I will give you N10,000 (Ten thousand naira only) if you can identify were I told OP to ring his engine.
first off, I don't use naira, if you can pay in POUNDS £££ then mayB I can dive into this foolishness you started.
secondly, it was you who assumed opening an engine with a view of fixing it amounts to RIGING in your school of thought.
I can bet any money the parts needed to fix that car's engine brand new might not be more than N300k

Even worn out oil seals would cause engines to smoke and if the seals can be properly replaced, no issues. This is different from your Liberty case and the Lexus'

The man has already worked in the engine and is about to embark on a second missionary journey. Allow the man to buy another engine nah. Pity him small

I hope you won't create a new moniker to start complaining about that Liberty Jeep when the engine starts smoking again grin


UPDATE: Since you want to play the language game. I don't know what you mean by RIGGING an engine tongue
I copied that from you cos you were the one telling OP to Ring his Engine, so I am asking you to explain your method or are you not the one advocating cost-effective ways to fix engine with old parts?

well I'm pretty clued up about Engines unlike yourself.The 1st group of mechanics that worked on that car killed it and misdiagnosed it, how can a cat converter be the reason for Engine refusal to start?
I will re-ask you, what do you understand by rigging an Engine??

If I told you to get a replacement engine the first time, some wise men like erico2k2 would say "9ja we are very quick to condemn Engine, bla bla bla..." ---> https://www.nairaland.com/5926614/what-could-done-2004-honda#90690768

For a car like yours, you had no business ringing that engine and I feel sorry for you and whoever encouraged you to do so. Sometimes we learn the hard way

Buy another engine Oga
So in your mind, once your car start letting out smoke the answer is to buy another Engine and please and please stop using the word NEW when you say replace Engine cos you are buying another Engine near its End of life.
Can I ask you a question what do you think Rigging of Engine means?
Let me give you a personal experience, I got one of those Jeep Liberty and the Mrs uses it now and then to go to the village, on one such journey the car parked up and the engine refuses to turn over, all mechanics says another engine,I refused and insisted on opening the Engine to see if it needs a replacement which I know will only happen if the block was bad. Turns out the crankshaft bearings were fried as loss of oil increased the temperature,.The major culprit was the Oil pump which parked up. So Standard crankshaft and bearing bought, new Oil pump, I mean brand new, and I used the opportunity to change the timing chain and its guard as a pack, rear main seal changed and ofcus new gaskets for top cylinder and main seal. Now as we speak 60% of that Engine is 0miles and brand new.

It's cheaper to install.
No waste removal as it decomposes.
Takes little space.
Can last up to 40 years with little maintenance.
No odour.
And a lot more.
Human waste will decompose, at any level as they are Biodegradable, but what makes yours faster?

Like this post I saw on this blog, I hereby throw the question to you guys on NL.

https://punchng.com/at-what-age-should-an-adult-leave-their-parents-house/

For me age is not a matter especially in Nigeria. As long as you are above 18 and can hustle and you have a plan. You're good to go.
whatever age you recon you can fend for yourself

Hello people,

I need help troubleshooting a possible electrical fault in a 2012 HONDA PILOT.

Vehicle suddenly starts to drain battery life rapidly.
Day 1:
- Vehicle worked perfectly okay the day before and was parked but failed to start in the morning.
- Got a battery (battery #2) to jump-start and drove for about 1hr to destination. I returned to the vehicle after about 3hrs and it failed to start.
- Got another battery (battery #3) to jump start, drove home and parked it till next day.

Day 2:
- Sent my battery (battery #1) for charging and hired a battery (battery #4) to use for the period. Installed rented battery, drove about 30mins to destination, turned off engine, returned to vehicle about 20mins later and it wouldn't start. ignition lights comes on but wouldn't start.
- Removed the rented battery and started the car with a borrowed battery (battery #5), disconnected the leads while engine running (to test alternator) and it didn't go off - Alternator okay?
- Put back the hired battery (#4) and drove the vehicle home, disconnected the leads and parked overnight.

