another component, BTW how many miles are on your car's odometer? If more than 100 thousand, then it is normal that ur car has these problems.
PoliticsRe: Nigerian Must Be One, No Matter What Happens by cocoduck: 8:21am On Mar 08, 2016
americanigga:
My fear is often times intensified anytime I visit nairaland and see the diatribes that has encapsulated every conversation between the Igbos and the yorubas.
All you see is great hatred between the two tribes. While the Igbos and Yorubas are bussy insulting and betraying one another, the Hausas are mobilising and soaring very high politically.

Look at the Igbos for example, calling for the state of Biafra at a time they should be thinking of how to form political alliance with the Yorubas to take over power. The question is do they (Igbos) have the political and financial wherewithal to fight for an  independent nation. What has changed in the East from 1967 - 1970 when they tried to break up from Nigeria till date. Do they have the financial autonomy? Do they have backup for food supply? Do they have sufficient weapon? Do they have sincere backup from the Western nation or UN? These are some of the things they must consider first.

Other things they should consider is the lives of their people and their investment allover the country especially in Lagos. Like the place I used to live in Okeafa in Isolo Lagos, virtually all the gigantic buildings are owned by Igbo business men. All these will be a big lost if they decide to go to war.

One other thing I noticed is that when the Hausas or Muslims people are agitated they attack and kill non Hausas or non Muslims, to be more precise they kill Sotherners,( examples: most of the havoc in the North by bokoharam, recent disput in mile 12, even the fallout of the 2011 elections when Buhari lost to Jonathan). But when Southerners are agitated they attack and kill fellow southerners.To buttress this I tell you a short storry about the war, that my father told me.

My dad told me that during the war 1967 -1970, he was living in a federal government institution in the south south area of Nigerian. The institution was  made up of people of various tribes, ranging from The Calabars, The Urobos The Ijaws, The Itsekiris, The Igbos, The Benins, Yorubas, and some few Hausas. Just before the war some Igbos out of fear flew to the East, their homeland, but some out of ignorance stayed behind, thinking because they all knew each other in the community nothing would happen to them. When the war started, a deadly, blood thirsty, killing squad emanated, comprising of: the Calabas, The Urhobos, Benins, Yorubas, the IJaws, Itsekiris, and other tribes I can't mention all of them. They started going from one Igbo man's house to the other to check if they were still around. Those Igbos that stayed behind with their families were slaughtered, beheaded,  others were burnt alive, buried alive, their property looted.Some Igbos started running into the forest with their families. Some of them stayed in the forest throughout the war. Many died of Hunger, some were eaten by deadly animals, some had to kill their children for meal.
All these just because of one man, Odumegwu Ojukwu. Ojukwu was not a bad man, he only miscalculated just the way Nnamdi Kanu has miscalculated.

 Ojukwu allowed sentiment and anger to overhaul his sense of reasoning. He did not consider the life of his people. When he saw the reality on ground he took off abandoning his people. But it was too late, 2million Igbos had already lost their lives. Nobody was arrested for war crime. If the Igbos decide to fight for an independent nation, history will only repeat itself.
 
I watched a news of recent where the Americans donated various weapons to the Nigerian Government inspite of accusations of war crime against the Nigerian military in the North East, this is thesame American the Igbos are relying on. The Western countries are after their interest they will only support you if they have something to benefit. The federal government off recent displayed various weapons: Bomb detectors,  Armored cars, war jets. 

I want to use this opportunity to plead with the biafra hopeful, to forget about biafra, forget Nnamdi Kanu and form strategic, political alliance with the Yorubas or even the Northerners, just the way Azikiwe used to do it. They should think about how to start participating in mainstream politics, not isolating themselves, just because of an individual that has lost the election. Those who have ears let them hear.
an idiot1c non entity will just wake up one morning and start typing rubbish, no you will not start from the beginning but start were it suits your useless myopic agenda, no Gowan had no opportunity to avert the war, after signing the Aburi agreement he went back to Nigeria to deny he never signed anything, Gowan is the one to blame not Ikemba, Gowan is a war criminal and remain a war criminal till he dies, It is a very good thing that what happens in Mile 12 happend, and I celebrated it with a couple of drinks with my friends, Nigeria will know no peace and shall never progress, at least not ON THE BLOOD OR GRAVE OF BIAFRA.

Nigeria will never be great especially not on the blood of Biafra or Biafra's grave. If Nigeria is to be great then she need to accept Biafra as a reality, not necessarily Biafra being an independent state, no that is not a must, but Nigerians must come to terms with Biafra, no matter how inconvenient it is, and sit and talk and negociate the new way foward. At least, true federal system is enough to send Nigeria sky high.

lestat:
@ All Nairalanders, While i am also pissed at APC and Buhari for allowing the economy stall to this extent, let us all take sometime and actually look at what they have done!!
Nigeria spends less on the executive now, reduced number of ministries to those that are relevant, the armed forces is undergoing an over haul, the judiciary, and i am sure he will get to the police eventually.

