Dear Gazzuzz

Thank you for sustaining this thread and giving us timely information all the time. I have a small issue. I drive a Toyota Camry 2003 , at some point I had to change the dipstick for the engine oil compartment, I feel the current dipstick is longer than normal and I do not get accurate oil level reading (so for instance, I feel that now that I'm getting a oil level reading just below the lower end of the stick, I think if i use a normal dipstick, it would be normal). Is there a way to determine the recommended dipstick size? Thank you.

Unfortunately and sadly, it's one of my own cars here in SoCal.

But I redeemed myself

ahh Uncle, you have received the pair of toks I sent via waybill

Bore out of spec = +10, 20, 30, 40 thou pistons ??

I did a +80 once on a Mini Cooper. Went from 1275cc to 1380.

The failure was later catastrophic

During your time, Machinists used to be very precise in their jobs, I once took a 1998 corrola with a 1.2liter engine for a re-bore, when the guy was done, I installed new pistons and connecting rods, bearings seals, the whole package, and I assumed a new lease of life. Engine was brought back in 1 week smoking

I took every thing apart and did not find any thing out of place. I decided to work backwards....

I measured the bores top to bottom... the top was within spec, the bores at the lower ends were wider in 2 cylinders

I had to buy toks engine to pacify the client.

Now imagine if it was weyreypey

EgunMogaji:
Now we’re making progress.

So we have a machine shop, we also have an aluminum welder.

It’s good.

Not my fault. My day is barely starting. As I write it is just 7pm. Plus this baby doesn't seem to understand world cup is over.

baby is bursting a shaku shaku move..... like Mama like .....

EgunMogaji:
The last major work I did was on my MR2.

It developed a water leak in the cylinder head near a spark plug hole. It was completely drivable but when water had an opportunity to pool in their then it will cause a misfire which will go away as soon as the water evaporated.

Anyways, instead of swapping the engine, I simply removed the head and exchanged it at a machine shop or online (I forgot) and reinstalled it.

So guys, if the same thing happened in Nigeria, would you swap engines or just change the head?

PS: The engine had 285,000 miles on it and was sold at over 300,000 miles.

This engine nah ancestor, it will get an aluminum weld in the machine shop and go back to business

i have a hands on experience with a bad fuel pump in a brand new tear rubber car
in 2013 my company bought a brand new hyundai verna for me
2 week down the line vehicle started jerking.... after riding for a couple of kms, fuel supply used to cut off on account of bad fuel pump. vehicle was sent to hyundai motors ijesha and the culprit was fuel pump....
their service manager sent pics to me...... full of sludge.... fuel pump turned black in colour in just 2 weeks of vehicle usage
my regular fuel stations along my office road that time were 2 reputed ones....

naija is legendary anuty radu, that 1 year warranty you are splashing upandan hope you are ready

EgunMogaji:
We do replace engines here too and there are many companies bringing in used engines from Japan especially.

Most of the times, the engines that I have replaced have been to get a better JDM or GDM engine that has more power.

Is replacing an engine cheaper and faster> Of course but the customer needs to be given a chance to make a decision.

What I see here is a "we only replace engine" mantra.

This is not good for customer service.

Bros u no shift goal post o.. Na the whole stadium you relocate

all join, we de discuss car and vehicles within our region

Gentlelife50:
Okay, thanks. I keep changing it often, I was wondering whether it's fake I keep buying.

radautoworks:
Anything more than 5,000 miles between changes here is definitely ill advised

radautoworks:
You can't pick there. You call it in and they send it.

radautoworks:
He agrees for him as the mechanic replacing is easier.. but no warranty! Man, we have stories of replacements that were hell because the engines had to go back two or three times and the seller (big used engine distributor too) didn't want to refund. 3 months to get money back o! In the meantime we had to deal with frustrated customer. At least there you can send engine back within a certain number of days under certain conditions. I think it was 10?

Contact me in the future I have an eye for such things, my track record in 2years has been fantastic we no need ASE certification for that matter

Good evening senior men.
Please I got blocked on Uber this morning,, went to their center to complain and I was told my phone (HTC E8) isn't part of the listed phones for their service,, thereOubenji need to change my phone because they're suspecting illegal activities bla bla..

I have only been on the platform for less than two weeks and God forbid I do anything illegal just for quids..

Please has anyone had this issue before or is anyone currently having the same issue?? How do I handle this?? I've been unblocked but I fear to put my app on as I don't want to get banned permanently..

Bosses please,, what do I do??

Gentlelife50:
Bros which is better, tokumbo or new fuel pump?

radautoworks:
You brave o!

ask Glen, some things are that easy

radautoworks:
You really didn't leave us much to say here. Most of the time, the damaged parts are few and cheap and may come down to just gaskets, rods or a head that needs machining. We have all the boxes checked and will almost always rebuild rather than replace. It is nearly always cheaper and comes with a warranty (especially in this country with cheap labor). We gave an example in our little rant about rebuilding https://www.nairaland.com/4501821/milex-carquest-2nd-largest-usa/18#69784777

When it's not better for the customer to rebuild, we recommend replacement.

Gazzuzz, would you confidently give a customer a 6 month to 1 year warranty on that beauty? I'm guessing no because you never really know the story behind that replacement. We have the machine to make any engine look prettier than that one in 45minutes and internally it's a piece of crap. It's the same machine used to clean up all the parts when we rebuild.
