Is the car still shutting down? Have you check the tank for dirt?[/quote]No dirt in tank

The new mechanic I met says it's fuel pump dt mine is weak he even said he will give guarantee if it doesn't solve the problem.

Managing the car like dt for now till 3rd January.

The good part is that it restarts after shutting down n drives up to 4 miles before it happens again

erico2k2:
The major thing in this scan is ur Pedal/Throttle position sensor
I take it your car cooling fan runs directly from battery, if not replace coolant sensor.
Does ur car smoke? dose it lose Oil and coolant? Does it do over heat?

Yes fan runs directly no more running like factory spec

I've tried everything in my power to correct her in love but she's always defensive and most times end up fighting me for correcting her..

I'm engaged to be married to her in few months and i love her so much. I really don't have a problem with the fact that she put too much salt in everything but she can't be corrected and i don't know how else to go about it.

This salt stuffs isn't really good for my health.

Too much salt is poison to your system.

It's sth to nip in the bud

chillex8:
Replace ect sensor.

Will look in that direction

Head gasket has popped or crack in the cylinder pick one. Water is getting into the cylinder/s. Check to make sure this isn't occurring.[/quote]Hmmm this should cause over heating?

Car is not over heating at all

Yeah. But change them if you can

Check to see if your air filter is dirty

Clean the throttle body too[/quote]Air filter recently changed

Lexusgs430:
At idle, what's your rev count(idle needle) on .........

Idle rpm on starting

Almost 900,rpm

no hard starting

oxygen sensor can not cause an engine to shut down in traffic

Now the problem is that his car engine shuts down in traffic or at times when he slows down.

He has changed
Plugs
Plug wire
Fuel filter
Fuel pump

I have scanned it n here is the DTC, I am thinking it's a sensor issue?

Hello, nairalanders in the house, pls I need your sincere advice in this matter.

I have known this lady I really want to marry for over 2 years now. Though our friendship have been a casual one. The issue is she told me she is a graduate and then i visited her house over 2 years back I met her mom and she asked me where I came from- my tribe and if I am a graduate and told her my tribe and yes I am graduate.

She said she wants her daughter to marry a graduate because she has done her best to train her school. It was of recent we started a serious marriage relationship and I told my pastor and we both met with pastor already.

It Is now she told me that she did not graduate that she was unable to pay school fees, though she went up to 500level and did I.T but her parents only paid 100 and 200 level school fees. She said she has no result/certificate. I told her am honestly disappointed for hiding this from me ever since and she said it is because I have not really made my intentions know to her.

One of the reasons I like her was being a graduate and I have not dreamt of marrying a non graduate.

Pls your sincere advice.

End the relationship and look for a graduate and marry except u want to start training her in school ie if she is willing to go back to school.

Hello friends, I'd like to ask intelligent and older minds for advise about an issue before I react.

My wife's elder brother is visiting my house and my wife has been serving his food first before serving and bringing my good, in my own house.


Please I just want to ask if this is wrong or right or even just normal?

I worked all through the night and was famished by the time the day broke this morning. I gave her some dough and told her to prepare me noodles and sardine, emphasizing on the fact that I was very hungry.

NOTE: Her Brother was still asleep at this time.

She prepared the meal, split it into two. Woke up and served her brother first in my guest room before coming to my room to give her hungry husband his food.

I was so mad, I ignored the food, went out to smoke a cigarette. While I was doing that it occured to me ask for advice here, because I didn't want to ask anybody I knew personally.

I still don't know whether to be mad, or to just ignore it.

I am a strong believer of common sense and respect and her actions this morning lack both! It would have take her less than 30 seconds to give me my food then go wake and serve her brother!

Is she told me she needed money for something and I put my younger sister's need over her's-no matter how tribal her's might be-i know how she'd react and the amount of making up I'd have to do.

I am trying to be very mature about this, that's why I keeping things anonymous?

Besides I'd like to know, I possibly can't be the only person who has experienced this sort of situation because they say there's nothing new under the sun. Please who has ever felt this way, I am very understanding and if something irks me, it would irk every body else too.


Wish I could explain better

It's a very bad behavior u need to calm down and talk to her about it. She may not see anything wrong with it

Richpet85:
Please do not mind my english consider any error as typo but I honestly needed a sincere advice.

