How much is Peter Obi paying you to detest the progress of your own country?

I'm confused here. Please what exactly do you call progress? What is your definition of progress? Make me understand.

Conner44:


Engine cooling systems are usually close-looped and pressurised. Also as coolant gets hotter it expands and as it gets cooler it contracts.

The pressure in your engine block is also going to expand during high temperatures and reduce during cold temperatures. During engine use, as it gets hotter the pressure will build up within the cooling system and will need to be able to get pushed out of the radiator and engine block to make room for the already expanding coolant to flow properly within the system. All that extra pressure during engine use is designed to be routed into the coolant overflow container.

If the coolant overflow container is filled up past the recommended level then the calculated pressure buildup in the running engine will exceed the space designed for it in the cooling system and will need to be expelled somehow. Most coolant overflow containers have a pressure release valve/hose built into its cover but I've seen some vehicles where such covers have spoilt, those are the types that have increased risks while being overfilled.

Some signs to know that you have overfilled your coolant overflow container is usually when you experience one or more of the following,

1. Hot coolant spilling out of your coolant overflow container onto your other engine components and the floor since the coolant has expanded and has nowhere else to go but out of the coolant overflow container vent valve.

2. Reduced cooling efficiency (the temperature needle on the guage slowly crossing the halfway mark while driving in hold up and sometimes coming back down when on an open road) due to improper ratio of air to coolant in the cooling system.

3. The coolant overflow container will seem to be boiling (as the exessive pressure tries to force its way out of the cover of the overflow container or any available exit hose/pipe if available)

4. The radiator or overflow container itself exploding and gaining a leak if the excess pressure finds its exit via brute force (or any unfortunate outlet like via gaskets, seals or oil cooler lines)

On most cars if you overfilled the coolant overflow container it will just spill out the excess coolant from its vent overtime but what if that vent isn't functioning properly? It's better you just take the safe approach and run the vehicle to operating temp and shutting it off to cool very well before topping up the radiator and coolant overflow container to a level between its min and max lines.

There's A LOT of misinformation in this write-up.
Yest the cooling system is a closed pressurized system, but the reservoir is NOT part of the pressurized system. The pressure in the system is regulated by the cover of the radiator (Yes, the radiator cover is more than just a cover). When the engine is running and therefore heating up, the water starts expanding and the pressure in the system starts rising. When the pressure gets to a set point, the release valve in the radiator cover lets the excess water push past it and INTO THE RESERVOIR.
When you turn off the engine and it starts cooling down, the coolant starts contracting. This contraction creates suction which pulls coolant back from the reservoir.

What happens when there's air in the system? Let's note that some cars can automatically expel air from the system while a lot of cars can't. As the coolant heats up, the air also expands and comes out through the radiator cover. This is that bubbling you see when you running an engine for the first time after the cooling system was breeched. It is advice able to run the engine to operating temperature with the radiator cover open to let as much air out as possible.

When there's air in the system: Air is very compressible and therefore the required pressure in the system will never be achieved. Note that one of the benefits of the high pressure in the system is that it raises the boiling point of the coolant (water component) to prevent boiling. Air also conducts heat much less than coolant, so the engine will have hot spots, which is a killer.

Running the system with a full reservoir: The reservoir is designed to let excess coolant overflow. Some will actually have overflow pipe, while others will just have overflow hole. There's NO VALVE. As the engine heats up and the coolant in the radiator expands, the reservoir should have enough space to contain the excess. If not, the excess will overflow. It is as simple as that. So filling the reservoir to full is not a big deal, it's just a waste of coolant.
Running with an empty reservoir: The reservoir, apart from being a reservoir, also has the function of being an air seal. Meaning that it prevents air from being sucked back into the radiator as the coolant cools and contracts. So running it empty means air can be sucked back into the radiator as things cool down. You do not want that to happen.

IN ALL THESE, THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THAT FILLING THE RESERVOIR WILL CAUSE OVERHEATING.
I stand to be corrected.

Conner44:


First empty the radiator (loosen the drain plug under it) and once the radiator is completely empty switch on your engine for a few minutes until your temperature needle reaches the middle (I am assuming you have a thermostat) and once it reaches the middle you can then switch off the engine, replace the radiator drain plug and then proceed to fill up the radiator with the coolant.

Start the engine again and leave the radiator cap open, once the coolant level goes down fill it up, keep filling it up till it's level then replace the cover.

Remember to leave the coolant overflow container empty till after the engine has cooled down properly before you can now fill it up with coolant to the recommended level.

DO NOT FILL THE COOLANT OVERFLOW CONTAINER UNTIL YOU HAVE PROPERLY BLED THE COOLING SYSTEM TO REDUCE THE RISK OF OVERHEATING

How exactly does filling the overflow container lead to overheating?

If yes, how much and pictures if possible.

