Car Talk / Back To Volkswagen (fix Tips) by mrcoolautofix(m): 10:03am On May 12, 2023
Hello, I will be giving you guys free tips on how to fix your volkwagen.

Intro,

German Star Mechanic.

I have heard this cars are full of electric problems, however I started my diy from volkswagen make 3 in 2014 then proceed to mk4, then mk 5 currently i own Golf mk4, jetta 5, then Passat b6. Simply put, your mechanics lacks proficient tools know how and talent.

Lets start with the engine then we proceed to electrical electronics. Common issues and fix

Golf 3 first

Their recommeded motor oil is castrol, if you cant afford it, get total quarz 5000 or 7000, mobile super 1000 or 20000.

All vw cars are strictly engineered for high performance, Gasoline Ron 95.

Using lower decreases the longevity of your engine.
GOLF 3 makes OIL ALARM noise when oil service has been overdue for replacement, oil presure sensor could be bad, located on top oil filter.

if the noise is accompanied with rattling noise, you need to replace the oil pump, or service it using carb cleaner not fuel.

Oil light flashing or noise at long distance travel is due to low viscosity in the oil, adding oil treat will fix the problem then create sluge if not replaced after 5000 km/h.

Engine ratting noise, but motor oil fresh, oil presure sensor is confirmed Good, there are sluge attacking the hydralics lifters,

Solution > replacement is the best fix.

Car will not start, but start when you get fuel into the monotronic carb aka electric carburator,

Solution> digifant aka engine electronics not getting power, fuse number 16 likely blown or loosed contact

Car start then jerk when you slow down, it will shut down.

Solution > TPS replacement, they will call it fibre,

Car rev up and down all by it self,

Solution > idle control valve, the first component atatched to the electric carburator.

Car will not start, but spins well aka cranks fine, or ocasionally starts up,

Solution > bad distributor or broken timing belt


Car back tire pulling issue,
Solution > upgrade the rear drum brake system to calipper type that comes with GT or Vr6 or GTI eddition.

Golf 3 brings out black smoke,

Solution > replace the tps then calibrate it, replace the four pin coolant temperature sensor on the radiator juntion hose going into the engine.

Golf 3 does hard start in the morning,

Solution > idle air control valve could be faulty or bad coolant sensor.

Volkswagen golf 4 issue and solution coming up....

Car start then shut down

Solution > throttle body cleaning with carb cleaner if the problem persist replace the throtle body.
Volkswagen jetta mk5 issue and solution coming up..
Volkswagen passat 2.0T issue & Fix coming up..
Volkswagen Tuareg issue & fix coming up next

fineboynl:
Using battery to power alternator to also recharge the battery is not fixable.

Many research has been done to that effect but their is no answer.

Reason is that you can not recharge your supplier.

Many years ago i did research concerning the same thing but there was no way out.

You didnt watch video, cos you believed that if you say its not posible then everyone will back off?

jceesquare:
Bros; synthetic or no synthetic, the No. 1 killer for all engine is using the wrong oil weight for the car over a prolong time coupled with late and extended oil change, and that death comes quickly during cold start as it will take the oil longer time to flow to vital components especially to the top.
The synthetic material in the oil is just a bloody cleaning agent to help prevent sludge formation amongst other things.
What killed your engine is sludge build up from mineral oil (other factors to would contribute to it) and widened gaps in the cylinder wall from using wrong oil weight.
The synthetic oil just exposed the true state of your engine to you.
You are not entirely wrong or correct. Synthetic oil is not meant for all car engine..

I have been running experiment recently with my car engine to know what works better,

Before you switch to synthetic oil you need to watch this, before now the gap between synthetic oil and mineral oil is huge but now, its very tiny, so switched to synthetic and you will be shocked what happened to my engine

Car Talk / Top Cause by mrcoolautofix(m): 8:29am On May 03, 2023
Listed for sure Hello top 10, most common reasons for hi. I am dr. Cool autofix in this brief but yet most comprehensive video. I will be teaching you top 10 most common cause of high fuel consumption in your car and how to fix it.
needless to tell you to subscribe to my channel like or share, cause it makes no sense if I am actually teaching human on how to fix their car problems. If you try to group all possible causes of increased fuel consumption, then there will be only two of them. First, the engine is running inefficiently due to Mechanical or electrical electronics factors. Simply put some of the gasoline diesel or gas is wasted. The second Global reason is, when something interferes with the movement of the car, that is, there is some harmful resistance to overcome which the engine Burns additional fuel. But there is also one unique reason that does not belong to any of the group's described. Let's start with her,
1. low-quality fuel, the lower the quality of the gasoline, the Higher consumption, a very common cause of increased fuel consumption at all times of the existence of the car. Poor-quality fuel is sometimes filled. Even at the most trusted gas stations that you visit regularly at random gas stations, the come across on the highway during long trips. Oops, stumbling upon pulley, burning gasoline or diesel fuel turning into jelly is generally a common thing. The biggest problem with this cause is that it is almost never noticed, immediately after refueling as a rule, if the fuel is not of completely disgusting quality, the overrun is noticed after many kilometers sometimes low quality gasoline makes itself felt at all on the second day. In such cases, few people begin to sin at the gas station. Blaming the car or secondary factors for the increased consumption. This reason also has an advantage, The increased consumption disappears when low quality fuel is produced or its concentration in the tank decreases due to refueling with a new portion. That is why only with regular accounting can you start to panic about overspending you know exactly what the average fuel consumption should be under certain circumstances and if the numbers increase between You will immediately understand what is the reason in addition to the quality of the fuel, its consumption is also affected by the octane number, if it is gasoline. For example, if the engine of your car is designed for the 95th and you decide to save money. They 92nd you are guaranteed, an increased consumption as a rule. The problem is accompanied by a decrease in throttle response and other signs of unsuitable fuel.
2. Aggressive driving. One of the most common causes of increased fuel consumption is aggressive driving, Driving aggressively and calm driving are teo distinctive different thing, driving are understood by many in different ways. The Border looks like this, an aggressive driver starts. Bristly from a standstill turns the engine up to four to five thousand revolutions to switch to the next gear, Maintains a high speed to the last and then intensively works out the brakes. The other driver starts to drive smoothly does not press his foot hard flooring the gas shifts gears at the lowest possible speed sees the stopping place in advance. Releases the gas in a timely manner uses engine braking more than the main breaks at the same time. The second fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 7 meters and the first has 15 liters and kept driving is a separate topic which cannot be studied within the framework of this video.
It'e best to leave only a few of this infos, relying on which those who are curios will expand their knowledge.
3. overload by using system features like AC or Towing trailers. Your things will not move from point A to point B for free, an increase in the mass of the car directly affects the increase in fuel consumption. Everything is extremely simple here to move any load, you need to spend energy and the heavier this, Slowed, the more energy is needed. Only fuel consumption increases. It is believed that every additional 100 kilograms of weight. Carried, increases gasoline, consumption by 10%, That is the four people are sitting in the cabin accept you as the driver. Plus, the trunk is loaded with some things. Then fuel consumption can easily increase one and a half times from the nominal.
4. clogged air filter, if the engine does not have enough air, It runs on a rich mixture, The condition of the air filter effects, how much air will flow into the fuel mixture preparation system. If the air filter is clogged with dust, dirt, leaves, insects and has not changed for several tens of thousands of kilometers, fuel consumption can increase up to 50%. Meanwhile, many motorists. Do not even know where this filter is or simply. Forget about its existence under the hood under normal vehicle. Operating conditions, it is Amended to change the air filter to a new one, every 20,000 kilometers. If the car is often in Dusty, areas used to drive through forests, dirt roads. And so on, replacement may be required every 5,000 kilometers. Fortunately, it costs a penny. Therefore, do not neglect these recommendations. Moreover, you will then save the money. Spent on the filter on fuel
5. driving on low tire pressure, the lower the presure in the tires, the harder it is for the engine to push the car and the more it consumes fuel. When the air pressure in the wheels of a car is below normal. The contact patch changes significantly, this is the area where the tire is constantly in contact with the road surface. The larger, the area of this same contact patch, the higher the resistance of the rolling friction force. And this in turn means that it is harder for the engine to push the car forward accordingly, more fuel is required for a particular mileage. Normal tire pressure for each vehicle is indicated in the owners manual. Many people intentionally inflate their tires with high pressure, which of course allows you to save a little on fuel. However, such savings are not worthwhile since over inflated tires wear out Faster. In addition, it should be remembered. The two smaller. Contact patch adversely affects the Chuckles handling in particular, the braking distance increases as well, as the risk of drift or skidding. When maneuvering
6. bad coolant temperature sensor or driving on a cold engine, if we take the increased fuel consumption into mind, then driving on an unheated engine can be neglected today driving a cold engine and driving with a bad coolant temperature. Have nearly similar fuel consumption only that, there are often opinions that modern engines, do not need warming. And this does not affect fuel consumption in any way which is not true. Over the past 20 years, Technology has changed remarkably, Motors are made not from cast iron, but from aluminum, the thickness of the parts has decreased and they warm up much faster than before. But even the most modern engine, is not able to reach operating temperature Instantly, it takes at least five minutes, even in the summer, in the meantime. The engine is cold it consumes, more fuel than is written by the manufacturer in the technical specifications. If the car is evolved years of production, and it's not yet, some are outside, then, reaching the operating temperature and the most economical consumption takes more than 15 minutes. This is a proven fact, which is simply useless to dispute. Quite visual tests have recently appeared on the web proving that an unheated engine is a good reason for increased fuel. Consumption. If your car is having a bad coolant temperature sensor, that will be worst of all.
7. driving on winter tires. In summer winter, tires are softer and therefore create additional resistance either in pursuit of dubious savings or simply because of a lack of money for the roads are full of cars. Shot in winter tires, in summer, however, tires for winter user made of soft rubber and also have a higher tread with a fine detail. Latin all this impaired. Rolling on hard surfaces respectively, resists movement, as a result fuel consumption Goes Up In fairness, it should be said that driving in the summer on winter tires. Does not increase fuel consumption, very much approximately, three to five percent but here we must also take into account that winter tires, become too soft in summer, which increases the braking distance and worsens. The cars handling that is it is also unsafe that why Why in some Western countries, it's an offence to Cross Drive tires for regardless of it primary objective.
8. defective turbo. If your car is not natural, aspirated engine, it's turbocharged. Turbo is used to engine the engine power and improve fuel economy, when your turbo lag or failed, lots of things kicked in and one of those is a poor gas mileage due to that fact, the engine will lost 40% if it Powerhouse critical components that improved it power output. The replacement of the turbo will be best fix under this condition worn out, clutch and warming. The car in the morning.
9. problems with the ignition system. If gasoline, ignites, early late or every other time, some of it simply flies out into the pipe. This reason applies only to gasoline engines, including those who work together with HBO, there may be several problems too, early or late ignition large or small gap between the electrode. So the spark plugs incorrectly timed engine exhaust leaks. Defective catalytic converter, failed or triggered candles every other time. Punched high-voltage, wires failures in the computer. Bad spark, plug bad ignition, coil resulting into engine misfire in order for a gasoline engine to operate at maximum efficiency and consume a minimum of fuel. The spark must be timely and powerful enough. And in each of the cylinders, if one of the conditions is not met fuel consumption, increases.
10. problems with the air fuel system, air fuel mixture, preparation is a critical process for its work. Any internal combustion engine uses. Not only fuel, but also are. And now the consumption directly depends on the proportions and quantities in which the air-fuel mixture is supplied to the cylinders.
It can be called Baretta or injection for diesels. This is done by the injection pump. In modern engines, electronics are responsible for the operation of the fuel system. The ECM in turn focuses on the signals of a dozen sensors. Failure of any of them can cause increased fuel consumption. Such as MAF sensor oxygen sensor, intake air temperature, sensor, bad or clogged injectors, bad fuel pump or clogged Fuel filter, but throttle position sensor, throttle body or bad carburetor in carbureted engines, everything is much simpler and clearer unlike computerized system. That is non carburetted in carburetor systems. The main thing there is to properly adjust the preparation of the air-fuel mixture before it hits the combustion chamber, as well as keep the Jets clean, if your car is from 1996 to date. You can hook up a scan tool with your car to pull out trouble codes Stored in your ECM, This are the most commonly cause of higher fuel consumption in your car and didn't get out the above listed factors.