Day 3:
- Put back the leads, battery terminal sparking indicating battery power, dashboard lights comes on but still wouldn't start.

I think i may have eliminated alternator and battery as the issue and may have other electrical problem.
Is this correct by the steps outlined above?
Is there other steps I could perform to ascertain the problem?

Any recommendation for someone to help with electrical fault diagnosis.

Vehicle is in Lekki-Ajah axis.

Thanks
Parasitic drain,easy DIY step to catch the rat,hook up a voltmeter whilst car is switched off and remove fuses one by one, relay one by one, takes time but trust me, you will get to the area chopping your battery power grin grin

Don't be surprised if some Nigerians who fly will pay without complaining because most Nigerians who fly often pretend to be rich, very comfortable, and classy. This attitude gives them a false sense of pride meanwhile the value they get for such hiked services remains the same. All these outrage may not sail, especially if those who are contesting it have never seen a completed airport before
There is nothing like pretending to be rich, if you ain't rich you ain't flying period!

To clear the air more time. This time with my call with her husband last night before all this started. Again with the permission of the admins here.

Point 1: She claimed we never agreed.
Point 2: All she have said to me as confirmed by her husband is that they haven't started her job.
Point 3: My borehole installer did her borehole as one of the preliminaries before work starts. If she doubts it. I will still drop the evidence now.

Since many are quick to conclusion without asking the right questions and seeking for an apology.

Point 4: I will release another voice note from a reputable contractor here she contacted too and didn't use which no one is disputing she didn't have the right to.

What she did do, she is deceitful and that should be the watch word here, not saying I called her names as many are keen to look away from her numerous insults before I responded to her.

If you care to listen to her husband's admission last night then click this link. You will hear it yourself.

Again, this project as she had ever admitted as well as her husband have not started. They are still waiting for Omonile issue to be settled as well as rainy season.

Note I have done material schedule for her, connected her with suppliers who happen to resend her husband contact to me last night.

Thank God she admitted she has done the work.
Now it's up to the group members to ask the right questions.

Madam, so Stop making it look like I was after your job. No way. It's not a must for one do a job for anybody.

Am going to be dropping the voice call with another victim you coined into doing same thing for you and again you went on just like that.

So you should stop coming here to pick, use and dump people thinking you are smart. You are not. You are only making potential clients to find it difficult to get useful information and consultations here because of your act.

Politics › Re: Ahmad Lawan: Nigeria Loses $29 Billion To Power Failure Yearly by erico2k2(m): 7:13am On Jun 23, 2020
Esseite:
Let's get into deeper thinking...

Nigeria has run aground and there is no recovery, the only way this country can survive is a peg on birthrate, so its available infrastructure/resources can keep holding while it becomes excess overtime, which would propel employment and eradicate poverty. (eg, china one child policy that lasted 35 years 1980 - 2015, the period of Chinese boom)

We assume Nigeria was better in the past, it was not better, the resources and infrastructure could only sustain the then population alongside corruption and still have leftovers.. with comfort comes population.. that is why developed worlds dont joke with taxes, the richer you get, the higher you pay, so you never get comfortable to excess breed. But here, we barely have taxes and religious doctrines on birth control overshadows logic and common sense.

We bred much more than the resources and infrastructure could carry alongside our world renowned corruption.. now we are in a mess, because we barely have the resources and infrastructure we use to have when we were even assumed comfortable, but left with an unguarded massive population of a developed world.. (case study: how come Nigerians felt better on all ramifications during Obasanjo's admin despite oil sold at $21, Abacha's at $10 etc)

Am not a doomsayer, but The only and fastest way forward for Nigeria, is to go backwards. If we continue this way, we would only end up with a very terrible unabating civil conflict (insecurity, banditry, kidnapping, scammers, grandscale corruption and eventually maybe internal war from casting blames) when the centre can no longer hold because everyone would be scrambling for anything and everything.. (it's unfortunate this is already happening).
No excuse 4 failures.