I was sock today with my findings

I took my exhaust manifold out. V6 accord

The bank 1 downstream sensor was faulty all along . I have been using it like that for months.

But when i took out both exhaust manifold the bank 1 exhaust was clear white/gray in color. Putting your finger inside to scrub it will not stain your finger. It look dried and clear and more like engine that is working properly.

But the bank 2 exhaust manifold was black. Putting your finger to touch inside will stain your finger with black soot.

The both exhaust manifold was the same black inside before the bank one became faulty. I called my mechanic attention to it and ask him this two which one is consuming fuel he said its the black soot one. But i told him that is the one the both O2 sensor is working.

The other one inside was clear with all soot varnish is the one the downstream O2 sensor is not working.

My findings is still not clear if its the sensor responsible? Could it be because of the faulty sensor? The car might be on lopes mode which reduces the fuel.

If that is the case I might end up disconnecting the other downstream sensor.

I need clarification on this finding and it might solve all fuel consumption.

Thanks

Which year?
And what are you calling bank 1 and bank 2?
Bank 1 is facing the firewall and bank 2 is facing the radiator. Did you get it correct?

AliExpress app total mess
I pity those wey wait till today to shop.

Bros, you still de follow AliExpress sales? I laugh in Swahili.
Omo, you are still playing with Chinese folks.
Lemme tell you what those guys do. A week before the so-called sales, the prices of most items go up. When the sales day comes, they will return the original price and tag it "sales price". They are just using our brains by giving us the feeling that prices crashed, when in reality, nothing crashed. This simply means that the worst time to buy anything on AliExpress is a week to any "major sales" and that the sales is just "every other day on AliExpress".

Remedy007:
Please, those of you that still order from AliExpress, which card do you guys use?, I need to make some serious purchase urgently.

Klasha is still up if you don't mind the exchange rate.

Bros calm down. I believe in miracles. Demons are after my car gearbox. A miracle is what I need right now.

BoyiBernard:
I experienced something unusual. My 2012 accord has had a p0420 for months and i was told i need to replace the catalyst. I drove through a pool of water over a week ago and the check engine light that had been on went off and hasn't come back on. Scanned the car and the error is no longer there. Wondering what the water had to do with it.

Miracle healing. Isn't God a miracle worker? Please where is this miracle water? I want to drop my spoilt gearbox in it.

Does bat and his goons realize that there's something called demand and supply? That is the most basic law in economics.
If we do not strive to reduce our spending, we will forever cry over the dollar.

icon91:


I suspected as much since nothing tangible is been effected to cushion the high demand of dollar, encourage production & substitute for a lot for the benefit of a common man, that's why i'm not keeping my hopes high when it comes to anything 9ja, prepare for the worst & still pray for the best, no wonder Klasha & other Fintechs no gree their card funding to work for some days now

Most Nigerians lack integrity & are mostly dishonest lots, yet want a better 9ja
Odiegwu!

Man must survive anyways!

I agree we lack integrity. But if you look at it closely, you will observe that something is fueling that lack of integrity, and that is poverty. A lot of people are just struggling to make ends meet, struggling to survive.
A typical example is a policeman on 50k salary. How exactly is he supposed to survive without being corrupt when his whole salary can not buy a bag of rice? A civil servant whose salary is 70k. A worker in a private firm whose salary is less than minimum wage. A cab driver buying fuel at 650 and expected to feed a family of 4 and send them to the university.
People are just suffering and nothing fuels corruption like suffering.

It will not work till dollar gets back to 1200-1300. That is the plan. It is same with almost all Fintech. It is intended to create artificial scarcity to drive the dollar back up.

Olamak1:
I just can't come to terms with the fact that US dollar has again risen astronomically against the naira in just a couple of hours. About this time last week, we all had a sigh of relieve that at least one could get 1 dollar for ₦950. Unfortunately, that joy has become short-lived. As at now, 1 dollar in the black market is ₦1,100 +

This country, eh!

All the people that came to shout that BAT is working, that his plans of strategically bringing down the dollar is working, that shame to others who don't see his master plan, where are you all now? Starting from Buhari's government to BAT, Nigeria is nothing but a ship without a captain drifting freely in the ocean. Once in a while it will drift in the right direction but then continue getting further lost. The captain is busy borrowing fuel from other ships to continue partying while his ship keeps drifting hopelessly.
Between 2016 and 2020, as much as N37 billion was spent on the Aso Rock Villa. In 2021 alone, some N11.04 billion was again spent on renovations at the Villa. Why is the Aso Rock Villa gulping so much every year, at the expense of the Nigerian public?
This is billions with B, not millions. (1,000,000,000). If your salary is a constant 500k, (which extremely few nigerians make), it will take you 166yrs and 8mth to make 1bn. Let that sink in.
So are you surprised naira is crashing?

