Even if I want to convert, nah me go do am or nah me go instruct them on their profession, I'm only telling you they will drill manifold and that's the only way to get into the combustion engine.
Shebi you've been hearing of people's engines mysteriously dying of CNG use after sometime?

Remember you just ringed your recently purchased engine undecided Why do you enjoy to always suffer yourself like this ehn broda benad huh Why?

Please to everyone else out there. I know I'm advocating for CNG conversion here and it is not a crime.

But please if you per adventure decide to go the conversion route. Try to know your engine. And be vigilant.

I also said there will be substandard conversions later on, I wouldn't want to type R I P for someone here for a CNG related accident.

Please if you are doing a CNG conversion, do not allow anyone tamper with any part of your intake or exhaust manifolds. They should drill right next to your injector holes.

Please take good note of the bolded above. It's very important.

Omoapena:
Guy, stop sounding like a fool, they will have to drill the manifold to create another inflow of gas into the engine, just as nozzle chamber have hole where fuel nozzles are placed for fuel inflow into the combustion engine, same way they will drill hole for gas nozzles...


I'm beginning to confirm you're nothing but a stupid serial troll here, there's no 1 you haven't trolled on this thread and it's beginning to make you look very stupid and foolish...
Okay 👍🏾

Please for the avoidance of Ignorance and to enlighten others here, I will make a few points available to those educated and flexible enough to learn 😉

1. What drives a modern Internal Combustion Engine? Air, Spark & Fuel

2. How is Air introduced into the engine? Via the INTAKE MANIFOLD

3. How is the spent Air discharged from the engine? Via the EXHAUST MANIFOLD

4. How is Spark generated? Via the Spark Plugs which sit directly over the piston heads in the cylinder chamber.

5. What part of the engine is sitting directly over the piston cylinder head chamber? The VALVE COVER

6. How is Fuel introduced into the engine? Via the holes drilled into the VALVE COVER into the CYLINDER HEAD to accommodate the INJECTORS

7. Where is the CNG gas therefore introduced into the engine to assist Spark and Air?

2. Exhaust manifold

What do you have to say about this?? .. monkey @ conner44. Bolt ambassador
erm, hello ooo 🙄

My options for them have already been stated above, let me mention it again

2RightHands1Cock and Sirchiboy (though both being newbies, and IN LAGOS ) should choose out of the 2 options below:

Find an avenue to borrow or repurpose funds towards converting their vehicle to run with CNG plus petrol

OR

They sell off their vehicles and repurpose the cash towards something else (i.e. that awesome thing that you've already got going on for you on 'your side' wink )

I believe there might be a 3rd option, but it totally depends on YOU angry i hate to sound like a broken record but YOU HAVE NOT STILL TOLD ME HERE HOW PEOPLE LIKE THESE TWO WE ARE TALKING OF CAN WORK SMART TO GET AHEAD ON THE JOB.

remember the keywords . . .

#worksmart
#ekobolt (not edobolt)

He can help us according to the theme of the thread and not start yapping on how drivers should give up and remain idle at home or beg for food undecided

Come to think of it, he's telling you all to give up while he himself has a business already booming lol 😆 he doesn't care if you have something else to fall back on as he does wink

Hmm, the way you talk at times always amaze me, I guess you're holding one political or government seat to be sure of this, price just went from 200 to 450, you should be asking what made the price shoot that high in space of 1 year when the percentage of people using CNG is like 5% compared to gasoline users, what will happen to the price if users increase to like 30%.




I remember when they were converting CNG kits for just 200k, now it's around 1m, ask yourself why that much increase, demands is shooting up the price and you think demand won't shoot up the price by the time alot of people switches, I still ask one question, what's the effect of CNG to the resale value of the car.
Look, let me state it here plainly for everyone to read and understand . . .

The price of petrol ⛽️ WILL STILL GO UP

The price of CNG too WILL STILL GO UP

The price of the conversion from petrol to dual petrol & CNG WILL STILL GO UP

The only things that would COME DOWN is the expertise in the conversion process and THE AMOUNT OF EHAILING DRIVERS STILL IN THE BUSINESS

The above points are a given 💯 and it will happen exactly as I've stated. So do you want to be the one always waiting for the price of something to COME DOWN and therefore DROWN or will you take the surfboard by its rudder and glide high above the tide till you get to whatever shoreline the waves carry you? 🏄‍♂️

Anyway, depending on your tenacity . . . You might still be complaining like you are currently doing till circa July 2027. Nothing will change for you except for the worse and ehailing will still be a business by then.

So why not give up now and save yourself the headaches down the road? Why do you want us here to give up along with you? Was anyone here connected to your placenta at birth? Why must you choose to drown with a crowd instead of all alone?

As you can all already witness . . .

The fire is getting hotter and the emilokan wind is blowing harder, all tress in the forest that are not flexible enough to bend will eventually be broken off their roots.

What makes you an educated person? It's the ability to UNLEARN and RELEARN, the ability to witness CHANGE and ADAPT to it because let's face a reality . . . The only thing constant in life is CHANGE wink

Well guys, that time for a change has come cool can you go along with it and adapt? Or would you chicken out like our triggered wacko jacko has been ranting here since 🤔

Nobody will do it for you, you won't find a knight in shinning armour anywhere here. Everyone is feeling the heat of governance and you're not alone in your fears BUT as human beings the world will not end even after you're dead.

Instead of choosing to give up and drown why not learn to RIDE the TIDE until you get to shore because you might never know . . . the SHORELINE might be closer than you think wink

Well, as I've opined before. It is high time we all start looking towards the CNG project. It is the ONLY VIABLE SOLUTION to the issues being experienced on the job today.

Do you have any savings? Why not borrow the balance and go to get your vehicle professionally converted to use both petrol and CNG? You can work this December and clear off most if not all of the loan by working hard and saving every kobo possible even while being a bit flexible to accommodate the family on Xmas eve/day. After which you pay off the rest of the loan and keep making your profits no matter what come from early next year.

So in essence all im saying is CNG conversion for ehailing workers is a Win - Win 🏆 🙌

Transportation is a necessity and VIP Transportation is a niche market that is not gonna dissappear anytime soon. Better evolve with it or get left behind. Since the app coys aren't ready to increase the rider fees then it's imperative that you as a driver reduce your fueling fees to compensate. Whenever the app coys get their senses back and do the needful you'd be making a double killing on your profits 📈

Win - Win 🏆 🙌

Of course those afraid of CNG can go get a smaller displacement engine vehicle 🙄. . . But for me, using over 5 million naira to buy a tuke-tuke starlet type of car is a huge NO-NO, I dunno about you though wink

Have a wonderful weekend ahead guys

Conner, abeg where can I get the OEM upstream air fuel sensor for civic 2010. I could manage without it before now, but under this extreme tinubulation I need all the fuel efficiency I can get from that wonderful car.
My brother cherish that car oh. It's now becoming a reality that having a vehicle with all these 1.6 - 1.8 liter engines is a necessity for us.

You won't get the NEW upstream sensor from any narket in nigeria and the TOKUMBO ones might work today and stop tomorrow even if you're lucky enough to get a good unit.

For something as important as the exhaust sensors I'd personally order a Chinese replacement from aliexpress. All the sensors and parts I've been getting from them have always worked 💪

Today another mechanic said the green key symbol on the dashboard is not suppose to be blinken, and until it stopped, car would not start.


Like this i Don tire.
Is this the first time you're experiencing this issue? Do you have a spare key that can kick the car?

You say you were in motion and the engine just suddenly tripped off? You didn't park first to do something? As in you were on motion and the engine cut off suddenly?

When last did an electrician work on the vehicle?