Top 10 Reason why Your check engine light is on.

hello, I am doctor cool auto fix.

in today video, i will be teaching your top 10 reasons why your check engine light is on.

if you are coming to my channel for the first time, subscribe to my channel now, click on the bell icon and seat back and watch.

check engine light is a way wich the engine electronics control module communicate with the driver about engine critical component that is on the fright, sometimes it could be as simple as a loosed gas cap that is not tightened well enough, as this loosed gas cap allows fuel fumes to escape into the atmosphere, it is unsafe for the enviroment, due to this fact that fuel fumes are product of hydrocaborns that isn't friendly with the enviroment, thats why your car manufacturer coded your ecm to throw check engine light at the event of a loosed gas cap, a simple tightning of this loose gas cap to specs might solve the check engine light issue.

in other words, there other common engine commponent that are engineered to ensure the smooth operation of your car engine. in this content, I will be brief with teaching you this simple engine electronics, dont be alarmed, most of them are easy find and easy replacement when they get bad.

1. A bad ignition coil p0350 to p0353.

igntion coil is among the top engine electronics component engineeered to turn your 12 volts battery into 20 thousand volts, this will be the visible blue sparks that your spark plugs uses to ignite the air fuel mixture in your engine cumbustion chamber,
take the ignition coil like a transformer that you will find across the street of your residence,
when the ignition coil fails, you will have poor engine performance, when that occurs, the ecu will throw a check engine light, most igntion coils last up to 100 thousand miles before failing.

2. bad mass air flow sensor p0100-p0104 or map sensor p0105-p0109

mass air flow sensor aslo known as maf sensor and map are tasked to do the same job in different engine configuration, to report accurate data about the mass of air flowing into your engine to mix with fuel, the right quantity of 14.7 part of air has to mix with one part of fuel to cumburst correctly,
when these maf sensor gets dirty or failed, it will feed the ecu with false data about the mass of air going into your engine, most times over a long usage of your car, this maf sensor get clogged with dirts and debris out of a bad fuel filter, this is mostly common problems with cars driven in a dusty enviroment. this dirts coat the sensing area of your maf sensor, which in turns shield it from taking the data correctly, and result into false report, before replacing your maf sensor, try using a mass sensor cleaner to clean this sensor first and double check, clear the error code, if it persist then replace it cos when it fails. it disrupt the smooth oparation of your engine, which will make the ecm to throw a check engine light

3. bad o2 sensor or oxegen sensor, p0130 - p0167

o2 sensor is a an engine electronics component engineered snd tasked to measure the amount of unbunt oxegen in your exhaust after comburstion, then report this information to the engine electronics management ecm, the ecm uses these data to adjust the air fuel ratio of your car according to the data it recieved from the oxegen sensor, two bank engine configuration will mostly have 4 o2 sensors, two upstrean And two down stream o2 sensor, most o2 sensor last between 50 to 60 thousand miles, when o2 sensor failed, your car will have poor gas millage or run lean, meaning, it runs more on air than fuel witch in either case is not suitable for the welbeing of your engine. at this jucture, the ecm will throw a check engine light as if unattended to, can compromise the lifespan of your engine.

4. bad spark plugs.

if you are a car owners who is extramely busy, you will likely not know what, where and when about this component called spark plug, spark plugs as the name imply is an engine component that create spark that igninite the air fuel mixture present inside your comurtion chsmber, pricisely on the 3rd stroke of your comburstion circle, if the spark plug failed to ignited the air fuel mixture due to carbon deposite or fauling, this will result into engine misfire, reduced engine power, and ecm throwing a check engine light.

5. bad coolant temperature sensor. error code p1116

engine coolant temperature sensor is a component, a themistor engineered to give accurate report to your ecm as a much as you the driver, this information is used by the ecm to determine how cold or hot the engine is. some car make are often equiped with two, one for engine temperature to alert the driver of the engine temperature, A fail safe component against engine overheating, the second temperature sensor is a coolant temperature sensor, this sensor reports to the ecm of your car about the coolant temperature and engine temperature, this information is vital for engine cold start up procedure as much as fuel efficiency of your car. when this coolant temperature goes bad. your ecm will have trouble manegine your air fuel mixtures, this will lead to poor gas milage, crank no start and poor engine performance, that is the core reason why the ecm often throw a check engine light when this sensor failed.

6. bad intake air temperature sensor, p0110 to p0115.

intake air temperature sensor, is a an engine component engineered to feed the ecm the temparture of air going into your engine, the ecm uses this IAT sensor to enhance the fuel efficiency of your car and ensure smooth opartion of your engine, when this sensor failed, your car will expirience an idle surge, smell of raw gasoline and poor gas milage as much as engine underpeformance, at the cause of failure, the ecm will throw a check engine light to draw your attention.

7. bad throtle position sensor.
throtle position sensor is a sensor within the engine compartment, the throtle position is a potentiometer or variable resistor that is tasked with sensing the position of the butterlfy valve present inside your throtle body, then relay this information to your ecm, the ecm uses this sensor to calibrate the proper air fuel mixture going into your engine to be ignited, when it goes bad, your ecm will throw a check engine light as it can create stalling, hard start and poor gas milage.

