uboma:
Thank you Siena for the pointers.
Henceforth no mechanic will wash any parts of my car with PMS.

You have spoken well. Petrol is more abrasive than kerosene. Have personally used both and the result was different, petrol being a harsh and volatile substance takes out those sticky oil easily. Also it dries up fast unlike kereosene which is non volatile in nature requires more time to dry up and doesnt clean up the parts well that needs to be cleaned up. Another substitute to this is carb cleaner but the big question goes thus; how many cans of carb cleaner would you use to clean up those sticky oils away? A dozen ?

Well as for me I would stick to petrol. Another important thing we should not forget is as at today in Nigeria petrol is much more cheaper than kerosene. As for me I would put into the consideration the nature of the part am to clean up. I wouldn't be using kerosene to clean up noozles. My fuel injection tester and cleaning machine does that. My opinion

Siena:
[color=Blue]I never wash engine or transmission parts with gasoline.

Whilst gasoline is NOT abrasive, it is a solvent, that removes any protective film of oil from components. This can cause components that operate with very tight tolerances to stick in their operating environment - solenoids in transmission valve bodies, piston rings in piston ringlands, camshaft and crankshaft journals in their bearings etc.

I use good old diesel, it cleans components, and also leaves a protective film of oil, kerosine or paraffin are also ideal. Gasoline breaks down oil, and is NOT advised within the automotive industry. [/color]

Autel ms906 is 100% original and can realize its function better than ds708 with fast running speed. It runs faster than DS708, it's the biggest difference between them. But it only has English version until now.

This is interesting. Never knew that Ford Edge is cheaper than RX 330. I love the design of Ford Edge but i have always thought that the price was way higher than RX 330. If Ford Edge is cheaper than RX 330, how come Nigerians are not buying it the same way they are buying RX 330.

leuelliot:
have you tried amazon?

honmusa:
No need to really bother if the product is counterfeit or another maxisys ,you will know during the registration of the autel product.
Just ensure you do the registration in the presence of the seller

mayor2013:
I just called him now. He reduced price and he insisted it was the pro version

mayor2013:
Never heard of making any subscription for ecu reflash but if the tools requires you connecting to the car manufacturer's database for an ecu reflash then you would need to pay the required fee. So far so good whatever programming function you need to carry out with this tool that would require the j2534 hardware you need to pay for that subscription. I know for sure thats not free. One of the best scan tool in the market

ohisbo:
