After removal of the negative battery terminal we proceed by inspecting all 8 spark plugs and 8 ignition coils and also throttle actuator. Throttle body was found to be very dirty as a result of misfire issue

Thanks all and big boss Gazzuzz, I have done that, everything has been checked and OK... The only thing I was ask to change is the co start, because it takes longer seconds to pick compare to a regular car, I have even change the brainbox to make sure hard start is not coming from there, I change the kick starter as well, but as at Monday when the rewire was working on it, feul did not supply to the engine until the fuel pump was changed... Just exhausted right now. I really need help on how to go about this.

Why not have the vehicle scanned and diagnosed properly. What brand of Hyundai is this?

To start this we would commence with the removal of the negative terminal of the car's battery to avoid any form of electrical mishap. This ride came with a Bosch battery with a cold cranking capacity of 850 at 0 degrees Fahrenheit

A brief explanation to the secondary air injection system. This system helps build up oxygen through a vacuum line which is reused for combustion process. We would majorly focus on the misfire faults because we worked on a very tight budget

Car came into the workshop with rough idling and sluggish movement. Excessive black smoke from exhaust tail pipe.

Car was scanned usig the autel maxi Sys elite by mayor and we had the following fault errors retrieved from the powertain control module:

1) p2432- secondary air injection system air flow/pressure sensor circuit low, bank 1

2) p2431- secondary air injection system air flow/pressure sensor- circuit range /performance, bank1

3) p2610- engine control module/ powertain control module internal engine off timer performance

4) U0167- lost communication with vehicle immobiliser control module

5) P0303- cylinder 3 misfire detected

6)p0307- cylinder 7 misfire detected

7) p0300- Random cylinder misfire

cool p0313- misfire detected with low fuel

First thing was to have the codes cleared and go for a spin and rescan to see what faults we have left after car has gone through a complete drive cycle. After clearing what we had the remaining faults

SortOut:
On noticing excessive jerks while switching from P to D and R, I called my mechanic and he checked one of the engine seats. He concluded that the engine seats be changed. He gave two options, buy new ones (expensive), or fix bushings to replace the bouncing rubbers.

I chose the bushings due to reduced cost compared to the new replacement part. Immediately after fixing, I started the car, the body vibrates excessively from inside, but the initial jerk while using the auto gear level is no longer noticeable.

The excessive body vibration is tiring, and doesn't give a smooth ride...so unappealing

Please help

What car is this?

1GR-FE. Close to 1m. Best bet is to have that engine changed. When you are asked to use the right specification of engine oil there is a reason cry

Knock sensor malfunction will not make your pcm goes into limb mode .Beside you already stated that the gear will still shift after you rev hard so that so that nullified the fact that pcm is in limb mode.
Check the transmission scan data
Have personally seen this sir in some cars it would. Transmission wouldn't shift well

Fix that knock sensor problem then. The knock sensor retards the ignition timing between 3-5 degrees. This can make your car go into limp mode.

If you had run a scan like you said and your check light is on then you should have some faults stored on your car's engine control unit

please I need an advise.
I have an acura mdx 2001 toks. Everything is OK.but noticed if I start the car and move the gear to R or D it jerks little not in a harsh way.After movement for sometime it doesn't do that again. Everyone says no problems. Just want to be sure.

There is problem. You could be having a transmission issue which appears mild but with time would generate into something else. Run a scan on transmission. Another area to check is your engine mounts

Stop cleaning up your injectors locally. This is the best tool used in cleaning up your car fuel injectors.
Pets › Re: I Need Help, My Pup Has Parvo by mayor2013: 7:15am On Oct 07, 2017
90% of vets in Nigeria are big quacks some do not not know how to manage Parvo. You need to start medications for yourself if you truly love your dog. Have add different breed of dogs ranging from boerboel to rott to GSD. I can confidently tell you the rotts are more susceptible to Parvo. Boerboel have got a strong immune to parvo.

Go down to a pharmacy get syringe, get amoxil 500mg, get diastop which is a liquid then get glucose. Do not feed your dog for now. Drop glucose in water and use syringe to administer by a taking drips and put in the dog's mouth. Do same for the diastop too. Use the amoxil from day1 for every 6hrs. Your dog would loose weight though but when he or she is alright would be ready to eat.
Lastly, get hypo to wash faeces and pea and it's environment which is highly contagious to other pups within the environment. If you have other pups isolation is the first thing to be done. Wish you best of luck
