Use 1m to convert car wey the market value na 1m or slightly more...


Sleek

The ride has sentimental value to me. Plus its my project car as well.

ThatIgboBoy:
Omo you talk too much bro. This one na just typing u dey type. Imagine wetin you go dey use your mouth do. Easy abeg. I never see man wey type long epistle reach you. Easy biko.

I am a writer. It comes naturally for me.

I know most have issues with reading sha 😒 that's why I apologised at the end.

No vex e hia

cardoctor:
I would still recommend a professional to handle this job if not it may easily become messy. It shouldn't cost much on labour but remember to drain and refill the tranny fluid with the recommended spec.

It is a rather straightforward job for a DIY enthusiast.

1. Remove battery
2. Remove battery tray
3. Remove intake air filter box
4. Remove single bolt holding transmission filter bracket
4. Use angled needle nose plier to take off front and back transmission filter clips
4. Remove transmission filter

Reverse steps to replace and voilà . . . All done. Time 3 hrs tops (with beer break in-between)

Gazzuzz you must to convert my own vehicle oh, all these longer-throat you're doing us here won't be fair when I bring my car and you tell me 'sorry, I don't work on 2005 honda accords anymore'

I didn't bring it for you to repair, na just to convert otitan!

So what do you say? Are we who have aged or elderly vehicles (though still sound) also candidates for your CNG conversion expertise?

klenton:
Makes sense, I think I will take time to look for the exact gasket, another thing I want to know is if the top MUST be grinded when changing the gasket

Make sure you troubleshoot and repair whatever caused the overheating in the first place before you go zooming off from the mechanic garage with the repaired engine oh.

Just saying

oloyeagbaakin:
Good evening house, My Honda Accord EOD moves 251km with 20 liters of Petrol. Hope the car performed well?

You've got awesome mpg right there 👏 if what you said is true then your fuel system is sound.

Life is too short to be mad baba mi.

I know 😔

Its just that . . . why is it this same gang of people always tormenting others here. When people who want to help come here to give updates which they don't like they team up against them. Initially I thought it was because the information wasn't correct but I later realised it was because those peoples updates were making them feel very insecure.

I myself have never ever castigated this hustle. I always chip in whenever I can help with tips or information on things I know. I came here on this thread sometime in 2018 to learn from people on the job. I was silent until when dru23 started calling drivers here BROKE Which infuriated me into coming out of my shell to become vocal. Yes, I joined some others here to hound dru away for that singular reason (I believe he has changed today sha) and I won't apologise for it.

They say I troll, I tell lies, I don't drive, I don't own a car, I have never done ehailing before etc etc and even though it's all lies I don't mind. My own is why hound off the ones who were the major motivators dropping serious updates and content here only because you couldn't and haven't measured up to their own standards?

I mean, we are all here together as a community to learn and share information + resources aren't we? Yes, We do gbas-gbos, we bant, we laugh but it was all of a healthy nature until the troll came into the picture

People who were supposed to check him were shying away because they didn't want him to remind them of the names their own fathers christened them with, maybe they were ashamed of what their own faces looked like . . . So they let him have his run and now see what it has led to.

Why do you think I'm here yapping upandan and rubbing it into their faces? It's because I was the only one openly vocal about my disdain for that troll and his method of engagement here, many people who didn't like the way CheerfulGiver used his words or posted his dashboards also joined the troll in support but because karma never sleeps the troll later turned around to attack a few of those people who were initially hailing him behind the scenes. They never believed it would get to their own turn, now see what it has caused. Many of them are not active on any other section than this uber thread, they log in here, read the front page and then come to the business section to check for updates here and see if they can engage with friends online. Now all that has ended. Does it pain me? YES , does it pain them? DOUBLE YES although they would rather deactivate than admit it due to either pride or shame.

No be say na mouth, I've been a registered member of this forum since seun didn't even know his left from right, I have seen threads rise and fall over the years and when this one was heading the to the grave I began my campaign of trying to calm the storm. Remember when I was screaming here that "let us all learn to manage each other? Let those who want to drive keep driving and let those who want to work in a salaried way go ahead but allow the drivers be?" Anyone who has followed this thread for the past 2 years will know that everything I said here is the truth but because of the Nigerian in us we will rather die than admit it.

Yeye, that is the simple reason why I am now stark raving MAD and rubbing the consequences of those few peoples actions in their faces. I believe they represent a major percentage of people still coming here for updates since the main serious drivers have all ported to the telegram group (and they are understandably shamed to do so too) but it's okay.

