lakefist: Please answer my question. Can a compressor be repaired? depends on the work to be done.
Clutch/coils can be replaced
Seals can be replaced
Bearings can be replaced
So I would say YES a compressor can be fixed to work efficiently. |

Thanks looks like one of the reasons the former owner sold it.
Engine is burning oil, it could be faulty pisto rings, valve stem seals, PCV valve or a bad head gasket. |

olowo72: The very term 'hypermiling' was coined by Gerdes in 2004, and it became the Oxford Word of the year in 2008... Hypermiling means saving fuel... I think it the best now that fuel price has gone up in Nigeria. Hypermiling is generally characterized by a smooth driving and thinking ahead. Aggressive tactics like tailgating, which entails closely following the vehicle ahead to reduce drag, are against Gerdes' philosophy: "I always drive at or just below the Posted Speed Limit in the far right lane."

okpeho: Hello Gazzuzz,
Please, I have this challenge with my Honda Civic automatic (2002) model.
The A/C cools and works very well in the morning and afternoon but it does not cool in the night . Sometimes while driving home in the night, it will refuse to work until I arrived at my destination, park and then start the car again, switch on the A/C, then it will start working again.
@ Gazzuzz, please what do you think is the problem? Thank you as I await your prompt feedback Very strange problem, it normally happens the other way round. .
Location sir? |