My marriage will be 8 years by September 2022. The journey of marriage has not been rosy and sometime I feel I made a very huge mistake by marrying my wife. I met her in April that year, we date for 6 months and we finally got married Sept same year. Prior before we got married I took her to meet with my siblings since my both parents were late specially our 2nd daughter who her husband sponsored my secondary education. She was cool with my family and never raised any concern during this period of courtship.

Suddenly a night of our wedding everything changed. That same woman that took care of my family as hers turned into directly opposite of who she used to be. To cut the story short, she started dispising my family and the thought of their sight irritates her.

She started by complaining about my sister's son living with me before we got married, her mum and other of my siblings to the point that anytime my eldest sister visited she will leave my house with tears.

My wife also ensure she send all my siblings and relations away from me and my house no go area for them. But what confuses me was that she doesn't behave in a similar manner whenever her own siblings or her mum visits our home. Her behaviour towards my family has destroyed the joy we once had as siblings. The marriage has produced 3 kids of which my last child is less than a month old. Anytime she put to bed her mother has always been the one coming for OMUGOO. None of my siblings can come to my house because of her attitude towards them.

I can't tolerate it further am dying silently as am typing this msg her mum, her immediate junior Sister are in my house and every where is very peaceful. If they were my mum or sibling my house would have been burning by now.

I made conscious effort to kill and ignore this feeling but anytime I see her mum and sister. I feel very depressed in my own house. There are other ill behaviour she have which I can tolerate but seeing myself separated from my siblings because of my wife is my greatest Marital night mare.

I am sincerely fade up with her but my kids are my greatest weakness. The thought of leaving my house and go far away from her or rather travel abroad and leave there permanently has recently overcrowded my mind. But I can't stop thinking about my kids, their future and what they will turn into if she is to raise them alone.

Don't forget I have provided her with everything needed to be comfortable in marriage, house, cars, business etc mostly importanly I am not cheating on her, I don't smoke, I don't keep late night and I don't have friends because she has sent everybody close to me away from my life.

I need a mature advice and no insult please.

I am emotionally trumatised and feel so depressed.

Just listen to yourself talk you are loving her family while she hates urs n cuts them off completely.

Now place ur right hand on ur fore head and shout I receive sense now in Jesus name now.

She is ur husband forget about who is providing in a marriage, once there is no strong will in a man, u can't lead a woman.

Imagine complete house wife riding u, what if she was working n earning bigger? U for be her cleaner.

Man up or manage her like dt with ur excuse

Babsojimjim:
Dear All,

The write up below is exactly what a friend is going through from his wife. Please what sort of action can he take?

Despite, all he has done to please his wife, called Reverend fathers and pastors to counsel them both, his wife is still indifferent to him and is threatening to quit the marriage, citing accumulated pains of the past.

Currently, she says she wants to go back to her parents house else she will die or commit suicide. The man called her parents, and their advise was that since she is his wife, he should decide if to allow her leave his house to come and see them (parents) or stay in his house that the decision is his as the husband.

At this juncture my friend is confused and dont know what to do again.

Even the unmarried friend of his wife who came to stay with them is not helping matter at all as she seems to be enjoying the challenge between my friend and his wife.

Please advise needed. Thanks.

Allow her go immediately

Marriage is not by force, the more he holds her the more trouble she will give him.

There are things u don't beg for and love is one of them.

quote author=Amebong post=108572306]All my life it's actually my first time to experience this sort of thing. I have been dating this girl for a while and things have been going well until we decided to knack. On that faithful evening, we knacked and sat and talked like two matured adults and talked.
The next day babe called me and was like I should stop talking to her and any kind of intimacy we had shared should be forgotten.
She even said she has a serious boyfriend and I should stay off her life.
I was shocked really.!!
What went wrong? Was I just used and dumped.?
I think she just wanted my body! Girls are farking cheats.!!![/quote]U were horrible in bed she was disappointed

Just move on n stop whining

U should be surprised since u have not coached for over 5years.

He ll start taking bribe from players to invite them na today

AntiMCU:
If he's 40 years and not yet achieved, then he can remain single all his life: nothing bad in that, after all marriage is double struggle for a man from humble background.

