Please is the his normal to o have background check go this long?[/quote]
What about the throttle body?(Popularly called injector mouth), and the IACV (intake air control valve)---are they in good condition?
qquote author=Labragadaya post=122977846]I bought a 2002 Toyota Camry as my first car in October and for the first 2-3 months the car performed pretty well.
However lately, from January it has been one problem to the other.
From overheating to coil problem to spark plug problem and others.
The recent issue with the car is that the car doesn’t hold slow anymore.
That is the car goes off at slow speeds. I’ve changed coil, changed spark plug, ringed engine twice all to no avail.
This has caused a huge hole in my pocket as I’ve even had to borrow to pay for some of these repairs.
Just yesterday in a bid to resolve this issue, I took the car to another mechanic and he told me my engine block had washed and that even if he grinded the valve the holding slow issue won’t stop. I inquired about the cost of replacing the block and purchase alone was close to a 100 thousand. I’m just tired and frustrated, I need advise, do I sell the car or do I repair this?
Is this mechanic trying to extort me. Experience car users please advise[/quote]

Vilgax: scary stuff. let's see if this can slow down inflation...
incase you don't really understand what this means, this na wetin dey sup.
when a central bank raise interest rate. your normal bank will also respond by raising their own interest rate. with higher interest rate, people will tend to spend less and demand for goods and services will also drop, which will cause inflation to fall. When demand is low, most companies won't raise their prices in order to stay competitive. since prices of goods and services aren't increasing that fast, you've managed to reduce inflation. this is how CBN raising interest rates is meant to curb inflation. but na Naija we dey, our own economics dey always different.
Will this reduce cost of production?
You need to understand the fact that the high cost of goods and services currently happening in Nigeria isn't demand driven.
Going by your method statement below, your affirmed 'subgrade was rebuilt in layers of 50 meters thickness ,per layer...
Hunchogee: IDONGESIT NKANGA AVENUE (3RD RING ROAD) A WORLD-CLASS MASTERPIECE BY HENZEK ENGINEERING
By Emmanuel Nicholas
Indigenous construction firms were never trusted with the construction of a massive superhighway with 12 lanes, such as the Third Ring Road in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital.
Never in the history of the state did anything close to that happen because such jobs were reserved for construction giants like Julius Berger, RCC, MCC, etc.
Many indigenous construction firms that bid for such projects did so solely to raise their profiles. Without a doubt, Governor Udom Emmanuel is a leader who believes in cultivating and developing the Akwa Ibom brand as part of his Dakkada Philosophy.
Besides, the Dakkada Philosophy invites all Akwa Ibom people to conquer their fears, break down the barriers to their success and rise to the faith of their greatness.
That is why the governor’s decision to allow an indigenous firm, Henzek Engineering, to compete with multinational construction companies should be commended.
While the company has shown itself as a rising star, it has also demonstrated its ability to compete on an equal footing with multinational construction corporations.
The high-quality delivery of the Third Ring Road, which is nearing completion, is a strong statement that if given the opportunity, an Akwa Ibom person can excel in any profession.
The quality of the work is evident to all, but more importantly, the meticulous finishing of the road has dissuaded critics who had argued that awarding such a large contract to an indigenous company would be a waste of public funds and result in subpar service.
One of the problems of road construction in Nigeria over the years has been durability rather than inflated costs, and Engr Uwem Okoko, Managing Director of Henzek Engineering, deserves all praise for meeting the contract's obligations.
The Third Ring Road was built in accordance with the required engineering methods, according to those who are familiar with the project.
Every step of construction was handled with strict engineering precision - the demolition and removal of unsuitable soil, grading and sloping, preparation of the subbase, installation of the binder and surface course, asphalt surfacing as well as installation of butt joints and transitions.
A thorough final roll will complete the project and deliver a five-star superhighway to the state.
But let’s get back to the basics. Earthwork is one of the major phases in road construction and involves the removal of topsoil, along with any vegetation before scraping and grading the road area into a finished “formation level.”