8. bad egr valve, p0400-p0408 error code.
egr valve stands for exhuast gad recirculation, this valve recirculate the hot exhaust back in colder form to reduce hamful gases created when air and fuel is ignited in your engine, when egr valve failed, it can get stuck open or close, which either way wont carry out duty it was primarily engirneered for, at the event of failure mostlye due to caborn deposite, will prompt the ecm to throw a check engine light.

9. bad crankshaft or camshaft position sensor, p0335 - p0339 or p0340 - p0344

gone are those days when car engine are equiped with carburator, this days, the hall sensor that is present in the distributor is now relocated to camshaft position of your engine, this now nown as camshaft position sensor, this current engine are equiped wih crankshaft position sensor is engineered to inform the ecm on which cylinder to ignite, when these sensor failled, the ecm will throw a check engine light, at this juncture, the ecm will be clueless as which cylinder to fire, this will result into car crank but will not start up.

10. bad catalytic converter, p0420-p0434. catalytic converter is engine component, engineered to convert haful substances such as sulfur and co2 created after comburtsion into harmless gasses, before getting out of your exhsust system, when the catalyctic converter failed, co2 gets detected by the downstream o2 sensor, the downstream o2 sensor will feed this information to the ecm to throw a check engine light, with error code p0420, which will be interpreted as catalyst perfprmance below threshood, most catalytic convert last between 100 to 150000 miles, this component is very expensive to replace both in part and labour, error code is p0420

although there are other causes of check engine light but these are the top 10 cause of check engine light. reason being that other engine component xan last the lifetime of car.

Top 14 symptoms of bad fuel injector.

Modern cars are built with fuel injection engines in replacement to the use of Carretta.

These engines use fuel injectors to inject Sprinkle gasoline fuel into the engine cylinders for combustion to occur.

However, for pretty different reasons, fuel injectors can get clogged, damaged or failed completely.

A bad fuel injector is a serious issue to get really worried about because it puts the engine at great risk.

But how do you know that your car's fuel injectors are bad?

Now, let's quickly learn more about these bad fuel injector signs. What is a fuel injector?

If this is the first time you're hearing about fuel injectors, it's nothing to worry about actually.

The fuel injector is part electrical component of the engine, and it plays an important role of injecting fuel into your engine.

the fuel injector system receive command from the engine electronics management in a pulse modulation signal.

this component and fuel pump all combine to make up the fuel delivery system. The fuel delivery system works in a simple way.

The fuel pump takes fuel from the tank, pressurizes the fuel to pass through the filter and delivery lines into the injector.

The injector then calculatingly sprays the fuel into the cylinders for combustion to occur to keep the engine running.
when the fuel injector is bad, clogged or damaged it, it sprays too much fuel or too little fuel which would affect combustion.

And in turn affect the engine's overall performance. Fuel injectors are controlled by the ECM.

It is the ECM that tells the injector how much fuel to spray, Sprinkle into the cylinders.

What causes fuel injectors to go bad? The common problem with fuel injectors is clogging or leaking.

When the fuel injectors are clogged, they'd either not spray fuel at all into the engine or mess up the spray intervals which would be detrimental to the wellbeing of the engine and its other components.

You may want to ask what clogged the fuel injectors. It's simple dirt.

Fuel injectors get clogged from hydrocarbons, sediment and other contaminants in the gasoline fuel that passes through them.

Some fuels and gas to contain fine impurities which over time can clog the injectors.

Also, the injectors can get clogged by fumes and debris.

Once the injectors are unable to spray sufficient fuels at accurate intervals, the engine would suffer the consequence and that's when you start experiencing any of the symptoms below.
symptoms of a bad fuel injector.

1. misfiring cylinder engine. This is practically the most common symptom of a bad fuel injector,
when one or more fuel injectors go bad.

The engine cylinders connected to the bad fuel injectors would constantly misfire due to a lack of sufficient fuel supply from the injectors, engine misfires affect acceleration and fuel efficiency as well as cause little vibrations while driving.

If you notice that your car is misfiring.

One of the things to check and troubleshoot is the fuel injectors.

2. mediums or serious engine vibrations. you've experienced serious vibrations when your car is idling.

The vibration happens when the fuel in the cylinders has been utilized and the bad injectors hasn't sprayed more fuel yet.

The vibrations occurring due to clogged injectors, starving the engine the right fuel quantity it needs to function correctly.

3. check engine light is illuminated.

Yeah, there are many things that trigger the check engine light to come on.

A bad injector is part of those things.

When the check engine light comes on, it is important to use an OBD2 scanner to troubleshoot the actual faulty component that triggered the light to come on.

4. rough idling, rough idle is a way which the ECM uses to notify the driver of a problem with engine electronics critical component ECM
it is not normal for a car to shake while idling.

If this happens, it is due to a faulty engine component and it could be the fuel injectors.
once the combustion process is tampered due to insufficiency fuel as a result of a bad fuel injector.
it throws a lot of things out of proportion and can cause the car to shake by rough idling, meanings that your car shakes or sputters while waiting in traffic or when you stop to buy a thing from a roadside shop.

If this is allowed to linger, it can lead to more expensive damages in no distant time.

5. engine stalling, engine stalling refers to the unexpected sensation of the engine about to shut off. you may experience this while driving, stalling is caused by a wide range of faults in the engine bay that is majorly caused due to lack of sufficient fuel supplied to the engine.
that said, a bad fuel injector can cause the engine to stall.
while engine stalling is not a major issue to be concerned about it Calls for concern if it happens pretty often inconsistently, six increased fuel usage.

6. increased fuel consumption. If the fuel injector is not clogged but faulty, there are chances that the faulty bad injector would spray more fuel than it supposed into the engine. due to broken rubber seal present inside the injector. and this would lead to an increase in fuel consumption when you notice that your car is consuming more fuel than it used to.

That's a sign that you should check the fuel injectors.

Also, it is important to note that when more fuel is sprayed into the combustion chamber, most of the fuel would be wasted after the required amount has been used for combustion.
7. inconsistent RPM. this is often caused by bad fuel injector spraying too much fuel into the engine cylinder would trigger a surge in the engine which would result in slower acceleration and fluctuating R PM.

You'd notice that the RPM gauge is never stable when the car is running with a constant load, fuel leaks.

If the bad fuel injector is spraying too much fuel, the excesses would get into different parts of the engine and leak out from any possible spot.

Also, the fuel injectors can crack due to several reasons and thus fuel can leak out from the cracked spots.

you'd notice this by seeing fuel leaks dropping from the engine bay.

Of course, this is dangerous and can cause an explosion.

If a fire is brought close to the place where the leaked fuel touched the ground floor, ▪ the fuel injector seal deteriorates over time and it is the major cause of fuel leaks when it relates to a bad injector,
9. fuel smell odor.

As you may guess this goes along with the leak.

If fuel is leaking out, you'd perceive the odor while driving, this is a safety hazard and if you drive a passenger car, your passengers won't be comfortable sitting inside a car with such a bad smell.

10 engines won't start at all. Yeah, a bad injector can make a car undrivable. How's that possible?

When the engine is not getting the appropriate amount of fuel it needs to function over time.

The engine components would start to fail and that can cause the ECM to stop the engine from starting up.

11. dirty exhaust emission. It is possible for dirty exhaust emissions to result from a faulty fuel injector.

An engine cycle ends at the exhaust stroke where dirty gasses are expelled into the atmosphere.

An insufficient or abundant fuel supply can be caused by a malfunctioning fuel injector in either case, combustion enhances the production of unwanted gasses.

The dirtier gasses produced; the more pollution produced
12. unstable engine.

The symptoms of a bad fuel injector may appear as unstable engine R PM.

You will know faulty combustion is the cause of any symptom if you dig deep enough.

Since each rotation of the drive shaft is powered by the engine cycle, the power of the output shaft fluctuates due to incomplete combustion.

13 Engine Backfire engine backfire are symptoms commonly associated with system fuel starvation or unburned fuel dump into the exhaust manifold system.

This can result into backfire, also known as pop sound, when the engine is starved of the right fuel quantity that it needs to keep the engine running smooth.

It creates hiccup or pop sound while attempting to function correctly.

14. engine runs lean, most often times when a check engine light popped up and you plugged your scanner to it, but you are getting a lean error code which can be reporting air fuel mixture ratio components such as oxygen sensor doesn't necessarily mean that the oxygen sensor is bad but problems like fogged injectors can create a high fuel restriction which will result into the engine running very much disproportionate on air than fuel.

How to fix a bad fuel injector. If the injector is broken or cracked, sadly, you can't fix it.

