You should understand the dynamics of the Nigerian economy. Do we even use a car for the lifespan of a genuine sparkplug? The one's who have wet sparkplugs probably have worn piston rings due to roadside oil used for servicing.... I don't see such buying "the sparkplug" you're promoting. Word of advice... Let car breakers overseas help you with used sparkplugs enmasse therein lies your market
No jokes, Nigerians actually do want to do the right thing, the information gap is the problem. You will be amazed to know how much people are willing and are spending on repairs.

New spark plugs are not targeted at people who want to use thier cars for 6 months, or prefer to use black oil in their vehicles because it is cheaper, or black oil in the axle because of share ignorance. 5 Years from now, a 2006 Corrola will still be shipped in wrapped with nylon and will still look pristine. Why? They are not ignorant with repairs. Same corrolla bought now, and with this same uniformed repairs ideaology wont be road worthy in the next 5 years.

There are parts, buying used is cost effective, Plugs is not one of them

Most likely culprit is a worn steering rack. Replacing your steering rack should solve that. It is important to do that as soon as possible to avoid an accident.



Hmmm... Sway bar or sway bar links (aka 'linkage')?

You probably meant to refer to bad sway bar links, in which case, there car responds to steering but sways from side to side after sudden, sharp turns. Can also make one easily lose control of a car.

Bad sway bar bushings usually cause 'clanging' noise.
You are right, i wanted to infer stabilizer linkage

Yeah, toks over Naija used any day anytime.
Talking from experience, most Naija hardly sell car if it's not giving them issues.


For instance once a car starts misbehaving next thing you will be advised is to sell it as if that will make the problem disappear, forget about all these phrase of I need to upgrade or I am in need of money all na wash.
No truer words. Cars become a part of you with usage. Letting go is always hard, unless it is robbing you of your peace of mind. This does not just apply to Naija, worldwide.

Most of the vehicles we bring in are salvaged, accidented, or high mileage at points where repair cost increases. They were sold for a reason. The unfortunate but good tale is, while oyinbo has given up on the vehicle, they are still ayorkele and got life.

Nigerian used - argh! lipsrsealed.... There are still sane people that maintain their vehicles though, those ones are a steal, and will probably sell to family

Thermostat has been removed.

Very likely fan has been connected directly.

Replace thermostat, revert cooling fan connection to factory spec, else you will cry when subsidy is removed.

Be sure you car does not have overheating history.
If it's not broken, dont fix it.

History of vehicle will determine if he should revert. Or else, his mechanic go just dey use am as example of people who take advice online and get burnt

Hey guys
I just got a naija used 2001 nissan sentra.
Car drives perfectly well including the gear selects well but I realised the service engine soon light is on and also when I turn just the ignition "on" the O/D light blinks some many times and then finally goes off, I decided to quickly run a scan on it and got P0740 fault code on it.

I am confused, the gear selects perfectly well without any sign of slipping, Jerking, stalling etc

Meanwhile for those of us that uses torque pro...the fault code displayed on a lemon background on the interface as against the red background i know it displays

Any advise will be highly appreciated

If any of this are ok, you might be having a wiring issue or faulty transmission that will require replacement

The average life of engine oil is what? Maybe 3500-10000miles. Also, during its life, it collects dirt, sooth and particles that make it unusable in another engine.

For plugs, the average life span in a good engine is atleast 30000 and can be up to 100,000miles. What ever carbon deposit it collects can be cleaned. So it can be used in different cars during its life span.

Yes, substandard plugs are a problem, I have seen one melt.

My issue with toks plugs is getting the right spec.
This true

Copper spark plugs will do an average of 10,000 to 20,000 miles, platinum as high as 100,000

The source of toks spark plugs are used vehicles with over 100,000 miles on them, if the plugs were recently changed, or out of service life, you cant ascertain. The option is reasonable when, quality new plugs are out of reach. 8 out of 10 toks plugs are out of service life, the evidence of leaks are cleaned to make one think otherwise.

Like i already posted, and listed prices, quality new plugs are not out of reach and are affordable
