PoliticsRe: Governor Amaechi Calls For Ngf Meeting by midpoint: 10:17am On Jun 25, 2013
what GEJ would have done is simply ask Jang to summon a meeting of his own faction same day same time to discuss same issues and he would have achieved the same thing instead of embarassing himself this way.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Unannounced Vacancies In Abuja by midpoint: 12:00pm On Jun 17, 2013
I went to NUC the security guys did not let me in. They said i should come back tommoro. I went to Public Complains Commission and submitted the CV but one man who works there told me they are not recruiting at the moment. In didnt go to Corporate Affairs. But i think these places will hardly employ without advertisment.

Ikenna351: I won't be surprised if the factory Ah for the 307 is 45 Ah. Even my 505 V6 owners manual stated the battery Ah should be 45Ah.

When i got the car, the dealer bought and put 68Ah, which was too big for the small space designed to enter 45Ah. The battery died some months back and i replaced it with 62Ah instead.

My point is, the battery is only there to crank the engine or power electronics when the engine is not running. Once the engine starts running, the Alternator takes over powering the electronics that manage the engine and other car accessories. Thats why you can remove the battery while engine is still running and the engine will still be running (which is not safe for EFIs, though). Its the Alternator that even powers your A/C, not the battery. Your battery will only starts powering the engine electronics, if the charging circuit in the Alternator fails or if the Alternator belt is slippery or broken. Also, if the battery terminal heads are not well fixed, it could run down the battery.

So, its safe to use the 62Ah, which may even be safer. Because you dont know what that excess Ah from the 68Ah battery will be doing to the car electronics. The car manufacturers know why they recommend lower Ah for their cars. But we the car owners choose to do otherwise. Am a victim here too.

Ikenna.
Thanks so much. i will check the manual to confirm. in my case the 62 Ah battery is smaller than the battery space and am even wondering if the battery will be going up and down if i climb and come down a hill.
Car TalkRe: Peugeot: Cars With Attitude! by midpoint: 9:37am On Nov 26, 2012
My car battery died few days ago and i changed it but i discovered later that the old one was 68 amps while the new is 62. will it affect the car performance in anyway? i use a 307.

Ikenna351: I have been going round Abuja lately, looking for a free space where we can organize and have a "Peugeot day", for those of us in Abuja, but am yet to find one. Does anyone have a place in mind? We have only December 8th or 15th to pull this off, if we want to do this. Both days are Saturdays.

For those outside Abuja, even if we fail to do ours, you can still organize and do yours. Every town meetings and organisations meet at the end of every year to celebrate and close the year. I dont see why this should be difficult, if we are determined.

Please, lets give it a shot.

Ikenna.
This is a great idea. I will be glad to be part of it!

Car TalkRe: Peugeot: Cars With Attitude! by midpoint: 8:49am On Sep 12, 2012
Ikenna351: Its possible that your injectors or fuel filter are clogged, from dirts that in the fuel tank when you ran the engine on reserve or nearly empty tank. Whatever that means, its an injection issue.

You can start by replacing the fuel filter. Then, get a good fuel injector cleaner. Unfortunately, we dont have Techron (Chevron product) in Nigerian markets. The best injection fuel system cleaner, so far. But you can try the Mobil or TOTAL injection system cleaner. The best usually is to clean them off the car. But how and with what? Carburetor cleaner? Don't try it.

Aside cleaning the injection system, if you can afford scanning the car ecu for error code(s), it wont be a bad idea. This is why i always advise people to try and have their own individual scanners, so that you wont have to be spending huge amount of money in scanning the car at commercial place, for every little issue with your car.

Ikenna
thanks!

My Peugeot 307 shakes and displays "Depollution System Faulty" sometimes when I start it. What could be the problem? I noticed it first time during the last Abuja fuel scarcity when my fuel went very low before i could refuel.

Ikenna351: Have you done wheel balancing on the 4 wheels? That should stop the vibration, as long as none of your tyres is wombling and that your front end bushings are ok.

As for the ABS, did someone tampered with the wheel sensors, the last time you worked on any of the wheels?

Ikenna.
what if the tyres are wobbling. what could be wrong?
