timenamoney:
the chart am talking about is the ambient temperature table diagram chart that show -13 <-------------5w30-------->+38

the only thing I have learned from you is that oil is elactic after some research base on its process of changing viscosity

Oh ok you thought I was chatting shyte right? FYI Im a fluid Mechanic .

9icetoo:
So according to op, we should all be using SAE 40 or SAE 50 oils. Nigeria has only one weather, hot. Rarely ever drops below 20 degrees celsius except in the northern parts at nightfall or in the high mountains ranges like obudu at nightfall.

Well, whoever thinks he ought to go with the op against the manufacturer s advice only has himself to blame when the inevitable occurs.

40 weight oil in engines made with very high tolerances and even tinier oil galleries and plumbing. I just shudder at the thought of the stress and wear going on in those engines.

5w30 is a goal for my rides. Hasn't failed yet.

Those guys like the OP and this one arguing with me are same ones who will fail Arithmetic and also copy and fail correction from blackboard!

timenamoney:
bo bo juice , see as u dey call big big motor name ,na the Peugeot them use give you example of car with oil temperature gauge , ok for me to believe u send me 2007 range front bumper to PH

Slipers get range if you look my profile you go see the 2013 range and E dey PH like dis

Pls I need a quote on how much it will cost to convert Honda CR-V 2010 model to Left hand drive, I'm in Lagos.
You can reach me on ajiehchudi@gmail.com

I always encourage homeowners to hire block molding machine or make a special arrangement with those who have it when they have larger projects.

The huge savings is worthwhile.

______
Pics below show some of the blocks produced for our projects in various locations. I have more confidence in these blocks than most blocks in the market.

Pic 1: Ibadan (16,000 pcs)
Pic 2-4: Lagos (18,000 - 35,000 pcs)

True, but at times you might not have space coupled with the fact that you now have to deal with too many people, from sand suppliers, water supplier, cement supplier, moulder, carry man, .Some times the manpower put in by the Landlord superseeds the saved revenue if he is to mould,give a good block supplier spec and get it delivered to site arranged!

aedeha:
Please i am looking for this timing chain adjuster for honda accord mine is broken

ask radautoworks

Dijita:
I agree with your recommendation the most except buying blocks. He ought to mold blocks since he is not in a rush; most especially when he is building on budget.

I started my project by buying all sand needed to mold blocks. Then water pump and water storage tank
few months later bought all estimated sands and granite
I only bought irons and cements when it's time for foundation
I didn't feel any pinch from German to lintel because I am only buying cement as sand and blocks are already on ground

At times buying of blocks is a better option! if you have a large build

Kingdemu:
Nawao...[s] How I come tek be the OP again? Well, make una settle una issue I don commot for here[/s].

lubish

Kingdemu:
Pardon me but it appears you are new to Car Talk hence don't know who erico2k2 is when talking cars, right? Cos I don't think he should be among people to be "shamed" for not having a feel of what a modern car is.

Well done the joker, why do you use two user name to attack one person, or you recon I dont know you are same person you quoting

timenamoney:
1)short answer to it question is NO it doesn't matter (question = ) why would it not matter when engine manufacturer oil chart say other wise
2) All fluid has elasticity ( answ =) no, oil is not ruber and can not be elastic , car fluids has no elasticity rather they have viscositys or viscosity improvers
3)Oil are more effective at max engine temp (question =) engine and oil temp is 100 degree ,(1) what max temperature range can 30w viscosity oil accommodate above 100degr ? (2) what viscosity will 30w be above it's normal operating Temp , up to 108 degr instead of 100degr

Seriously, Ok what chart are you talking about? meanwhile howcome we drive the same car in Poland and same car in Nigeria and the same Oil specification is required for car lub? My RRS is 5W30, the same with my Guy in Russia which is meant to be colder? If you do not know the meaning of Elacticity and think it is limited to elastic as per rubber then you have no busniness arguing in anything to do with tech!

timenamoney:
you may consider having one so you can participate in trends like this, which you do not have any clue about

Bro no offence,I cant drive a peugeot of any model!me preference! talk BMW, Audis and |Range rovers, we are game!

EngRichie:
Scientifically, there is element of truth in your submission.
Viscousity is one of the properties needed for better protection. Also, any oil will thin out more under higher conditions of temperature, load and shear stress but the synthetic oils thin out more slowly.

However, recent advancements have allowed the use of lower viscousity oils while still offering good protection.

Sometimes, when we consider viscousity, there is compromise between best protection and best fuel economy and this is where some manufacturers are silent and users are innocent.
In some vehicles, it is not out of place to upgrade to next higher viscousity grade because of high temperature, high speed and high load driving. In some other cars, it is okay to stick with manufacturer recommendation because of the engine's design and a good controlled cooling system.