You'd have to replace it with a new one. Fuel injectors are not too costly to replace.

However, the replacement should be done by a professional or experienced auto technician to avoid tampering with other critical electrical components that make the engine work.

On. The other hand, if the injector is clogged or dirty, you can clean it out yourself following diy procedures.

Fuel injector replacement costs, you can buy a fuel injector cleaner package.

You typically find them for $10 minus $20 in most auto shops online and offline.

However, if you'd have a professional, do the cleaning expect to pay around $50.

When you confirm the fault is from a bad injector, you can either clean out the injector or replace it.

The average cost of replacing fuel injectors is between $300 and $500 depending on the car model and design labor costs can go up to $200 in some mechanic shops.

Hi there, I am doctor cool auto fix,
I once saw a video on YouTube where a guy was dismissing the notion of fiting alternator into electric cars to make it self charging.

It was baseless based on my assessments & critical analysis.

Logically I know a lot about the operating principles and applications of electricity & battery charging,

My views and logical reasoning of determining it possible or not is what I highlighted on the content below if you are curious about the possibility of such technology, you may want to watch this content

10 Of The Most Reliable Six-Cylinder Engines Ever Made

We've witnessed many incredibly six-cylinder engines over the years, and these are the most reliable of the lot.



Six-cylinder engines first powered pre-World War I aircraft long before they gained popularity in the automotive sphere. BMW, a manufacturer with a well-publicized love affair with inline-six engines, built some incredible war-and post-war time six-cylinder aviation engines, which later found their eternal home in the automobile. But BMW wasn't the first automaker to use six-cylinder engines in vehicles. Spyker introduced the 60-hp Racer in 1903 with a straight six power plant. After World War II, the first V6 engine debuted with the Lancia V6 featuring under the Lancia Aurelia's hood in 1950. So this engine type has a timeless heritage under its

10. Ford 300 Inline-Six – Ford F-Series Trucks

The ford 300 straight-six is easily one of the greatest engines ever built. It featured in the legendary Ford F-Series trucks for three decades and proved a trusted workhorse for nation builders, from farmers and construction workers to loggers. It came with a big 560lbs iron block that proved practically unkillable.The engine has seen plenty of abuse through its application in millions of farm pickups, tractors, wood chippers, irrigation pumps, etc.

9. Jeep 4.0 Inline-Six – Jeep Cherokee, Wrangler, Wagoneer.

Although Jeep engines are still pretty good, they aren't among the most dependable based on third-party reliability reviews. Still, Jeep vehicles have featured some solidly reliable motors in the past, including the Jeep 4.0 inline-six. Jeep built the 4.0 between 1986 and 2006, first by AMC and then by Chrysler after the 1987 takeover. It didn't put out much power, but its design was simple and provided longevity and reliability. It will keep running long after the rest of the Jeep has rusted away.





8. Jaguar XK6 Inline-Six– Jaguar D-Type, E-Type, XK120

Jaguar built the XK inline-six DOHC engine from 1942 to 1992, and it went on to earn reverence for powering iconic road cars and race cars. It underwent constant evolution and improvement through its 43-year run, coming in five displacements between 2.4 and 4.2 liters. Jaguar deployed the XK6 on some of the fastest cars in its day, including the Jaguar XK120, E-Type, and the Le Mans-winning D-Type.

The XK6 earns praise for its raw power, smooth delivery, and unmistakable soundtrack.

7. 12 Valve Cummins 6BT Inline-Six – Dodge Ram Trucks.

The turbocharged 12-valve Cummings 6BT engine is arguably the world's most famous diesel engine. The six-cylinder power plant first appeared in the 1989 Dodge Ram pickup truck and soon replaced monstrous V8s thanks to its ability to provide massive low-end torque and improve fuel consumption.

The engine gained a cult following thanks to its tremendous performance potential and bulletproof reliability.

6. Chrysler Slant Six Inline-Six – Chrysler Cars, Trucks, And Vans.

Chrysler's 170, 198, and 225 Slant Six series was arguably the most durable inline-six engine ever built. They built it between 1960 and 1983 with a deep-skirt block and tall-short pistons, which proved extremely reliable. Its slant nature earned it the popular moniker "leaning tower of power."

The Slant six remains one of the most rugged and reliable power plants that proved tough to kill, never stopped running or wore out, and rarely needed repairs.

5. Nissan RB26DETT - Nissan Skyline GT-R32

Nissan

At the height of the JDM car craze of the late 80s, Nissan produced the RB26DETT straight six, which proved to be one of the most solid power mills out there. It came with 276 hp stock in the early models but can take high abuse levels. It forms a sturdy modification foundation, and many custom examples produce over 1000 ponies. This family of engines powered iconic Skyline cars from the R32 to the R34 GT-Rs.



Many consider the twin turbo RB26DETT an engineering marvel built for high performance. It has proven incredibly durable with good maintenance.


4. 3M Inline-Six - Toyota 2000GT

The Toyota M family included cast-iron block engines with aluminum cylinder heads built from the 1960s to the 1990s. It came in four-cylinder, six-cylinder, and eight-cylinder iterations that underwent several evolutions before Toyota rested the series. The 3M naturally inline-six was a special engine built from 1967 to 1971 for the legendary supercar, the Toyota 2000GT. Yamaha took the original M's block and built custom aluminum heads with a hemispherical shape and 79o valves.

Today the 2000GT is one of the most valuable and iconic Japanese cars ever, thanks partly to the durable 3M engine under the hood. It instantly proved its sturdiness when it set thirteen FIA records for endurance and speed after undergoing a 72-hour test at the Yatabe proving ground.

3. Honda J35 V6 – Honda Accord, Odyssey & Ridgeline

It powers everything from the sporty Honda Accord coupes to the Ridgeline pickups and Odyssey minivans.

The SOHC J35 V6 offers silky smooth power delivery with quick revs and notable VTEC changeovers. Also, it comes with bulletproof reliability, making it one of the greatest V6 engines, which is why it has been going strong since 1996.

2. Honda C30A/C32B V6 – Honda/Acura NSX

The C-Series is yet another notably reliable engine from Honda. It was the brand's first production V6, built in various iterations between 1985 and 2005. The C30A and C32B were the most complex and costly variants, so Honda reserved them for the Honda and Acura NSX sports cars.

1. 2JZ-GTE Inline-Six – Toyota Supra

Toyota has built some incredible, including the high-revving Lexus LFA's V10, but their 2JZ-GTE inline-six engine found on the A80 Supra is among the most desirable. For over twenty years, the 2JZ proved nearly indestructible. Toyota built it for enthusiasts, making it a legendary power plant in the tuner community.

Politics / Start & died by mrcoolautofix(m): 3:30pm On Jan 25, 2023
Cars are a fascinating and cutting-edge technology. 

They are commonplace now, but cars are an engineering feat that has transformed the way we travel. 
Understanding the process of manufacturing a car from design to launch will enable you to have a new appreciation for automobile design and function.

Have you ever wondered what the process of manufacturing a car looks like? 

From design to launch, it typically takes around two to five years to make a car from start to finish. This long timeline is to ensure the car is in sound condition for public use as well as to develop original designs that will spark interest within a large market. 
Car manufacturers have had the assembly process down pat since Henry Ford’s innovation on the assembly line. However, design and material use have become more intricate and complex as technology develops and demand changes. 
Each car manufacturer has its own process, but NRTC Automation has outlined the standards of making a car, from gathering raw materials to displaying the car on the sales floor. Read more about the car production process below! 

Step-by-Step Process of Manufacturing a Car 

RAW MATERIALS 

Raw materials must be compiled to transform the car from an idea to a reality. Many car manufacturers are looking for more sustainable, as well as lightweight and cost-effective, materials for their cars to keep up with the demand for greener products. 

DESIGN & ENGINEERING 

Automobile design must respond to the public’s needs and desires for a car. Once the design is drafted, it’ll go through many revisions to perfect it. 
The interior and exterior must be fashioned so that it is attractive to potential buyers while also including innovative technologies that make the car newsworthy and competitive to other brands. 
Small models will be made in 2D and 3D forms to test the car’s design. Engineers will test for aerodynamics, safety, hot and cold weather, fuel economy, electrical functionality, cost analysis, and more.  
Once the design and engineering specs have been approved, then the manufacturing process can begin. 

MANUFACTURING 

The sheet metal parts for the bodywork are created and stamped by robots. These parts form side frames, doors, hoods, and roofs, which are later added onto the main frame of the car. 
Once the frame is created and the parts are ready to be assembled, the car will be loaded onto a production line. 
The car will travel along a moving assembly line in a factory as robots and people work on them. Manufacturing plant workers will attach parts to the car and may work alongside robots for certain tasks. Robotic work cells will work alone to weld, solder, screw, and glue parts onto the car. 
Once the parts of the body are manufactured onto the car, it will undergo detailing. This includes cleaning, layering chemical formulas for protection against corrosion and scratches, and painting. 
Finally, the engine, transmission, axles, and exhaust systems are installed into the car and the tires are furnished so the car can stand on its own. 