Did anybody stop them from seeking salaried jobs? Did anyone castigate them for it? Do people tell them that they should resign by force? so why do they now shove their opinions of ehailing being a dead business down the throats of hardworking people here? just because they feel they have migrated to a better place or position in life? They were all newbies right here on this very thread once too and they were all accommodated and carried along, so why switch the theme of the thread now?

Life is in stages, I myself have a salaried job but I still know that the ehailing drivers too see their own jobs as the type that pays them what they feel is best for themselves and families at the moment. Why can't we all respect that? Why telling them to quit and learn a skill? Will you pay for the tuition? Who will be feeding their families and paying bills while they are taking all these courses to skill up ? You think life will pause for them to achieve those skills? Ahn ahn . . . Let's empathise with those who can't even get the time of day to attend class or to focus long enough to read books for hours everyday to learn new skills. It is not easy, even if you have the brain then what of the time? Everyone is not in the same position or situation in life.

Let me stop here jor, my bile is being reserved for the people who I highlighted in the post below according to the famous Gabrinchi

Those ones are always unhappy whenever the read my posts here. I will not blame them but I won't stop peppering them with the truth

* * * *

Sorry for the long read people . . . Sometimes I get carried away when I'm passionate about writing something.

YeyeGbami:
e b lyke say i don offend you before, no vex boss.

Ahh, no naw yeye, you are one of the realest niqqaz I admire on this thread.

You have no problem. You are here for the vawulence, always have . . . Always will. You dont start it neither do you end it. You never fail to make it known too. Your character has always been steadfast and that is why I doubt I will ever have issues with you here.

You be my guy for real, no just think am go far

Omoapena:
Park one side bro..


Not in for all the dramas.

Typical

a clear conscience fears no accusations

Enjoy 😉

Omoapena:
Leave that delusional man alone....



Me that I'm always a step ahead in everything I lay my hands on.

He said he was motivating me then, lol🤣🤣🤣

Oga he's delusional

Mr. I'm 10 steps ahead

Baba Nobody motivates me

Have you slithered away like the snake that we all finally see that you are?

I thought you will say otherwise so I will ask you to set some money for a bet so that I can go and lift mine and your posts from last year and paste here for everyone to see who the liar is between us.

Thankfully seun in his limited wisdom understood most of us have very short memories hence his reason for leaving our posts history for everyone to see. 😆

I'm still waiting for you sha, remember I'm the delusional one here according to you 😏

northbird:
You have the time to draft an epistle on HP matter wey no concern you.
How are you different from the trolls you are accusing on the platform?

Look at your contributions on this platform and tell me if you don't fit the description of a troll too.

Hahahaha 😆

Hatred, jealousy and envy will not kill you . . . say a big amen for me on your behalf

Omoapena:
Hahaha
Motivational speaker, thanks for the motivation, you really uplifted my spirit, if it weren't for that your motivation, probably Djdamian would have retrieved the car or I wouldn't have been able to complete the deal...

🤣🤣🤣🤣

So you agree that I motivated you now?

That I didn't laugh at you? Abuse you? Curse you?

I just want you to be clear for posterity sake.

Omoapena:
🤣🤣🤣🤣


You were motivating and supporting me?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No oh, I was castigating you and abusing you.

Mschew

I know the group of people that my posts always used to PEPPER THEIR EYES lol 😆

I will keep on peppering you guys with my words. It hurts I know, but there's no other way the truth feels once it is embraced.

Kiss it . . . It is the simple Truth 😌

northbird:
Why are you crying more than the bereaved? Is it your HP?

Is it your cry? Is it your tears?

Better face your front if you have nothing better to say to me.

Pearl1910:
To everyone, let's just keep doing what we are doing, newbies and neutrals are seeing for themselves the real character and intentions of people on the thread. The ones that are here for serious business, the jesters (unserious and cruise catchers), the ones on a mission to utterly discourage others, thinking that if drivers are fewer it will be better for them (gutter mentality) and the ones just here to hate on others because of their frustrated lives.

It is very clear. That is why the serious ones are porting to Telegram. These ones who have side hustles and salaried jobs won't allow the basic drivers see front. See that one above who is making noise about earning N400k in December telling salary earners to s'kill up' . . . lol When basic drivers were earning more than double of that in the same month. Ask him how much his job's salary is and see how he will shenk the question.

Such a wicked human being.

One chronic complainer who was saying harsh things about ehailing, but was steadily paying for his car on HP and even bought another car to put on thesame ehailing that he said was dead. To me thats witchcraft.
This teaches us a very popular lesson. And I hope we are all taking notes.

