Topic: Need help with cost of engine

Random jobless poster: That's why I love my private jet engine. It can overheat 20 times and still be working fine

No be craze be this?

Why would you say it’s crazy?

Someone came here and posted that he is looking for a replacement engine because the one he had got totaled after just 1 unfortunate overheating episode. . .

Another poster came and said that’s why he prefers his own engine because it’s still going strong after several overheating episodes . . .

Note the singular fact that the op didn’t outright ask for the price of a new engine but also stated the conditions that led to him sourcing for such engine

Shettima was talking thrash and wasting the program’s airtime so they had to stop him. Why will he leave the obvious question they asked him and start drawling on and on about something else entirely?

Don’t you think you’re the one actually in denial?

Owopariola001:
Lol.

Go do your wedding on Monday in SE if them born you well.

Who will even come? Your bride and parents will desert you that day.

We're not talking about Parlor weddings o.

Cassavani urchin, weddings usually take place on mondays in Anambra till tomorrow. I know it’s not in your nature but try to travel and see.

Read novels una no go gree

How would your grammar now improve?

Owopariola001:
Lol.

The Shettima's daughter's recent wedding, where was it conducted?

I tell you, you Obituarists are zombies without knowledge of what's happening around you except what they feed you.

Agbadorian Urchin, so you mean wedding ceremonies do not hold in Anambra State anymore?

They are simply scouting for new virgins and underage wives

9jatriot:
At last, someone who understands logic has responded logically albeit with a question.

Now to your question, the answer will be very few southerners, but I believe if it was a Northern event, many Northerners will attend.

I hope many of you guys up there will learn from you how to respond to questions logically.

Now to your original question in your opening post, the answer will be very few notherners, but I believe if it was a southern event, many southerners will attend.

it’s usually funny while staring into the mirror and seeing hypocrisy staring right back at you

LegendHero:
Without that coat, how will Shettima keep trending till today?

Atiku was there, he no trend.
Obi was there, he no trend.

After almost 24hrs, na Shettima dey trend. Thanks to his coat.

One day you tinubu supporters will allow your candidates to go out naked in public just to justify their trends

9jatriot:
I wonder how many of those lawyers would have attended that event if it was hosted in Anambra State on a Monday.
Even Peter Obi would have conveniently found an excuse not to attend.

How many lawyers would have attended that event if it was hosted in Borno State on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday? Even on Sallah or Christmas Day self?

Even Shettima would have conveniently found an excuse never to attend.

DaveDGreat:
Una don come ooo! What happened to Ngor-Okpala again now?

No nothing oh lol

It’s just that before uzodimma became governor and ipob/esn/ugm began their activities in the state it was always Ngor-Okpala that had the most stubborn youths in the state

Why always Orlu/Awo/Mgbidi/Ihiala? Why is this always happening in that side of the state? Out of all the local government areas why them?

I always thought Ngor-Okpala was the most restful area in Imo state but now I’m starting to think differently

equity2genesis:
Same issue with mine.

@ Conner44 and other Gurus.... kindly advice, please.

It’s a common problem in these gearboxes but it’s easy to fix. Read this post below to have an idea of the issue

Am new here, Pls any clarification on Honda DC, I want to buy the car buh av been a fans of civic for lik 4years, am planning to upgrade to Dc. Av been hearing the leg pulling and transmission problem, wil be glad if guru in d ouse can guide me

The transmission issue affected mostly the V6’s from 2003-2004. So discussion continues is okay both the 4cyl and V6 gearbox wise.

For ball joint issue just change it once every 2 years if you I’ve in an area with extremely terrible roads.

Neyoh90:
Good day house, I have a tapping sound on my EOD 2003 engine and a serious leak around the VVT solenoid.

I have replaced the VVT solenoid a couple of times and the problem still persists. I use about 5litres oil (5W20 as stated on owners manual) for every 600-700 miles.

At this point, oil will already be below the second hole on the deep stick. I stay in Lagos.

Mechanics in the house guide a brother.

What engine is in your vehicle and what exactly is the issue?

Is it the vtc?

Is it the leakage?

Please how much can I get windscreen for Honda Accord 07

No clue

Chai! Be like say foodstuffs don finish for dru mama kitchen

But, this is madness taken too far. Where is the freedom of association & movement?

You’re free to associate or move about but impersonation is a big crime especially when it’s done to hoodwink the entire Nigerian populace into doing something they were not willing to do before

Thurmieee:
The oil has been reducing little by little and the water na everyday I dey top am...... sometimes it can overheat while driving..... I'll have to wait and open the radiator and refill

From the story you’ve told me I’d not suspect the head gasket just yet although there’s a probability it might come to fixing finally. As far as your vehicle does not smoke to cause the engine oil shortage then there’s some little things you should do first before paying someone to dismantle your engine to get to the head gasket as it’s supposed to be the last resort.