TESTING & QA 

Now that the car is ready to drive, it will be tested for quality assurance and safety.  

The vehicle is checked for any imperfections or inconsistencies in the interior and exterior design.  

The car will run through a series of tests similar to those given at a DMV: the engine is started and stopped several times, the steering alignment is adjusted, the headlights are checked for brightness and reach, brakes are tested for safety, and more. 

Then, the car will be tested in heavy water pressure to find leaks. 

The car’s programming will be tested, and the electrical units will be checked to ensure safety and accessibility. 

Finally, crash testing will be executed to observe how the car handles impacts, and to test airbag and seat belt performance. 

If the car requires no further tweaks in design and production for safety, then the car can be presented to the market. 

LAUNCH 

After performing market research, developing a marketing theme, and defining the price of the car, the car will be produced for car dealerships and private dealers to sell to the public.
Politics / Nigeria Reached Breaking Point by mrcoolautofix(m): 2:52pm On Jan 25, 2023
in 2022, Nigeria reached it breaking point,
200 millions citizens of Nigeria has suffered immensely from the terror of bad leadership that plagues Nigerian endlessly, this gravity of the hardships encountered by Nigerians can only be compared to the European enslavement of Africans, were the simple devastating tactics used by Europeans known as divide and rule system, is well understood & implemented by Nigerian politicians, this tactics give birth to the most inhumane havoc & turbulence that nothing good will come of it except, exploitations, loot & economic depletion, with thousands of graduates outbursting yearly, parent investing heavily on the of their wards education, most universities are on strike due to poor payment schemes designated to the college universities lecturers that isn't private, the Nigerian sanators are so paid above any payment ever known to mankind, yet Nigerian minimum wage set by the Nigerian legislatures is so poor & little to for the sustainability of work force below the lowest class, this political turture & horror is like no other in any part of a nation with so much abundant of mineral & human resources, there was no plan to curb the massive aggression of graduates rolling out of college every year, at the mark of this enigmatic educational system, Nigerian youth developed the slogan, last last school is a scam, considering the amounts of time & financial imput into Nigerian education system, and the output, in reference to entrepreneurship system of business that is commonly known & practiced within the easten region, truly Nigeria school system is a scam, jamb for instance that it cetificates expired every year if the applicant have no financial tap root to fund his or her education, all his effort becomes invane, the jamp registration fee is gaining muscle every year, this is one among many scam in Nigeria education system, aside the fact that, viability of Nigerian education system is not feasible to the growth of Nigerian economy is a mega scam, Nigerian political elites are aware of this false education system that doesn't fuel Nigerian economic growth, thats why 95% of Nigerian leaders choose to send their children studies overseas, even as Nigerian employment rate is growing at alarming levels does not affect the ruling class, once their children are done with studies overseas, there is employment opportunities awaiting their arrival, that's why Nigerian election is often perceived as a do or die affairs among the top elites who emerges of candidates in different respective positions.

as the room for micro & large scale industrialization was cut off by the propaganda of unstable power supply by bad leadership, unemployment rate exploded aggressively, it terror & horrors sparked massive aggression demonstrated in disguise of banditry, terrorism & agitation to secede, in the context of it torture of hunger & starvation of necessity that life should bring, Nigeria hits it braking point & yet it doesn't ring bell in the ears of Nigerian leaders to foresee the impending outbreak of war between Nigerian youth's & political stake holders that is looming like horicane.

massive looting of pulblic funds in Buhari administration & borrowing of funds breakes a record in Nigerian history, including naira devaluation, hike in fuel price, electricity tarrif, inflation, & poverty rate is skyrocketing super fast, all reached the peaked hight it has never getting 50% to before, as politicians seized from implimenting credible steps that will rejuvenate Nigerian economy to looting pulblic funds, borrowing billions of dollars which heighten Nigeria international debt like never before, placed Nigeria under a siege of collapse, insecurity rate plummeting as bandits constantly cashing out by adopting anyone they can get their hands on, demanding outrageous sum to release the adopted,
Buhari administration negotiating with these bandits & paying the sum demanded fuels the bandits ego to advance futher, growing exponentially, seemingly the Nigerian who perpetuated this act of banditry, is due to bad governance of Buhari administrations responding to thier ransom demands, sees this act of banditry as a very lucrative business that pays a staggering sum, to buy more weapons & recruits more, who are willing to join thier movin train.
while the time ticks torks, these bandits advanced even futher, threatens to adopt Buhari the president of Nigerian, after attacking the military base, killing handfull of guards bridgades in Abuja federal capital of Nigeria,

since Buhari administration, abuja Kaduna high way that was safe before now has turned into a banditry den & hostile territory for kidnappers, makes traveling unsave either by road, train or by air,

how did we get here is the great question, to understand this better, lets rewind the clock back 8 years ago,
when Nigerian had a fresh air from a man called goodluck ebele Jonathan, just as his name implied changed the life of Nigerian, Nigerian living standards at that time was remarkably up shining like a star, it might not be comparable to that of Libyan citizens at the time of Mauma Gaddafi, before Barack Obama administration paralyzed Mauma Gaddafi military power, making him vulnerable of being captured by rebels & slaughtered, using nato, seems like a well planned & implemented strategy, if Obama administration have problems with Mauma Gaddafi & other African countries leaders staying four decades in power while turning a blind eye on queen Elizabeth of England, is definitely a plot against African uprisings.

Nigerians with their ignorant didn't recognize the golden spoon which goodluck Jonathan administration, put brain & economics together to serve on the table,
Goodluck Jonathan tenor suffered lots of brutal act of terrorism from boko haram that claimed lives of innocents citizens blown to bit on sunday morning in niger state, a fraction among many grains of sand of bombing attacks, including the bring back our girls staged propaganda to unseat the then seating president of Nigerian Goodluck Jonathan, which shows the foot print of Barack Obama administration involvement into Nigerian politics to unseat the seating president, using michell his wife, international celebrities & any cockroach they could mainipulate to facilitate their political atrocities,

Nigerian citizens becloudedness wouldn't let them see clearly were the dance step is leading them like a lamb to the slaughter & butcher path, a state of destruction which comes highest naira devaluation ever recorded in history of Nigeria, out of which recession, inflation & hardships, insecurity like of which that has never been seeing before, emerge from a devil dance with Barack Obama admistration,
barack Obama is seemingly elected to target & shoot down any African country that is enterprising & soaring up to upgrading it economic growth & lifestyles, with one devil dance with Obama administration, such nation sunshine turns dark without hesitation.

dollar exchange rate to naira was 150 naira per dollar when Goodluck Jonathan was in power, the motor spirit cost per pump was 87 naira per liter, at the context & talk of fuel subsidization, and cost of fuel was raised to 97 naira per liter, quickly without hesitation, adam oshomole who was then Nigerian labour congress president mounted a revolt against the increase in cost of motor spirit cost per pump & was reversed back to 87 naira until goodluck administration ended, it's shocking this cost change from 87 to 175 & Nigerian labor congress never put the same energy as they deed during the goodluck Jonathan administration,

in 2015 Apc got Nigerian coined with the word change, without proper investigation of the type of change they ignorantly dancing into, unknown to them the change they sorted for was million miles away from getting close to their anticipated change, it was a change from good to worse, a reset back into 8 years of carnage & stone age.

as death threats from different conners locks like a missile against the seating president goodluck Jonathan, from White House & other unnamed sources, the 2015 election could be anything but free, credibility or fairness are ghost in the menu,
the pressure from Barack Obama office to goodluck Jonathan intensified the fear in the heart of president Goodluck Jonathan, in such a terrifying & overwhelming situation, he quickly loose grip of power, allowing peoples votes casted for his continuation get trampled upon, by congratulating the opposition presidential candidates even before the electoral result was aired, issueing a public statement that reads, my political ambition doesn't worth any bloodshed of Nigerian citizens, this statement from goodluck Jonathan was made prior to General Buhari threats of war if he looses the election, will plunge the monkeys & baboon in blood

unknown to goodluck Jonathan, the stampede on the Nigerian citizens vote casted for his continuation, will result into even worse state that involved loss of hope life and property & prosperity, in this state comes horrific ressesion, banditry, worse insecurity & biafran agitation for secession due to the hopelessness rout Nigeria is futureless heading, like a titanic after a kiss with the iceberg,

as fulani headsmen invades homes of innocent civilians, massacred communities of hundreds, this terrorist under the disguise of fulani headsmen, burnt down hundreds of homes, destroying life properties & farmlands, at this point, loud outcry of pains and anguish, echos across the vast land of Nigeria,
Buhari administration put little to no strict counter measures to curb the high insurgency & attacks carried out by the fulani heardsmem, instead declared operation python dance & crocodile smile operation through the army chief by name buratay, against the nigerian easten region unarmed protesters called IPOB, which out of bad governmenance & torment of hardship, risk to embarks on the course of sessesion through the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu, as no help from the so called united nation of European world in my book, sends panics waves across the other part of Nigeria, living in fear of new terror called fulani headsmen,
as poverty toll continues to rev it engine to full throttle, hunger turns laws abiding citizens into criminals of different shades in attempts to survive the most horrifying & terrifying recession ever recorded in the history of Nigeria,

