Politics / Re: Air Force Expecting Delivery Of 55 Helicopters By December (see List) by Kelvin30286063(m): 7:20am On Oct 31, 2022 |
Moh247:Buhari brought so many air military hardwares cos he was a military man. He loves his toys. I knew he will improve our military strength when we elected him even though he failed in many other areas. But if Tinubu wins, all these toys will end up abandoned in an airport somewhere cos I don't see him fighting insurgences and winning. Baba go just dey negotiate with terrorists. Obi looks like someone that will be ready to fight when it comes to it. Atiku, I don't really know. He's a business man, never trust a business man with power. Not a fan of Peter Obi since I'm Yoruba but when it comes to combat, he's our best bet out of all those three. The good thing about all these military hardwares is not only the insurgences, but also the fact that other African countries will think twice before starting a war with us in the near future. Remember the near war situation we had with Cameroon in 1980 and 2004 over Bakassi border? Insults like that won't happen anymore. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Car Talk / Re: ABS Light Showing On The Dashboard by Kelvin30286063(m): 11:30am On Oct 14, 2022 |
Demor1:Your ABS doesn't affect your speed so speeding up won't show you anything. But if you speed up and press sharply on your brake. You should feel a sway. That's how you know you have abs problems. But a sway when you match your brake can be something else too (e.g ball joints or alignment issues). Meanwhile, first check the simply fixes like brake pad and brake fluid. If those are fine. Take off the tires and inspect the abs components. Be ready tho, ABS warning light can be a b1tch, that light doesn't like to go away easily. |

This is definitely a welcome development. I flew into Lagos today and I was in a car for 3 hours just to get to Lekki. It will definitely help in terms of traffic too. |

Business / Re: Man Cries Out As His Goods Worth Millions Floats On Water In Ariaria (video) by Kelvin30286063(m): 9:18am On Sep 27, 2022 |
One thing I find very interesting about Nigerians is how they call government and God for every little problem they have. I once did a study on community development using cities in the US as a case study and one thing I find very useful in my study is the fact that most of the development in many of the US cities and towns are done by people living in those cities and town. They organize a community fund raising and fix road, work on drainage and everything. But look at us, we always wait for government to do everything for us. Even when we know they are the last people we can depend on to fix things. You people do business there, come together, contribute money and do a proper drainage so that water won't be coming to your shops anymore. I and a few other educated landlords in my area have been the ones fixing the road that leads to our houses for 3 years now, once raining season starts, we start contributing money cos we know erosion will damage the road. We fix it, do the drainage again and fill the potholes. We don't wait for government cos we already accept nigeria as it is, THEY ARE NOT COMING. And if they finally come, that's a bonus! 11 Likes 1 Share |

You'll get the last two for that price if they are Nigerian used but you won't get the first two even if they are Nigerian used. |
Car Talk / Re: My Review K&N Octane Booster by Kelvin30286063(m): 4:18pm On Sep 25, 2022 |
Conner44:Actually I ordered 8 pieces. First one to test if it works then I ordered another 7 pieces after that. I basically spent $185 plus shipping. To answer your question, no the car is not my regular car. I have 3 cars so it's for special occasions and I have to admit, the octane booster helps a lot cos I can always feel the engine runs better with it. It's not about flaunting money, I'm just maintaining my cars. I'll spend any amount to keep my car in perfect condition cos at the end of the day when you're doing 140km/hr, your life is no longer yours, it belongs to your car and your car will never forget when you should have spent money on her and you didn't.

kingreign:And you like endless nonsense talk. Are they your cars? I said I'll warm my cars for at least 20-30 Seconds before I move, you're telling me about something you read online. Just say okay and good luck. If I get wear and tear ( which I highly doubt) I'll go back to the market and buy two more cars if I like and guess what, I'll still warm them for 20 seconds everyday before work. My life, my rules. If it's a problem for you, do yours the way you like. I'm not here to argue endlessly over a very debatable topic. Yeah, you used that word before. I can also show you 10 urls that debunk your argument but I don't have time for that. All your own resources never said you shouldn't idle your car, I read where they also clearly said you shouldn't idle more than 30 seconds but you're here opposing the point they made. Who doesn't know that leaving a car in idle for long causes wear and tear?

Car Talk / Re: Advice For First Car Owner by Kelvin30286063(m): 7:00am On Sep 19, 2022 |
kingreign:See I don't have time for arguments but I know for a fact that all my cars sound rough the first second I start the engine until it smoothen up after a few seconds. And I won't move until I hear that smooth silent sound that shows my engine is fine. Everybody can do it whichever way they like, I'll keep the method I grew up with as a kid watching my dad drive his old Mercedes. Probably one of the reasons he used that Benz for 10 years and the engine still sounded perfect until he sold it. No need to argue with anyone about that cos there are lots of conflicting arguments about this online too. |
Car Talk / Re: Advice For First Car Owner by Kelvin30286063(m): 2:39am On Sep 19, 2022 |
kingreign:There is no highly debatable in this fact. By letting your car warm up, instead of just driving it cold (especially in cold season, allows the engine's components to disperse oil evenly throughout every moving part. Without the proper warmup time, you can risk damaging your engine's pistons, which may warp or experience undue wear as a result of being driven cold. This is regardless of what you drive whether a 2001 or 2022 car as long as it's not an electric. At least give it nothing less than 30 seconds of warm up, don't just jump in, start up and zoom off every morning. It happens alot with people that needs to rush to work every morning and they always end up with broken engines. |

Don't convert your fan(s) to manual. Avoid any mechanic that tells you to do that. If your car is in good condition, it won't overheat before the engine warms up and the fan(s) kick in. Let me add two extra advices. Your engine may look very clean now but it will eventually get dirty, don't take it to car wash and ask them to wash the engine when it gets a little dirty. You may end up losing some irreplaceable sensors due to car wash pressure gun. When you start your car in the morning, don't jump in and zoom off right away, wait a few seconds for oil to circulate and engine sound to quiet down before you move. Congrats on your first ride. 7 Likes |

It's ridiculous but not as ridiculous as the lot of Nigerians that are mourning her on their pages. Personally I won't even bother to say sh*t about Queen Elizabeth's death cos it's not worth it. That woman took everything from Africa in the name of colonialism and she's an egocentric racist that's not worthy of any sympathy whatsoever. 29 Likes |

There's no water inside kettle, there's water inside iron pipe that holds the kettle up and pushes water up into it then it pours back down. It's simple engineering. |

You may even get here in Nigeria (not 100% sure) Get a key programmer to program the key and you're good to go. Funny think is, I have a key programming machine and I've done this a few times for people. Can't help cos I'm not in Lagos and it's not a business for me. Just something I do out of kindness of heart to people that knows my mechanics 1 Like |