GreaterFuture:
Platinum and diamond level users, what's it like?
Any major advantages? That are constant?

Next to NONE
You will not notice any reduction in price. Even the listed items specialty for diamond costumers, which contains mostly useless things, the price difference is hardly noticeable.
I think the ranking is just there to make you feel special when you are not.

Neocolonialism is making you believe that dollar is the standard of life. Everything should be measured against the dollar. I don't blame America one bit. I blame Africa.

Babalegba:
I don't even have a dog in the race due to the fact that I I find it impossible to respect a Nigerians intellectual competence especially in leadership.. You might just have reason to celebrate after all. I went to get some dollars yesterday. I was quoted 1k in the morning but when I got to the aboki in the afternoon he insisted on 1050 saying that naira has weakened. So maybe you are going to get your wish after all and things are going to get really bad for Nigeria Mass starvation,total insecurity, stagflation and anarchy looms.

You intellectual competence should also be doubted if you think any Nigerian is celebrating the disaster that this country is right now. Who is enjoying buying dollar at this rate? Who?
I'm sure you want what every other Nigerian wants, a stable economy. We only have different opinions on who can help stabilise the economy. I'm very sure that the only people that do not want this country to be better are the ones not complaining about this country right now.

Babalegba:
Many nigerians will not be happy at these turn of events. They are hoping the economy will crash and biblical chaos would envelope Nigeria,all because their candidate did not win.
I mentioned the government's plan for naira stability on this thread and one person attacked me with glee when the naira nosedived.He was so happy that the economy was poorly.Nigeria is full of saboteurs betting against their own country and I've realized that it has no real hope.

Oga, go and sit down. No single Nigerian will be happy to see this country the way it is right now. Nobody is sabotaging anybody. We have to stop this ridiculous blame game. Buhari continued the blame game for 8yrs and see where we are right now. The people you are referring to are only angrier because they saw it coming and rightly so. The other people like you are only looking for things to hold on to and say "we were right".
And come to think of it, can you tell us one single thing this government is doing that is resulting in the crash of the dollar? I don't know one. If there's none, then let us not get our hopes high. A ship lost at sea will drift to the right direction once in a while.
Having said this, let us go back to AliExpress matters.

I thought it was only Klasha that locked up. These guys are part of the problem with naira. They do everything to push it up for their own gains. Now they are trying to create artificial scarcity to drive the price up again. Just before klasha packed up, the rate was $=#1008. Who knows what it is now?
I blame cbn that pushed us into the arms of these greedy fintechs. CBN is to blame for what is happening to naira. You claim you want to save naira by stopping to sell naira to us. But then you sell to people that eventually sell to us at higher prices. Creating a greedy middle man. CBN e no go better for you.

Good day guys. Does Speedaf still sends mail updates about shipping info? I made some orders and I can't really tell from the tracking numbers if they are coming via Speedaf or not. I dread having anything to do with NIPOST.

Yes, they do.

Car is 2007 Honda Accord with V6.
Problem is rough 1-2 upshift. Every other shift is smooth as butter. No check engine or transmission error light on the instrument cluster.
Engine seat are not in best conditions.
Could the engine seat be the problem? Or is something wrong with the gearbox? Please I need help.

Ifeanyi4491:
boss abeg can you recommend me card to use on Ali apart from klasha chipper and bitnob

Klasha is still very good and I've been using it for almost a year now without complains. Just know that their rate now is #1311. But you pay a token to get a the card and also a token each time you fund the card.

Olamak1:


If you have been following the whole drama right from inception, you should have known by now that this government has one major objective in mind – reducing importations to the barest minimum.

So, the persistent rise in the value of dollar as against the naira is just it's means of achieving that goal –discourage people from importation.

Are you actually saying the fall of naira is a good thing? I want to understand you.

acorntree:
For me, all online purchase on AliExpress suspended till ....

When BAT told you that he doesn't care about the dollar rate you thought he was joking? Omo, we are just starting. Dollar will cross #1500 before this year runs out and will hit #3000 next year.
Save this post.

Abahboniface45:


The whole thing is really annoying
Where do we go from there?
The worst of all is there are almost no alternative to what we buy on AliExpress in Nigeria

Don't forget that your government is planning to buy 300+ suv for themselves running into billions of naira. No, they are not interested in Innoson motors. Made in Nigeria things irritate them. They will soon come to tell you that change begins with you.
Naira never even start to fall sef. This is just the beginning. Mark my words.

Any idiot that is desperate to trend but has absolutely nothing valuable to offer will remember Peter Obi. May you drown in your hatred.

When you want to buy a $50 wristwatch on AliExpress in 2027.

Going to buy $10 with naira by 2027.

Dollar rate now on klasha is #1276.49.
I'm just imagining dollar rate by dec 2024. E go be like 5k per dollar.