This is usually done using a tractor shovel, grader, or bulldozer. Below the formation level, it is important that the strength of the soil, also known as the “subgrade,” is tested prior to the beginning of earthwork.
That was what informed the decision of Henzek Engineering to remove over six feet of unsuitable soil, refilled the road with pure red earth and compact it in three stages during the earthworks.
A high-quality precast drainage system was developed before the earth was refilled, just like other multinational construction companies do.
Where necessary, underground drains were constructed to adequately evacuate and discharge flood water to their terminal points.
Following the completion of the earthwork, the company built three levels of subgrades, each of which was around 50 meters in thickness .
Before the binder course was rolled, the stone-base concrete was laid out to the desired subgrade thickness, which was about 100mm.
The company's approach to asphalting has also left many pondering why such a large quantity of bitumen was poured on a single road.
This is because after the binder course was completed, three levels of asphalt were laid with the stage measuring 50 meters of rough surface bitumen, second stage also measured 50 meters (and contained small stones mixture) and while the finishing was done with pure nylon asphalt which gave the road its smooth and glassy spectacle.
Idongesit Nkanga Avenue is 9.5 kilometers long and has 12 lanes; two middle-road drains, two side drains, six concrete road dividers, and three roundabouts with water fountains at the Oron, Nwaniba, and Aka Road connections. The last two lanes of the lovely road are illuminated by solar-powered floor lights and double middle floor lights. Another appurtenance of the road is the provision of a concrete floor on the median with a narrow earth path for planting trees and flowers.
As part of safety measures, the company has not only installed iron barricades along the entire length of the road to prevent users from indiscriminate crossing but has also created crossing points at every 100 or 200 meters.
The two last lanes of the superhighway are provided with concrete-top walk paths and holes for planting of trees to beautify the road.
The high quality, the sheer magnificence, and the sense of durability of the Third Ring Road have made many wonder whether it was constructed by a local company. And the answer is a resounding “YES.”
When it comes to the construction industry, Henzek Engineering has proven the pundits wrong by making a bold statement with Idongesit Nkanga Avenue finishing .
The company today employs more than 5,000 workers, including both skilled and unskilled labour, and has more than 300 pieces of machinery in its yard.
That is why we can confidently assert that Henzek Engineering has what it takes to carry out any type of construction job on any given day, at any given time.
Engr Uwem Okoko has positioned the company to operate locally, nationally continental , and at the international level, thanks to Governor Emmanuel who understands that building indigenous economy provides opportunity to grow more enterprises with the concomitant rewards in job creation and poverty alleviation.

DryMouth: Simple! The main problem is catalyst. Some pple are up there shouting it's an electrical fault. Even if the car doesn't connects to scanner, i dnt see much fault there..
Agreed, the next thing for him to do is to fix catalyst back to the exhaust system, and have the O2 sensors checked and monitored for effectiveness and the only way to monitor all sensors on both intake and exhaust system of the vehicle will be through scanning.
Finobravo: Kindly help me. I drive a Honda accord car..2007 model. I just bought it not long. The problem is that car consumes too much fuel. It takes 3000 naira fuel for 36 kilometres which is way too much. I have changed the Air flow meter sensor, the MAF sensor(I think) and the 02 oxygen sensor. To make matter worse, car dosen't communicate with scanners. It is driving me crazy as I don't know what next to change. The injector too had been cleaned, nosules have been serviced and plugs have been changed. Yet no improvement. There is no catalyst though. It was removed before I got the car.
Pls help a brother in need.
There is the need for you to get the communication link issue resolved.
Zero catalyst and bad O2 sensors can cause high fuel consumption
Uprightness100: Crazy jam there! Condolences to the Dead.
These are kind of Scenes that will be all over the Nations of the world, one of these days when JESUS appears in the sky to Rapture his Children out of here.
It's gonna be Worldwide Commotions, as pilots and those in vehicles who are Saved and washed in the Blood of JESUS will mysteriously disappear from their vehicles and planes.
mrprolifik: You need to first request for your GCMS notes to find out the main reason why your visa application was refused before you can takle the problem properly.