Buhari administration put more than 200 millions lives of Nigerian citizens into a horrific terror of a roller coaster they never imagined possible,
like no other, as hope seems very far from nigerian Youths grasp, the light & vision to move futher deemed in tear drops,
hope for a fair life now resides outside the borders of Nigeria to foreign nations,

The west & European overseas watching the terror unleashed on Nigerian Citizen by it bad & corrupt leader, instead of contributing their help to soften the burdens on Nigerian citizen, they fastened the doors of their boders, at this desperate times, Nigeria citizens become completely vulnerable to internet fraud stars, as they made their way through loop holes created by the nigerian renegade politicians, internet fraud dance it way into vast heart of vulnerable Nigerians, scavenging many of their sweats & futunes, the white light turned dark, wrecking more havoc, M.M.M, Aliance global network, green world, GNLD, Golden circles are fractions among many scams brands who troll into Nigerian citizens internet space with enticing promises, which Nigerians fell for loosing billions of it fortune, in attempt to escape the torture of hunger & recession brought upon them, at this juncture, the hunted become a hunter, this is the rebirth of Nigerian internet fraud stars a.k.a yahoo boys,

yahoo boys is a code name for scammers who swindle westen nation through email compromise, yahoo boys has never been as outbursting, famous & growing at alarming rate until Buhari administration took over the power & flop Nigeria economy, making life a living hell for over 200 million Nigerian youths, if the promised made by Buhari during his campaign of making one naira equal to one dollars, fuel pump price 50 naira per liter, as much as diversification of Nigerian economy, was quarterly implemented, Nigerian cyber criminal will not come into existence in the first place, the staggering forex exchange rate of $1 is equal to 600 naira makes foreign currency so valuable & target to be stollen through internet fraud, fuel pump per liter that was 87 at the time of goodluck Jonathan increased futher to 165,
it's disappointing & disheartening to believe that Nigeria the highest crude oil producer among OPEC have no fuel for it usage, that it scarcity & increament in cost per pump against the campaign speech blows cost of comodity to inflation four times it original cost. Nigerian national petroleum corporation & western nation shell, will have a better answer as why Nigerian refineries faces depletion and other corrupt practices sucking life out of Nigerians.

Each time the nigerian motor spirit cost added a bar, local commodity cost automatically increased aggressively fueling the flight of poverty lack & criminality, as fuel scarcity futher pushed life sustainability means downwards, throttling hardship rate, many businesses began to fold as investors cut their loss, take their profits heading to the exit, forex exchange rate makes matter worse, by each pip the doller gained against naira, comes with it, hardships, lacks, & hunger, Chiseled it way into Nigerians in full scale, increasing local product cost by 200%,

over 200 million life of Nigerian citizens who don't belongs to ruling table, have no hope of tomorrow, no future, and life comes crashing,
with unpatriotic & unrepentant politicians who's sweeping words taste sweeter than sugar & honey combined, different lies told every four years, with same bad governance strategy, made life a living hell for the great elephant of Africa,
the abandonment of the mega factories in Nigeria such as the steel, textile, rubber industry, community schools, heath sector petrol refineries, the dilapidated power sector by Nigerian leaders in preferences of asians, Europeans & American is definitely a cruel plan to undevelop Nigerian human resources futher, out of which comes living below standard & creates more room for brain draining by European imperialist,

as the 2023 Nigeria general election emerges, comes a refreshing opportunity to make amend of the long chains and shackles of mental, political & cannibalistic system of governance, to reinvent, restructure & rebrand Nigeria for the emencipation of Nigerian youths from political Catholitic atrocities that has shameless shartered the hopes & swindle the future of vast Nigerian youths majority,

most brave & intelligent Nigerian Youths hands now are on desk to revise the horrific depleting state of Nigeria to an enterprising fundamental & thriving nation through the labour party presidential aspirant Peter Obi, who possesses exceptional & astronomical records & qualities of good leadership by example, whom past verifyable records, has set a headline, through which Nigerian Youths can confide in his keen interests in innovation & youths development as the only way to make bring Nigerian out of the hands of old ruined who have no better plans other than plunging into pit of hell,

2023 general elections another challenge as those who have benefited graciously from the blood socking carnivorous political plagues, are still blinded by religion & tribal sentiments to overthrow their logical morality into choosing to vote for political party and aspirant whom death trap plans, lie so obviously that even the blind will never fall for,

while logical thinking creative minded vibrant usefull youths of Nigerian who have eyes of an eagle, can read the handwriting of death & doom locking, if by mistake voted one of the crocodiles into power, the worst political havoc & atrocity will set a new record of national death roll, that it finales will plunge Nigeria into war, or bring death by hunger poverty & by starvation into wooping 200 millions of Nigerians,
500,000 Nigerians that was recently anounced in 2022 by Singapore government on death roll, which was granted a pardon by the plea of 2023 Nigerian presidential aspirant Peter Obi is just a tip on the iceberg, as much as dubai massive deportations of Nigerian citizens & their brothers,

although that mistake will not seem to happen as you could see how Furious the agonizing hard working & creative Nigerian Youths whom out of the capitalist divide and rule system political atrocities has caused more divisiveness by their religion, ethnicity & political party, break record of voters registration execise, dropped aside political rivals aside, to be united by one common problems that plagues the vast majority of nigerian population, ready to make a bold statement that will forever change the future of not only Nigerian but Africa,
the 3 most prominent presidential candidates emerges to contest as the presidential aspirants of Nigeria, Nigerian youths this time, has learned it lessons by laying aside political differences, to vote for credibility, that can be drafted from contestant past records & intergrity, cos any mistake of letting the wrong politician win 2023 presidential elections, death toll will result into national mass burial. as I sat down to pen down this content from the aboundant of my inc, is to remind & refresh Nigerian youths of their undivided unity against police brutality in 2020 that yield a results that it signature still live fear in the heart of the politicians, that is sparked up from Twitter using a simple #endsars, this time, we can even do better in 2023 election, don't forget the 109 billion naira stolen by the account general, don't forget the case of magu efcc financial fraud case that died don't forget thousands of Nigerian youths arrested as suspects of internet fraud thats locked behind bars to rot in jail, & no single political stakeholder looting billions that never visit police cells.

I believe by the time you are watching or hearing this you have already acquired your P.V.C, the change we seek to obtain in Nigeria come 2023, has never been achieved before, but I trust in our unity as youths, fathers and mothers, who cheerish the future & welfare of their children, this decision begins with you and I being Obedient, there is a lot to be done, but our standing strong, together regardless of the tribe, religion or political party, to manifest as the leaders of tomorrow, begins with you and I voting for someone who shares our pains & aspirations, not by cheap talks, someone who absorb our criticism to amend his steps, someone who has laid vast examples as masterpiece, someone who's footprints is our master plan to scrutinize any political aspirant to determine his or her credibility & intergrity, not one who will promise to build bridges where there is no river, but one that have humanitarian attributes & a pricking conscience, who have passion to serve not to loot public funds to enriched his 20th generation, while starving the vast millions, not one with iron fist, one who's selfish political ambition is fraction compared to the interest of making Nigeria a better and greater nation, safe for economic development & growth, who is transparent, probity and accountability, Peter Obi & Yusuf Datti from my assessments would make the most remarkable change in Nigeria history we vastly share.
I am Obidient thanks for watching, thanks Nigerians youths for taking a stand, thanks to Obidient REVOLUTION movements. vote Obidient for greater good of Nigeria. God bless the new Nigeria, may the old Nigeria die by strangulation in hands of Nigerian youths & rest in pieces.
Car Talk / Before you go by mrcoolautofix(m): 2:28pm On Jan 25, 2023
Before criticizing Nigerian youths rise to internet fraud.

Going to the root cause & addressing it,
will do you more favour. save your energy & resources, ensure equity & justice than building correction facility.

So therefore, I advice you save your energy from witch hunting either as a racist or tribalistic personified or perhaps evil influenced personality.