While there is alot of uncertrainty and frustration everywhere, there is also a sense of purpose and direction, thats one thing i cannot say i ever felt under the Clueless one, or Yar Adua i felt same under OBJ.

Nigeria wasn't broken in 10 years, and she wont be fixed in 20 either. it will take years upon years of focused consistent governance along side a reorientation of the citizens.

Lets give Buhari at least two years, then i am sure we would have made up our minds whether to vote him again in 2019.

Lets reduce the yabs, jibes and criticisms instead lets start working on our individual mentality, start telling yourself, why you should not jump lanes carelessly while driving, start telling yourself that you shouldnt always think of bribe immediately LASTMA stop you, start telling yourself that you should slow down at zebra crossings and obey traffic lights even if its 3 am in the morning and no one is around. Start telling yourself you need to pay taxes more than you pay tithe, stop waiting for a miracle and start doing your part. Stop tossing trash anywhere just because you can. Instead of bribing phcn start paying your bills. stop looking for free browsing cheats and use only what u can afford. stop crossing the highways use pedestrian bridges.
Nigeria needs all of us to do our part so she can be great again

that is to say, your Benz stalls and dies when you decelerate, stalling at dece
l, check the fuel pressure and determine if its up to factory spec, during a deceleration, the ecm reduces the pulse on the injectors which reduces fuel supply to the cylinder to economise fuel consumption, so if no more fuel or very little is injected at that time, there will be excess air and little heat which will not be able to push down the piston and when it happens in all the cylinders then it is a general problem which I belive that it is low fuel pressure, so check the fuel filter, check the fuel pump.

mulattoclaro:
I've been observing and following the news on Nnamdi Kanu and Rev King for sometime now and I must admit I'm truly disappointed with the way both cases are being handled. Rev King was charged for murder and up till now he has not been hanged. It's so pathetic that some people have even being so shameless as to ask for his release. A man who brainwashed his followers to make them believe he was some messiah whereas he was nothing but a con-man whose area of specialization is religion. This Rev King shouldn't even be allowed to live amongst normal human beings. I was opportune to read some of the atrocities committed by this man and I was amazed as to how foolish people can be in this 21st century as to blindly follow a fake prophet without even thinking. He went as far as setting some people on fire. This is exactly how Jim Jones led over 900 blind followers to their untimely deaths by making them commit suicide under the guise of going to paradise. We all know how it ended.

Nnamdi Kanu on the otherhand, was busy operating an illegal radio, inciting tribal hatred using hate speech through his illegal radio, trying to annex the land of other tribes in his biafran dream, insulting a duly elected president, wishing death on other tribes, soliciting for funds to buy arms to fight a sovereign nation and calling an independent sovereign country a zoo. Nnamdi Kanu is also responsible for the death of innocent protesters that were shot by the Nigerian army because if he had not incited them through his radio, they would have still been alive. Nnamdi Kanu should be blamed for whatever has happened to anyone from the SE so far. It was his fault it all started.

Finally, the FG should ensure that Rev King should be made to face the hangman's noose. His case has no appeal. As for Nnamdi Kanu he should be hanged as well or given life imprisonment. No more no less. He should also be made to issue a public apology for his hate comments toward other tribes.

If u are more interested in practical and hands on aspect then u need polythecnic, going to either depends on ur area of interest. I for example am an automotive technician, I don't need to build a car but I need to know how cars work before I can repair one, and I am happy with the trade, so u must decide what u want to do and be good at it.

Car TalkRe: Please Help With My Toyota Corolla 2005 Engine Cos I Am Going Crazy Right Now! by cocoduck: 1:27pm On Feb 24, 2016
The second cylinder is not contributing to the power produced by the engine, hence the vibration. There are three things that must be present before the cylinder works as it should and they are spark, fuel and compression. U must test certain things to determine the missing one, go to yuotube and learn how to test for spark, if its present, remove the spark if plug of that particular cylinder, disable the the spark by unplugging the harness that connects to the coil( to avoid fire) then put a white paper in that spark plug hole, hold the paper there and crank or start the engine, then turn it off and check if there is a brownish liquid stain on the white paper, if xes then the injector is good and there is fuel, the check for adequate compression. Go to youtube.com and u will see how these things are done. And try to buy a compression gauge and check the specification for ur car before the test. I don't think it is the Fuel pump or low pressure because it should have been multiple cylinder misfires, and the blinking check light is normal because there is a misfire and running the engine like that will fry the cat.
