@oyibomoses
why should you just assume that it is the plug that is the issue? are u a magician?
Oga OP, do a scan on your car only then can u be sure.My take on this is that it could be a cylinder misfire or random multiple cylinder misfire which could be a symptom of faulty spark plugs or the Coil.

@Sienna
Wow! All these?
I see those 2 Australian guys do it on mightycarmods on youtube and it seems so easy! wow i better have a rethink and just settle with my naturally aspirated vehicle
Car TalkRe: Abuja Street Car Racing Gallery/discussions by mikkyphp(m): 5:41am On Dec 06, 2012
ok fine, we've heard all the Hoo-haas...Can we just cut the OP some slack? Please!!!
A great thread for enthusiasts is gradually being ruined! I gladly appreciate the safety minded people n all, but these guys seem to know what they are doing - they say they race in controlled environments.

@OP, do you guys do aftermarket vehicle tuning - like fitting a turbo/super charger, mod-exhaust, rear wing fitting, lowering suspensions, fitting a front splitter or rear diffuser n all? would be interested in car mods that enhance vehicle performace from the base model.
Car TalkRe: Abuja Street Car Racing Gallery/discussions by mikkyphp(m): 9:01am On Dec 02, 2012
Many of you guys are just "Kill-joys".
lol @ the 400mph chick. - she said it more than twice Sienna...i was beginning to wonder if the c63 AMG had a Global express bombardier engine fitted..
we dont have speed limits on our roads, so its understandable that when there is no law, there is no offence. but these guys should be more careful.
Car TalkRe: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Nissan Cars? by mikkyphp(m): 2:20pm On Sep 30, 2012
Siena: Your friend's method of checking fuel consumption is seriously flawed. You can't work out consumption data by saying a 100-litre tank runs dry in a week, driving from Ketu to Marina daily. That means nothing. I don't know what the route is like - distance, average speeds reached on these trips, coolant temperature (does the engine ever get up to full operating temp?) Short trips are heavier on fuel than long ones.

And I feel your friend is expecting too much from his Nissan Altima. It has a big 2,5L motor mated to a heavy automatic tranny, and he expects it to be as economical as a Toyota Corolla 1,4. To produce good power, you need to produce heat. And to produce heat, you need to burn fuel, end of. If your buddy feels the Altima is too juicy, there's always the Nissan Sunny 1,4L.
@Sienna, even your explanation aside, my 3.5L V6 2005 Altima uses about 4.6L of petrol from iyana ipaja area to v/i (1 direction) which is in the range of 35km, by far farther than magodo to v/i which is a str8 line. So there's definitely a problem with that 2003, 2.5L Altima engine.

FamilyRe: How She Changed A Cheating Husband by mikkyphp(m): 4:41pm On Sep 14, 2012
@pufectskin, you just read everything upside down. That clearly isn't what the poster meant! The cruxx of the story isnt the gift, it's the fact that she chose to be happy and stop nagging @ her husband and givin herself stress...The guy turned a new leaf! and not the other way around. I sense some cynicism and sarcasm in your post.


pufectskin: Wow! So let me get this:
1. The woman is saying her new car gift means her hubby now cares and has regard for her and their marriage?
2. She is telling her female children that their future spouses can continue to hurt and emotionally abuse them as long as he buys them material possessions?
3. She is telling her sons that it is okay to treat their women like that too?
4. She is also saying the institution of marriage is really just a paper and doesn't require any respect?
All I can say is has she gone to verify if he has contracted any stds? He just might be buying time till his disease gets worse and he becomes a bag of bones. He'd need her then, afterall she is his booty licker (always stayed even when he treated like d trash she thinks she is).
Car TalkRe: Honda EOD Users: I4 vs V6 Issues by mikkyphp(m): 4:06pm On Sep 14, 2012
@OP for the record, there's nothing like V4, it is I4 - Inline 4 cylinders. Meaning the cylinders are arranged in a straight line, while for v6, you have 3 cylinders on each side of the engine arranged in a V-shape to each other. This shape provides higher engine displacement, hence more power.
I do agree with your views on the V6 engine as i have one as well, though a Nissan, the problem is many roadside mechanics dont have sufficient skill set on V6 engines, hence they discourage people. Another thing is fuel consumption(which isnt significally higer) and the Naija crowd mentality. Thats why everybody is buying 99 camry in 2012.lol

CareerRe: UNIX Professional Meets Here. by mikkyphp(m): 8:15am On Sep 05, 2012
@bolof2000, i guess a suitable name for this thread should be UNIX Professionals as it's all encompassing and the father of all. then you can get guys from telecoms, service provider environments as well as enterprise contributing. It's cool. Unix is lovely,i work with Oracle Solaris 10, a little with red-hat back in my enterprise days.
I like your advice to Ganddy that he shouldn't focus on the exam, instead instead he should focus on knowledge. It's sad that a lot of people resort to certificate collection these days and not knowledge. Unix isnt for the faint hearted, you need to be willing to go all the way, and it certainly pays off in the end.
CareerRe: How Do I Start A Career In Telecommunication With A B.sc In Mathematics? by mikkyphp(m): 8:51pm On Aug 09, 2012
@Lamba Lamb
good to know about your first class degree. If you are sound in Information Technology, with a bias for programming, scripting,CLI etc, i'd advice you learn UNIX. This is a valuable skill in the telecoms industry. It will be easier for them to take you in as an entry level practitioner( who can be trained to do other related things/tasks), because most Telecoms infrastructure are running some base UNIX code.
NOTE: ask yourself where your career passion truly lies. Like for me, I'm doing sth totally different from what i studied in Uni.