Nigerian youths have been bleeding economically, mentally, physically & morally, from political havoc & torture like non ever in the history of mankind.

Take this like a live horror movies that have beginning but the ending remains a mystery & so terrifying.

The options left for most vibrant Nigerian youths who's moral standards of reasoning has been offset out of order.

Due to hunger, poverty & lack of basic necessity that makes life worth living & what is left is rage.

The difference in ethnicity & language coupled with differences in religion, detonated with politics, makes life a living hell.

Thier ducation system is bad & filled with conjectures & theories that fuels not their aspirations or economic growth.

If should be taken in context, abolish & reinstatment will be the solution to reliable health care self & good policy that benefits the non ruling class,

This is the genesys & birth of brain draining & scam an criminality.

If quater of this inhumane political atrocity is to replicate in any western nation will provoke a crisis that will plunge such nations into desert.

Seemingly those who planned & built this time bomb are witnessing it cracks.

As for Nigerian youths, exploring any exit route to escape both poverty & inhumane made natural disaster is the state of their hearts.

Thousands have died trying to escape through porous land borders, got eating by wild animals.

some died in the hot desert of Africa. while thousands who hide inside the container vessel heading back to Europe, got fed to sharks in the Atlantic ocean.

While others get tossed into the sea to swim forever.

If there is a term more deadly than worse is available, perhaps that would best describe Nigeria youths horror.

In my analogy, worse is unfit & understatement to qualify what Nigeria youths goes through in Nigeria.

As it stands only the strong lives, and those who can't withstand this death trap that is worse than natural turbulence.

Thier only option is to flee for thier life, or life below $5 per day,

There are lots of natural & human resources which when managed by the leaders, will skyrocket Nigeria economy but it was vastly abandoned to rot.

As the taste for hydrocarbons danced it way across the lips & belly of the elites and stake holders, every other resources was left.

Nigeria became a dumping ground,
for used items such as cars, laptops, smartphones & home appliances.

Even worse as Nigerian vast majority couldn't afford cost acquiring brand cars due to poor payment & earnings structure which it minimum wage is less than $50 per month at the time of this video.

90% of European salvaged yards location became Nigeria.


The good roads are only based on tribal sentiment created by British, no portable drinking water, no quality education system, unemployment hit the roof in massive scale.

The slogans " if you can't beat them, join them was born "

From my analytical assessments of the massislve outburst & rise of Nigeria fraudster officially started offline, driven by the same factor, before advancing further into internet space.

The Russian cyber attack & scam that danced it way into vast heart of Nigerians by name MMM shouldn't be forgotten quickly.

When the operating system of a computer crash, every software installed in that system will be deformed and lost.

That's exactly what happened an a fraction among many, problem with Nigerian youths, was a consequences of a failed state due to multiple failed leadership.

This corrupt practice is constantly evolving due to fact that the politician & stake holder's who perpetuated this act are rarher celebrated & not jailed or crucified.

By this offset order, Nigerian youth automatically weaponizes any internet capable device, using internet service as the fuel, while hunger, starvation & poverty is the driving force & inspiration to keep pushing to survive the horror.

These depleted Nigerian economy due to bad governance created astronomical double standard, which it feels, is enough to burst the pipeline.

As gives financial power to the Victor's who either by hook or crook gain political power to live luxuriously, while living the vanquished, empty, jobless, futureless & hopeless.

Each slice of failure in Nigeria economy resource management, create more room for hunger & criminality.

Which most Nigerian leaders are the flag bearer of such inhumanity & failed woefully to address on several counts.

instead choose to hide under the umbrella of fighting corruption, while the vast majority of Nigerian lavish in hardcore poverty.

Yes it's easier for the economic financial crime commission EFCC to lock behind bars poor citizens who are struggling to earns meet.

Rather than apprehending stakeholders who are constantly looting Nigeria treasury into bankruptcy, in billions of dollars & naira stock piling in foreign nations banks.

In summary, there will be no need trying to scam a cent from a western nations citizens, if the value of Nigerian currency is pairing head to head with pounds, euro or US dollars in equal terms.

Not having this astronomical difference which makes it not only valued by Nigerian but a high targeted for quick rich.

let me end this summary by saying, the difference between United start of America & Nigeria is leaders & governments policy as much as rule of law.

leaders in USA loots another nations to develop itself, while in Nigeria, their leaders loots Nigerian treasuries to develop other nations while starving their citizens.

that's why each year, Nigeria is heading backwards into stone age, while in USA it's innovating & soaring up high with stability in thier economy, with near to zero or insignificant inflation.

lastly, in all this, Nigeria which have the major population in Africa is defenceless.

final word, Nigerian youths have to stand up on their feet come 2023 general election.

Put tribal & religious sentiments aside to vote competence that is based on verifiable past records that is positive & selflessness, not selfishness.

Be united by the common problems & challenges that each of them faces collectively & vote someone who have their core interests at heart.

I believe this will be the first & right step to addressing instability in power supply, poor living standards, bad economic growth, insecurity & poor currency purchasing power.

Futher which will tackle unemployment, reduce cost of governance & dependence, & revert from consumption state into a production state.

implement policies that will cater for common man.

& not to follow politicians based on their sweet words & empty promises that holds no vision or positive mission to serve but to rule with iron fist.

Thanks for your time

Write 9 minutes long article explaining why Nigerian youths have to rise & take power from politicians in 2023 general election & save their future generations

Nigerian youths have a crucial role to play in the 2023 general election. They must rise and take power from politicians in order to save their future generations.

One of the main reasons for this is that the current political class in Nigeria has failed to deliver on their promises to the people. Despite being in power for decades, Nigeria still ranks as one of the poorest countries in the world, with high levels of unemployment, poverty, and inequality. The political elite have also been accused of widespread corruption, with billions of dollars meant for public services being siphoned off into personal bank accounts.

The youth of Nigeria, on the other hand, represent the future of the country. They are well-educated, ambitious and eager to bring about change. They are also more in tune with the needs of their communities and are less likely to be caught up in the corruption and patronage that plagues Nigerian politics.

Another reason why the youth must rise and take power is that they are disproportionately affected by the issues facing Nigeria today. High youth unemployment and poverty, lack of access to quality education and healthcare, and a lack of opportunities for social and economic advancement are all issues that disproportionately affect the young.

Furthermore, if the youth do not take power, the same old politicians will continue to dominate the political scene, and the same old problems will continue to plague Nigeria. Only by bringing in new, young leaders can real change be achieved.

In order to achieve this, the youth must be organized, and they must be willing to put in the hard work required to win elections. They must also be willing to put aside their personal interests and work together for the good of the country.

In conclusion, the future of Nigeria depends on the actions of its youth. They must rise and take power from the current political class in order to save their future generations. It's time for a change, it's time for the youth to take the reins and lead Nigeria to a better future.
In order to avoid these dangers, the youth must be well-informed and make their decisions based on a clear understanding of the candidates and their policies. They must also be willing to hold their elected officials accountable and to demand that they deliver on their promises. Only by being active and engaged citizens can the youth ensure that they are not left at the mercy of a political class that has failed them in the past.

What must Nigerian youths do to ensure their right choice of presidential candidate

In order to ensure that they make the right choice of presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, Nigerian youths must take several steps.

First, they must be informed and educated about the candidates and their policies. This means researching the candidates, reading their platforms, and attending rallies and debates to hear them speak. They should also pay attention to what the candidates have done in the past, and compare their records with their promises.

Second, they should seek out and pay attention to credible, non-partisan sources of information and analysis. This could be from independent organizations, media or think-tanks that provide unbiased information and analysis on the candidates, their policies and the state of the country.

Third, they should engage in discussions and debates with their peers, family and community members to get multiple perspectives on the candidates and their policies. This will help them to make a more informed decision and also help them to articulate their own views better.

Fourth, they should be willing to hold their elected officials accountable after the elections. This means demanding that the candidates deliver on their promises and holding them to account if they fail to do so.

Finally, they should be willing to participate in the electoral process, whether it's by registering to vote, getting a voter's card, or actually going to the polls on election day.

By following these steps, the Nigerian youths can increase the chances that they will make the right choice of presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, and ensure that their voices are heard in the political process.

Write an essay why if alternator is fitted in electric cars, it will charge the EV on go and would save drivers thousands of dollars in energy
Save & Submit
Cancel

1 / 2

An alternator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. In an electric vehicle (EV), an alternator can be used to charge the battery while the car is in motion, rather than relying solely on charging the battery while the car is parked. This feature, known as regenerative braking, can save EV drivers thousands of dollars in energy costs over the life of the vehicle.