This one was someone who I was supporting and motivating, even helping when he was crying upandan here concerning his former partner and his vehicles fuel consumption. The man later turned around to attack me. Whenever I see him posting I just smile and wonder less why we as nigerians are allergic to making good decisions whenever election time arrives.

The people are the problem and not the government. It is very evident even from observing the trends being set on this very thread.

It is well.

YeyeGbami:
Uche uche, you know it pays more because na you be him account officer.

If it didn't pay more then why do you think he put himself and his hustle on the line when he singlehandedly tried to instigate a city wide protest against the ehailing coys using their own app?

It's basic common sense.

YeyeGbami:
Make una dey mention names

I pray they do. We get all their receipts and dem know.

A year ago, just to prove a twisted point . . .

Somebody, with his black bald head and protruding stomach went to snap his blue Toyota corolla and posted the pictures here telling people that he will be giving it out on rentals for N40k weekly. Almost 10 different people contacted him concerning the offer but he ghosted all of them

Ask him why he made such a post and he will tell you 'it was cruise' pulling such a stunt, when hungry and willing people were hoping for a shot at making food available for themselves and their families is the highest form of wickedness I have ever encountered on this forum. I called it WitchCraft and I was justified time after time whenever someone else came here as a newbie to request the amount to request for rentals and that same person always gave a useless and unrealistic amount

The person knows himself. Cruise, na wetin him talk say him dey always find come this thread. Now we are leaving him and his cruise and he is crying 😢 even me self tire for him matter.

jceesquare:
I hope he takes this serious.

Me too

mejai:
Where is Pearl1910? I hope he is alryt. It has been long his voice was heard.

Our resident troll hounded him off the thread In his usual manner. Worse thing is that everybody was seeing it happen but nobody said a word condemning it . The cowardice, hate and envy on this thread is thick enough to be sliced with a knife.

If i were pearl I won't return here till we stop being hypocrites and start hugging the truth if not it will all happen again.

Just look a page back and see the troll still behaving in his usual manner, you believe this thread will survive with such a character running amok on it? . . . Time will tell.

Omoapena:
I'm curious to ask, how is the thread dead?

No oh, this thread is not dead . . . Don't mind me.

This thread is bubbling, this thread is on 🔥, this thread is the best thread on nairaland today

You can keep being curious, when we are all ready to pull our collective heads out of the sand we will get answers to our individual questions.

When I was fighting for the life of this thread where was your voice? when the troll came with his lies and deceit what did you do? You stayed silent and cheered him on right? Well, now the thread is DEAD. Write anything you like, reality will keep staring you in the face.

If you want to join the telegram group it is still open. You know what to do to get added. No need to be bitter or jealous about it.

But if you are among those who contributed to the demise of this thread and get added in there just take a cue and read to learn silently just exactly as the troll has been doing for a year now and everything will go smoothly for you.

Otitan this is 2024. There is literally no time to waste time.

When they came here as newbies, asking questions, making mistakes, seeking opinions . . . Everybody carried them along

Now they have become agba's , they have the knowledge and blueprints and are now bonafide hustling drivers with onions and guess what? They want the thread dead to newbies

What you previously enjoyed, now you want nobody else to enjoy . . . And you think the God we all individually serve won't keep your own stew on fire 🔥 to be served hot hot?

I still remember when I was here and they were calling someone Ikeja-Manism 😆 by the same people he is hyping now. Oh heaven thank you for blessing humans with short memories.

Na wah

But don't they have toilet inside their house? The little girl wanted to use the toilet and they instead sent her to the Bush behind their house

Why cant these people build propee houses with toilets inside? Nownsee how people's keep getting kidnapped and used for rituals all because of a lack of toilet.

What about the latest bouncing Mercedes benz suvs?

Kai! So sad

Is it because the ransome was taking long to be repaid? Did the police try to do some 'hostage negotiations' that went south? Did they use fake money to pay the ransome? Was their ransome underpaid when the kidnappers counted it? Were they stalling in the ransome payments? Did the girl try to stop them from raping her or her sisters?

Lots of unanswered questions I pray the rest come out alive.

ManirBK:
May it be more cheaper than expected.

Is this your prayer point?

Just passing by . . . Poaching the serious ones . . .

Leaving the rest to engage in the cruuuuuuise

Hopefully this year una cruise go pick up, last year was disappointing

We will keep checking sha ✔️

And poaching too

Enjoy the thread

Pecoleee345:
If talks like this are said out of sincere mind honestly I would concur but it always out of hate for dangote and Nigeria.

I'm just being realistic bro. No need to start shivering.

Remember THIS IS NIGERIA
