@GAZZUZZ i have a toyota corrolla 2004, and im considering changing the color from wine to dark grey.. Pks whats the cost to get a perfect work done? Do i need any approvals?
200-250k. I will need to see all purchase documentation. You will need to apply for a court affidavit and a police report for change of colour.

Hi gazzuzz,

I purchased a Nigerian used 2010 bmw x6. So far the car rides well. Asides from other maintenance checks, do you think there is any other thing to look out for. I want to avoid any expensive repairs looking to blindside me
I honestly have no idea. I love the looks of the car, just scared repairs might be expensive.

Stick to Manufacture recommended parts and you should be fine.

I sell recommended engine oil for your vehicle just in case wink

I will go with the lighter vehicle, due to bad roads.

lighter vehicle, less suspension issues.

Accord it is.

Even though I regard the avalon as a limousine grin

Please advice.

Thank you.

Hi Gazzu.zz.

I seek to learn here, I hope you will indulge me.
I believe the pulsar plate in conjunction with a hall effect sensor feeds the ECM with crankshaft position and speed.

Without the plate, the I don't expect the ECM to fire the spark plugs or pulse the injectors but the op said there was spark and ignition.

please help my understanding
Requirement to make an engine run.

Fuel
Compression.
Air,
Spark
Sequence

Every requirement was met, but for sequence. Imagine spark plugs firing up on a cylinder @ exhaust stroke, or when the cylinder are going down pulling a mix of fuel and air? All you would have are small explosions in the intake area and exhaust areas, engine would spark, but not start.

thanks for the intelligent question.

i recently bought honda accord 2003 eod 9ja used, i noticed that the fan is direct, i asked for the history and no history of overheating but why is d fan direct, the seller said cos of nigeria temperature and they told him honda doesnt like high temp like 9ja temp. everything sha pra pra for the car sha, d car still use the single cell radiator and when AC is ON the rpm drops to like 600 rpm.

i wanted to restore d fan back and change to double cell radiator (reason why i wanted to do it was cos in 2013 i bought a tokunbo nissan 03 with single cell radiator but b4 i drove d car from lagos to ibadan, the radiator bursted at the top, and popular kamoru advices direct fan and double radiator, but ibrefused d direct fan and changed d radiator to double cell only, and d car is performing till ds moment)


pls advice on what to do to the honda accord.

thank you
Replacing the Radiator is a Good idea, also replacing the thermostat is a good idea too. Use proper HONDA coolant after this procedure, and monitor fluid levels religiously for any adverse effects.

Okay oh.. The moral of the story is..

Returning back to factory spec is not just replacing thermostat & connecting fan back to fan switch/CT sensor.

My rewire figured it out and everything is smooth now
1 of 2 things happened.

1. there was a loose connection and he fixed or replaced the harness.

2. he bypassed the Pressure switch on the VTECH system, and fooled the computer to thinking all is well.

Let's just hope it is 1.

if It is 2, short term engine will throw a rod.

explorers is nowhere to be found.

he is still dumbfounded when oluwaseunla is passing by.

Oluwaseunla: is this your vehicle?

Kamaru: no, it is for a customer, I came to buy a part with it.

Oluwaseunla points to an office at the end of the road. go to that office, you will see Lag Taskforce there, they removed plates on all the cars for street parking.

Kamaru places a call to yusuf, and explains what happened. Yusuf tells him not to worry that it is a family matter, and he should go there and give the officer in charge the phone.

Kamaru gets there. Explains him self to deedee44, and gives him the phone to talk to to yusuf, they talk for 3mins and yusuf is handed the plates back.

he goes back to the car, installs the coils, as he is doing so, nwizu042 and Marpol approach the working mechanic... owo working permit da?......


After all the wahala of ladipo, he takes the car back to yusuf.

Yusuf uses the car for another 1week, with varying problems he finally replaces the the remaining 2 coils packs.

After getting tired of the almost every other day work on the car, Kamaru tells yusuf he will open the engine and replace the top Gasket. At that point, yusuf decides to sell the car, He is contemplating on how to do it, when he shares the idea of selling the car with ejembi28 his co-worker and he tells him how he sold his problematic car in a couple of hours at a good price.
he directs him to 54srac, Yusuf's cleans up the car and takes it to Kamaru for another session of tweaking (without touching the gasket) , he drives to one of the inspection centers and is met by cardoctor who inspects the car, takes it on a spin and makes him a mouth wittering offer... Kamaru takes the offer and the deal is concluded in 45hours


slamstanlee Buys the car from 54srac and gives it to stacyadams to use on uber. Stacyadams returns the car to factory specs, and the engine knocks in 3days of use.


Uncle gets a Honda accord V6 2010 model, he goes straigh to Kamaru to tropicalize the vehicle and change the engine oil to 20w50.

The engine knocks after 6months of use on his way to ilorin.

the end.