Regenerative braking works by capturing the energy that is normally lost during the braking process and using it to charge the battery. When a driver applies the brakes, the alternator converts the mechanical energy of the moving vehicle into electrical energy, which is then stored in the battery. This process is known as "regeneration" because it regenerates energy that would otherwise be lost.

The benefits of regenerative braking are twofold. First, it allows EV drivers to extend the range of their vehicle by capturing energy that would otherwise be wasted. This can be particularly useful for drivers who frequently travel long distances, as it allows them to go further on a single charge. Second, regenerative braking can significantly reduce the cost of operating an EV. By capturing energy that would otherwise be wasted, regenerative braking reduces the need to charge the battery as often, which can save money on electricity costs.

Additionally, the alternator fitted in electric cars also provides a way of extending the life of the vehicle's battery by keeping it charged and maintaining its condition. This ultimately reduces the cost of battery replacement and maintenance.

In conclusion, the alternator fitted in electric cars is a key component that can save EV drivers thousands of dollars in energy costs over the life of the vehicle. By capturing energy that would otherwise be wasted during braking and using it to charge the battery, regenerative braking can extend the range of the vehicle and reduce the cost of operating an EV. It also ensures the longevity of the battery by keeping it in good condition and reducing the cost of replacement. Therefore, the fitting of alternator in electric cars is highly recommended.

Yes VW do have some problems that can be very frustrating and people like u who should be helping them solve dis problem trick them into selling so u can keep Ur collection growing. With time d demand for VW will reduce, importers will stop bringing parts then the market dies in Nigeria.

You call it trick, Well if people refuse to let professional like me solve their car problems, ofcourse I will be called upon to purchase it when they are frustrated after giving it to road side mechanics to mess it up. I teach people how to fix car problems for free, but I can't force people to learn or bring their car to me for repairs, by the way, if you see any vw passat cc or jetta newer models about getting chopped or sold dirt cheap, call me

Car Talk / 10 Reasons Why Your Car Takes More Fuel & Fix by mrcoolautofix(m): 12:18pm On Jan 23, 2023
Ok guys, so long as your car is gasoline powered, be it natural aspirated engine or turbocharged, all you need to know is right here,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-Auh-npXjI&feature=youtu.be

now let’s turn to PHEVs.

1. Battery Problems
Every battery has a predetermined lifespan, whether it may be of a device or a vehicle.

Most hybrid vehicles come with an 8-year battery warranty, but there’s a catch.


Hybrid vehicles are designed for regular use. Driving them once a week would affect their battery.

Most hybrid vehicle users live in urban areas.

Urban areas are jam-packed with traffic on a regular basis, so people often prefer using public transportation. Hence, maintaining the battery of a hybrid vehicle without putting it into daily use will ultimately result in battery problems before the vehicle even completes its warranty.


As you might know, hybrid vehicles come with two powering systems, meaning the battery installed in a hybrid vehicle would be relatively smaller than that of an EV.

Many hybrid owners tend to use the electrical component of the vehicle rather than its internal combustion engine due to high fuel prices.

That puts an excessive load on the hybrid’s battery and makes it wear out easily.

In conclusion, the battery life of hybrid vehicles is less than that of electric vehicles.

As a hybrid owner, you’d have to replace the battery often. Electrical vehicles and hybrids may have recently been ruling the market, but that doesn’t make their components any less expensive.


2. Exhaust System and Emissions
While hybrids offer double powering systems, they are not exactly the cleanest vehicles in terms of emissions.

Due to the internal combustion engine component in hybrids, people a decade from now would prefer cleaner options such as EVs or PHEVs (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles) that have zero emissions.

Also, EVAP (Evaporation Emissions Control) system failure is one of the biggest problems in hybrid vehicles.

Similar to gasoline-powered vehicles, after the hybrid is driven a couple of miles, the gas fumes stored in the canister are leaked due to worn-out valves impacting the fuel efficiency of the vehicle.

Hybrid vehicles are equipped with numerous systems to limit their carbon footprint.

But the EVAP system failure affects the efficiency of the vehicle and increases its emissions.

So you really have to ask yourself, if you’re looking for a zero-emissions vehicle, are hybrids really the better option?


3. Faulty Oxygen Sensors
As compared to gasoline-powered vehicles, hybrids are a relatively better option for good fuel economy.

But what if the main component of fuel efficiency, the oxygen sensor, is faulty?

Many potential buyers are reluctant to purchase hybrid vehicles due to the prospect of the oxygen sensor failing.

An O2 sensor malfunction really defeats the purpose of owning a hybrid.

Many times, the exhaust system failure in the hybrid impacts the O2 sensor because the sensor can only work under an optimum temperature.


This usually happens when the driver uses the electrical driving system of the hybrid.

Problems with the combustion process impact the hybrid vehicle’s mileage. ICE vehicles have the same problem, but in hybrids, this issue surfaces early and more frequently.

4. Poor Highway Fuel Efficiency


If you’re comparing the fuel efficiency of a hybrid and an ICE vehicle, then owning a hybrid may sound like the better option.

But in terms of highway fuel efficiency, hybrids don’t perform as well as gasoline-powered vehicles.

If you plan on driving at a higher speed for longer intervals, hybrids are not the vehicle to go for.

The reason behind that is, hybrid vehicles recharge their electric motors when being driven on internal combustion engines, giving you a relatively lower mileage than that of a gas-powered vehicle.

Hybrid vehicles perform better in city areas than on highways due to their low emissions design. That is why, on highways, their fuel efficiency matches that of a gasoline-powered vehicle.

Hence, if you live in areas where you have to do a lot of regular highway driving, diesel-powered vehicles will be the better option.

5. Catalytic Converter Issues
In standard combustion vehicles, catalytic converters serve the purpose of reducing toxic emissions from the exhaust system.


Since hybrids have an internal combustion engine as well, they also have catalytic converters.

But are they just as functional as catalytic converters in gas-powered vehicles?

Unfortunately, multiple users report that the catalytic converters in hybrids are more prone to failure and the repair or replacement costs are nowhere near to that of standard vehicles, but double!

The main reason behind catalytic converter failure is the absence of the petrol engine which allows the converter to cool before it heats up again.

If a hybrid vehicle does not have low fuel consumption and has emissions similar to that of a gas-powered vehicle, is it really worth the money?


6. Powertrain Maintenance Costs


Advanced technology does not mean hybrids aren’t prone to malfunction.

Hybrids have a dual powertrain, which means they have combined problems of EVs and combustion vehicles.

In addition, two motors mean just as many maintenance costs.

Hybrids might offer you the flexibility of switching between driving modes as per your needs, but when it comes to routine maintenance, hybrids are more expensive than electric vehicles and ICE vehicles.

As mentioned earlier, hybrids have complex systems which can sometimes interfere with their capability or properly utilize either of the powertrains. Moreover, only driving on one motor severely impacts the other system that’s kept idle and the vehicle’s efficiency.

7. They Are Expensive
Comparing the initial costs of hybrids to their equivalents really helps you build a perspective, because hybrids cost way more than conventional vehicles.

The low emissions technology found in hybrids is the reason behind the high initial costs. If you’re thinking that the extra costs are recouped by the money you save, then that’s not the case.


For instance, a Ford Fusion hybrid costs around $27,555, whereas its conventional version costs $22,840.

If you consider the malfunctions hybrids are prone to, it really contradicts the objective of preferring hybrids or ICE vehicles.

Potential buyers argue whether the gas savings that result from purchasing a hybrid vehicle would ever make up for its initial cost.

If you keep the maintenance costs of hybrids in view, it won’t happen anytime soon.

If you consider the high gas prices, hybrid vehicles seem like the solution.

But since automakers around the world are planning to switch to electric vehicles in a decade or so, hybrids don’t seem like a profitable investment in the long run.

8. Range Is An Issue
We already know that hybrid vehicles underperform on highways, but what about the range? Most of the hybrids in the market offer a certain amount of range before they need a recharge.


If you consider the number of available charging stations in your area, does owning a hybrid still seem like a good option?

Many countries are creating policies regarding charging stations to promote the use of electric vehicles for environmental purposes.

Even now, in the U.S, many shopping malls, supermarkets, and public areas have charging stations, but are they installed in enough areas within the range of hybrids?

For instance, a Toyota Prius Hybrid can drive about 500 miles on a full recharge.

This means it might be good for covering short distances, but you can’t take hybrids on longer journeys. Besides, there are multiple EVs in the market that offer a better range.

9. Inefficient Regenerative Braking System
The regenerative system in hybrids is similar to that in EVs.

Its main purpose is to convert all extra energy to repower the battery.

However, in hybrids, users complain that the system is inefficient because it doesn’t convert all of the excess energy into kinetic energy.


Due to the insufficient amount of energy captured, the battery of the hybrid vehicle doesn’t charge as much.