First make sure both your cooling fans are functioning properly and at the correct speed. Change their engines if you haven’t already done so.

I hope you’ve not removed your thermostat yet, if you’ve still got a thermostat installed in your engine then I think it’s time you changed it to another one in case the one in there has begun to fail gradually.

What’s the condition of your radiator now after the fix? Has it not occurred to you that there might be some internal leaks or structural damage that is blocking water passages? If I were you I’d go ahead and change the radiator, anything that makes a component to melt in it means something else unseen must have deteriorated too. Also make sure the water hoses to and from the engine to radiator are all structurally sound without any cracks or leaks at their joints or in their body.

If you’ve done all the above and there’s still an overheating episode (and bubbles still show in your radiator when you start it up in the mornings) then you should schedule your engine for a head gasket change asap and reduce the frequency you use it until you do so.

Thurmieee:
My honda civic is having heating issues....the temperature gauge rises after prolonged driving or after driving with the AC on full blast for long.
Also if I start the car and open the radiator there are bubbles there.

Did your engine ever overheat badly before these issues started re-occurring? Bubbles appearing in the radiator when the engine is first started when cold is a telltale sign of head gasket leaks.

What’s the condition of your engine oil and radiator coolant/water? Do they look normal? Do their level change with time? Do you add coolant to the radiator frequently? Is your engine oil level at the usual guage?

WycliffeSMB:
Good morning House.

Is it possible possible to change Front wheel Bearings without changing the Hub entirely?
Are both different components?

Pls I need Advice!

The car is a Honda Odyssey 2001 model.

Yes you can change the bearings without changing the hub.

WycliffeSMB:
Please what's the normal consumption Rate for Honda Odyssey 2001 model?....
And what's the easiest way to calculate it on my vehicle?

An easy way to check your mpg is by first taking a jerrycan (like your old engine oil can) and going to a petrol station to buy 4 liters of fuel.

Put the jerrycan in your boot.

Then take your vehicle for a drive and keep going until the orange reserve light on your fuel guage lights up.

Once the reserve light has lit up immediately find a place to park your vehicle and take the fuel you bought earlier and pour it into your tank

Go back into your vehicle and before driving off first take a picture of your odometer with your phone (or simply reset your trip counter A or B)

Once you’ve noted the figures on your odometer then you can go ahead and start driving your vehicle. Drive it until the orange fuel gauge reserve light comes on again

Immediately the reserve light comes on find a place to park and take another picture of your odometer (or the trip computer if you reseted it before) and note the mileage/distance you have driven with the 4 liters you poured into the tank earlier.

Once you have noted down both the before and after mileage figures of your vehicle using the 4 liters of petrol you can then go ahead to calculate your fuel consumption by ;

subtracting the BEFORE mileage from the AFTER mileage and dividing your answer by 4 which will be equal to your vehicles fuel consumption by kilometers/miles per liter

If the calculation is confusing to you then just do the experiment and take the pictures with your phone and post it here so we can help you calculate it.

Remember that the pictures to take are your odometer readings immediately your reserve light comes on before you poured in the fuel from your jerrycan and the odometer reading after the fuel light comes on again immediately you exhausted the fuel you poured into the tank.

the normal consumption rate for your 2001 Honda Odyssey is 7kms/L from the factory

Feli you don come again.

I was feeling sleepy and just turned of my laptop to get some rest.
But I just developed migraine, trying to understand this your story.

My brother, feli matter na panadol we go dey take dey follow am

LeoDking can never change

Chai! So this story I read here some weeks ago is true?

Demor1:
it will vibrate before getting off but its ususally in the traffic

Oga go and service your throttle body, carbon buildup must have clogged up some passages there.

I hope it’s not a newly installed/refurbished AC system?

baconline:
U have 10 litre reserve, so I think u used 12 litres b4 the car stalled

No it’s not a matter of reserve. That’s why I initially inquired as to the method he used in determining his tank was empty before adding the 2 liters he bought from the black market.

The usual fuel consumption of this vehicle is 9kms per Liter average so since he topped up 2 liters and drove strictly on the highway without any hold up or traffic he would have a better mileage hence the 3 extra kms that EazyMoh posted about , his vehicle has normal highway mileage.

The issue is his vehicle has no functional O2 sensors, this will make his city (stop and go) mileage very bad unless he does something about it. On a highway with steady moderately open throttle position (via the sensor) seen by his brainbox the cars computer will use preset values to administer fuel and air but when he’s in a city traffic with fluctuations in his throttle position sensor input his brainbox will not be able to compute the right mixture of fuel thereby making his vehicle run super rich.

Pelicanmedia:
so 21.3km on 2 litres is good or bad was on high way

On a highway it’s normal fuel consumption.

But since your oxygen sensors are not working you will continue to have terrible fuel management in the city traffic.

So unless you plan to always be driving in highways you’d better do something about your sensors.