Now let's discuss what happened to both cars? Have you ever been in any of these situations?


the floor is open to every one.

Tue Morning, Uncle checks Fluids with nephew .

Engine oil at the Full mark, coolant filled all the way to the top.

Uncle: wasere Kamaru! he exclaims in delight, my vehicle is back to standard, Readone35L you and that your English-speaking mechanic wanted to confuse me before now. thank God my Village people have decamped.

nephew : scratches his head trying to rationalise the results he is seeing.

Uncle looks at the radiator cap, and notices a thick film of greasy oil under the pressure cap, he says, it seems the fake coolant your friend poured into my radiator is reacting with my system, I will call Kamaru to come and flush it today.
Uncle gets into the car, puts the key in ignition and starts it, engine starts with a lot of difficulty, it finally starts with very light smoke and a missfire...

Uncle: use motor yi ko ti kpe, the work is not yet balanced, Kamaru will still touch the motor small.
He Gets to the office and places a call to Kamaru to come pick the car up.

Kamaru gets to the office.

Uncle: wasere Kamaru, the car has really improved, but it moves like if a spark plug or 2 are not working. Please have a 2nd look at it .
Kamaru takes vehicle back to the workshop, he tells his bois to remove the fuel pump, fuel injectors, throttle body and service them, he replaces the fuel pump with a N1500 replacement part, all the parts are cleaned and installed into the engine.

he starts the car, and the misfire is still there.

he begins to Rev the car till it red-lines multiple times.

he does it over and over again.

But the misfire is still there.

he tells the bois to remove the spark plugs and they notice one of them was dark, they replace with a used one, and start the car again. The misfire is still there.

just then his neighbour LeJeun3 that fixes only range rovers comes his aid.

LeJeun3 : Kamaru what is happening? I have been hearing you Rev this car for the past hour, you are yet to find the issue?

Kamaru: eleyi gidi gan!

LeJeun3 : have you checked the coils?

Kamaru: ah this motor I have been servicing it since it was tokumbo para-para, see how the engine is still clean.

LeJeun3 : see let us use the coils from CarGuideNG's car, he went to the bank, and will not be back for another hour.

Kamaru: oya.

they install all 4 coils from carguideng's toyota Yaris, it was not a perfect match but the sockets did fit. they start the car, and it runs smooth.....

Kamaru: ahh so coil lon se motor yi! Thank you o!

They swap out with the old coils until they discover 2 coils are faulty. Kamaru drives to ladipo with the old coils, he parks the car opposite Gtb. Explorers yells in at him, ogbeni! Owo parking da?

Kamaru: am I running? When I come back I will pay.

Explorers: will you work inside?

Kamaru: No

Explorers: if you will open the bonnet and work, it is 500 for working permit.

Kamaru: I will not work.

Kamaru goes to nndoko plaza on osoro street he meets with his spare part dealer mazdaengineparts.

Mazdaengineparts: Kamaru! Customer welcome o!

Kamaru: no welcome me anything, wetin you do last time no good, nah 2 days I spend for cell because of you, nah my wife Enyinne come bail me with 50,000

mazdaengineparts: no worry, we go counterbalance later.

Kamaru: nah so....you go still chop me again.

Kamaru asks him for 2 coils, he asks nah camry 2.2? He leaves him for 10 minutes and comes back with 2 coils. They negotiate and Kamaru pays 4,000 for the 2 coils and leaves. he gets back to the car and the number plates on Yusuf's car are missing....

Kamaru drives the car to his workshop, he calls tyche his rewire to come and reconnect the wiring back to direct connections, he also removes the thermostat. He drains the engine oil, Buys 2. Oil Treatment, and a 20w50 engine oil, he mixes both of them, and pours into the engine.

he then drives from his workshop in Yaba to mushin to buy parts for luvinhubby's car that has been in his workshop all weekend.

by 3pm he is satisfied and takes the car to yusuf in alausa, he enters his office with renewed confidence,

he is stopped by the security man Jagermeister at the gate.

Jagermeister: welcome sir, please fill this form

Kamaru: are you new here? So mo age mi?

Jergermeister: ah Egbon Egbon! mi o ri e dada, welcome.

Kamaru walks into Yusuf's office and goes straight to his table.

Yusuf: ah Kamaru, se e ti se tan?

Kamaru: Oga its a simple stufs tikpe tikpe long time ago, moti set e dada.

Yusuf : how is the engine?

Kamaru : one hand now.

Yusuf thanks Kamaru for the work done, ask for the bill, pays him in cash, and continues work in the office.

Yusuf closes @ around 7pm, and heads out to his car, he starts it and true to Kamaru's words, it started like it used to without any complaints. He smiled and turned on the CD player, he selected a king sunny ade CD to play on his way home.

5mins to the house, the engine starts to misfire intermittently, Uncle says this village people have turned on their GPS again. tomorrow I will call Kamaru.
