Do you have vaccum pump for ac

BUSINESSARENAA:
It's 2012, thanks for calling my attention to it.

Nkwomarket:
But what of Lexus car? Can you do inspection for Lexus?

chukel:
did you do a VIN check?

Mynewdawn15:
Good Afternoon All.

Please my car has been seriously consuming fuel.
I bought it as a Nigerian used January 2019, when I bought the car, the thermostat has been removed with the fan connected direct, AC also converted to manual compressor.

I reverse the fan connection to factory setting, bought thermostat and everything has been working fine, after 5 months the AC compressor got burnt (the excuse of the technician then was that since my fan is not connected direct the manual compressor can retain heat reason why it got burnt), got a poeguet 406 compressor, after some months it started leaking and eventually got burnt.

Changed AC technician, the new guy bought big daddy compressor, changed condenser and Evaporator also recommended that I connect the fan direct else the compressor will get burnt again. After that my AC has been working fine but my car consumes fuel like mad. The fan is running direct with my thermostat still intact. No check engine light, I already scanned it no error code. Spark Plugs are burning fine.
Ltft is - 25% while STFT is between 3.5% and - 1.6%

Kindly help on what to do to reduce the fuel consumption.

Won't the compressor burn again if I return the fan to factory setup?

Car is Toyota camry 2008 I4.

Please I will to have your contact.. I need your service....

All the news from this media house is always sensational, with a sex theme and straight out of Ejigbo/Alimosho LGA.

Same bullshit, different day.

Billiebaba:
Injectors are not pulse width modulated, they are more like mechanical switches like that of relays.

BECAUSE YOU WANT AMDMAN FAILURE

keep showing yourself

you claim to be a tech yet simple to buy a car for personal use story entered

carry your animosity and bad luck and flee this thread abegi

Last year August I bought AC compressor and condenser for honda accord 2003 v6, AC technician did flushing, setup and gas refill and everything was working fine for 2 months, until one afternoon I noticed smoke coming out of the hood, i quickly park to check i noticed the AC compressor was making grinding noise and smoking, i turned it off and took the car to AC technician. I was told I have to change Compressor and Condenser again in which I did again, now same thing happen like 2 months after again, please what could be wrong? No sign of any leaks

I do not claim to know how the injectors work but my lay man understanding is this.
Pressure is fixed. Volume injected is dependent on the length of time the injector stays open which is determined by the ecu . The ecu monitors the efficiency of its actions by monitoring the air flow meter reading, the air fuel ratio meter readings while factoring in other variables like temperature, load, etc.
Does the injector have levels of opening like on a scale of 1-10 governed by the ecu? Cos I would like to think this is the only way a resistor can affect the volume of fuel injected by limiting the voltage flowing to the injector causing it not to open fully and reducing the quantity of fuel injected.

To the best of my knowledge (my knowledge which may not be correct), the injector is a on or off device. It's either open or close. It doesn't have levels of opening like say a flow control valve.

If that is true, then I struggle to understand how a resistor is going to achieve the fuel saving being discussed.

Following.

I'd like to see a picture of the setup by the way.

oliverjiad:
nope check mearsk debit note dec 27

oliverjiad:
okay before the implementation wont there be a y correction for the effect

oliverjiad:
now that you're quoting me all are u all aware that currently all shipping company are having issue since the beginning of the year to get 7.5 vat rate to their service charge implemented by federal government

If I am at fault would I be able to get the customs exercise done from the day the container was positioned for examination that's after alot of back and forth to the shipping and terminal with complaining for the container to be transfer because all vehicle container are automatically on transfer after to bonded terminal and if u dont want it to be transferred u have to step the container down at second gate tincan that's with the bill of laden and it has to be done before the arrival of vessel,these delay occur due to late bill of laden giving to me by amdman,please kindly call out I'm the man to explain how we transact I want him to illustrate that

oliverjiad:
First of all these a debit note from.mearsk line showing the date of the arriving of the container that Amdman claim it came in on the 2nd of this january

This oliverjaid guy can lie and corpses would start waking up from the grave.

There's no one that can do business with you for the first time and patronize you again, because you only have them drained to the last breath.

Everybody that I know has never given you Job the second time, because you always mess up big time.

The same thing you did to my brother last year, you collected money and never do anything for over 33 days. You'll collect money and used it for your personal things and start lying about server down, until we started threatening you before you released the vehicle within 48 hours.

Aberyomi called you out too over his client's car, you started lying that you didn't see the car at the port for days, it took another person just few hours to locate the said car. At the long run that car spent 6 weeks or so before you acted and until you were called out before you did the work you're paid to do.

Despite the fact you're well known on Nairaland, a lot of people can never give you work to do after the first one, only the ones that didn't know you're wicked and heartless that'll give you work to do. And I bet it, such ones can never try it the second time. I'm sure aberyomi has parted with you and also Aywhy

I'm personally affected with this container Amdman called you out on, and the moment I found out some weeks ago that you're the clearing agent... The first thing I said to myself and family is "We are in trouble"

GAZZUZZ:
This will be an interesting topic that's why I moved your comment here.

Intectors operate on pulse, short and long pulses, dropping the voltage would it distort the spray pattern ? Let's discuss.

Okay thanks for sharing.

Hope you’re gonna be ‘anal’ about your oil grade and change interval with this engine

MaziBillionaire:
some people are scared.. they want the car, because they love it... they're o'vr the moon for it alright. But they are too excited to make an offer. so they rant, and try to "degrade" the vehicle... my dear, this isn't your average vehicle. and it's value won't change because of anything. however with the word "negotiable" attached somewhere there, the price can change.. that's business baby.

chukel:
was any work done on the shaft? Was it an accident vehicle. If yes, which part was involved.

Inception:
None sir.
No codes at all.
I have drained and refilled twice with WS . same issue( 2-3 shift flare, 4-5 shift flare for the first 10-15 minutes of driving). After it has warmed up, flare goes away. But then I experience harsh engagement into reverse from neutral to reverse, and P to R. Harsh downshifts ( particularly 5-4), 3-2, 2-1.

Note that when fluid was replaced the first time, fluid was dark( but not burnt), but did not notice any shiny metallic particles in the pan ( except the magnet particles of course). Filter was changed.

I understand the valvebody operation is PWM( pulse width modulated) which over time causes valvebody wear in the main pressure valve bore.

Now, the dilemma : Replace valvebody with a brand new unit, or replace Tranny?