Bro simply put if you buy a brand new car and its warranty is for 5 years and its Oil requirement os 5W30 and on year 4 you use 10W40 and something happens to your Engine you wont get a replacement, I have seen this happened B4

timenamoney:
you are nothing but a joke, pls tell us what we have here

The joke is on you mate who claims there is summer in NIGERIA!
9ja has Raining(Wet) and the Dry season, I dont know where you get this your wanna be abroad mentality of Summer from, The west have Summer/Winter/Autom, so you my friend must be extreemly Ignorant! the average temp in 9ja at its lowest is like 20, which is summer for us!

SeyiOmoOba:
IF YOU GOT A GENUINE THIRD PARTY INSURANCE CERTIFICATE FROM A REPUTABLE INSURANCE COMPANY, IT COVERS BOTH YOUR VEHICLE AND THE 'OTHER VEHICLE'
AT LEAST I KNOW OF LEADWAY ASSURANCE.

you are xtreemly ignorant, PLS stop, if you do not know say so, 3rd party covers just the 3rd Party not your car!

you are talking of outer temp that in any case will be less than 50 Degs, the working temp of a car is 90 Degs I think.So if we where to live in a cold climate ie winter infested or in the Artics, Warmth would be premium,

ULSHERLAN:
Even with the OPEC restriction, Nigeria still produces over 1million BBL of crude daily and I doubt Dangote's refinery can refine up to that daily.
Secondly, lets assume the refinery has a capacity to refine more than our daily crude production, do you know that neighboring oil producing countries will prefer bringing their oil here due to cheaper logistic and all than taking the product abroad?

Either ways, it is a win win situation

Ok but did you see what i asked in my last post?

Dem go stop?

bereiweris:
sorry wasn't referring to the depth but the distance from my borehole. thanks sir

i thought as much

bereiweris:
thank u sir. so can i say the 10ft is k?

I think so. this is what 10ft looks like

PHOTSEE:
More shot you are done. more morter in for your building ooo

Thanks

Phylife:
Precast and the other which is better (durability)?

Oga spyder880 over to you

EgunMogaji2:
We give thanks my oga.

I’m reducing my elaborate window sizes. When I was in Los Angeles 6 X 5 windows were the thing, now that I’m in Nigeria and looking at N1.5M estimates for windows, Son Of Man had to caution himself and reduce

But we move, no time.

I jst came to peep now I saw, Im going bck

omanzo02:
Anything less of steady energy supply would be progress in futility.
The world is moving toward synchronised network system, where things are remotely control from distance. During the lockdown children were following visual lectures at home with their teachers/lecturers, if there is steady power supply Nigeria students could have benefited with the same system and wouldn't have be lagging behind as the case now.

true,the govt of the day is over looking teh Energy sector in this rregard,

ULSHERLAN:
Does that takes it away from being privately owned?

not at all sir however check this, as a Business man going by the way things stand would you invest your 85% of money i nto the OIL sector like yesterday??Do you think you can secure creditors for the oil sectorwont you hold your money until the uncertinty i n the oil sector blow past?

spyder880:
As far as possible. Same goes for water wells. But as you are choosing sides, check with your neighbor's to see if their own soakaway over the fence is not at your preferred borehole or water well side .

ahaha this is true, imagine you sink a hole only to discover nxt fence has a ceptic tank, mine is i n front of my house in the middle lol 1st thing I did so as not to buy water for the building work

spyder880:
Parapet, ah, your are almost there with the completion of the carcass. Which type are you choosing to do, in situ cast or pre cast?

pre Cast, I think I got better design via this method

spyder880:


My Ogas, how is your sides.

nah U be Oga ohhh, we dey push am dey go ohh, my build is at ur speciality stage parapet we dey do the kobo kobo build dey go as our Oga teach us on here, we all come frm Ijebu now via nairaland

Kingdemu:
2004

you mean this
I have not own this b4

EgunMogaji2:
I remember Spyder880 laughing at us back then

We didn’t know about it

Abi ohhh he knew the exact trap we were going to walk into hence he was laughing

SerikinGamo:
I live in Nigeria and there's nothing like summer here

you dey live for the wrong part, where that guy dey live Summer dey

Kingdemu:
One of my cars has one. It's a Peugeot 206cc

what year?

ZIMDRILL:
if there is no leak then your headgasket is gone

there is lots of misinformation here

Whether double radiator or not that wont stop a car from overheating if there is leak or if the headgasket is gone

1st i suggest you get a UV dye to check for leak


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDuGeQnMOzk&ab_channel=ScottyKilmer

2 do compression test

i feel you bro, u are right two cell or waht not wont stop over heating, however those Online Mechanics who give advice that suggest one should ulter the measured parts o n a car are the ones Im all against.its these same group that make others wire their fan direct long term Nah THEM