As regards all these "assets" talk you folks use to qualify some women, it is total hogwash. 99.99989 % of women are hypergamous, seek comfort and still wants the man to provide regardless of the fact whether she has her own money or not. In fact, the so called "assets" don't exist.

There is no guarantee you will not be poor for life simply bc u choose to remain single for life to evade poverty. Alot of things in life has no guarantee.

It is not of him that runnet or of him that willet but of him that God showeth mercy.

There is always a God factor in life, work hard but don't forget to pray hard too

It's better to be 40 and single and poor than 40 and married and poor.

Supreme145:
True boss but the situation of things in this country is already out of hand, it's a gamble I'm not willing to take.

Avoid liability and marry an asset. Nyansh n boobs no be asset. What happens if u are 40 and not yet financially bouyant?

Supreme145:
There is this motion that giving birth to children is an achievement in this country. I see young guys in mid and late twenties rushing into marriage while they are barely standing on their feet. From someone that comes from a family of 10 I'm sure if my dad is given a second chance he won't give birth as much children again. Let me share some of my experiences as regards giving birth without proper planning or sustainable income.

I've a neighbor in my compound, he's 32 and in his final year in the university, I can hardly have decent conversation with him without hearing about how he wants to get married. I would always remind him that he's living in a one room apartment, still a student without a strong source of income, but he would counter me saying that he can always start small and grow with his wife. Moreover when he gives birth he would have an investment.

I've have another friend that was a classmate in secondary school, he graduated the year I got admission though he had some issues with his results. One day he called me that he's married and I was surprised, though he is an artisan into all those parapets and pop stuffs I know he wasn't financially buoyant enough to carry a family. The last time I visited him he was looking malnourished and unable to sort out his issues in school almost four years after because according to him any money that he gets already has a pending issue waiting for it. He's looking far older than his elder brother who's still single, he looks 38 when he's just 30. He consoled himself by telling me that even if he doesn't have money he already has two kids which he sees an investment and a great achievement. Meanwhile they are cramped into a single room apartment and none of the kids are enrolled in school.

Last week while we were training in the evening, an argument broke out between two young guys. I was just by the side observing what was happening, I kept hearing stuffs like....why you dey argue with that guy? you no know say na person father he be? that guy don born two children o abi you think say e easy to born, na big achievement be that o. Now this is a guy that is about 25 years and has no sustainable means of income, he works in peoples farms and other menial jobs to make ends meet.

My next door married neighbor has become a torn in my flesh, he's always borrowing from me without paying so it's obvious he's struggling financially, factor in the constant arguments with his wife due to shortage of funds all the time. I once asked him why rushed to get married without a good source of income and he bluntly told me that he had always been broke while he was single and still broke now that he's married the only difference is that he can boast of his kids as an achievement unlike when he was single that he had nothing to boast of.

I have no issues what so ever with how anyone choose to life their life but considering the economic condition of this country now bringing in kids without proper plans is not the way to go. If my dad had given birth to maybe 3 kids I'm sure he wouldn't be stressed out the way he is now and the resources used in training 8 kids would be better managed on just 3kids.

Personally I feel that one of the surest way to perpetual poverty as a young guy is to get married while struggling financially. Like one of the examples above, he cast aside his personal development and aspirations just to cater for his family. Supposing he's still single I'm sure he would have cleared he's outstanding school fees and maybe get his certificate.

Well since I'm still single and still struggling I don't judge anybody, every mallam to his kettle. As for me no marriage till I'm financially stable enough to afford at least 3 bedroom flat, a small car and substantial savings. It would be an abomination for me to bring a child into this world to pass through the kind of life I had growing up.

If u have a productive woman u love then u are good to.

U can get married and have ur children gradually and build together

proxillin:
So much fun at the wedding. I noticed something. And this is not the first time.

The Bride was just an average looking lady. I don't want to sound rude by saying she is ugly. Despite the heavy makeup, she is still what she is.

But the story is, all her entourage, best lady, bridal train were beautiful straight girls. Her friends are so gorgeous. I kuku mingled with 3 of them exchanged whatsapp numbers. And they are telling me they are single.

I keep asking, why are guys always marrying these average looking girls? Who marries these beauty queens? They are always friends of brides.

Or is it me not getting the gist?

Most of the beautiful ones no get sense, character and are mostly slay queen that are unproductive ( no job, skill or business acumen). Just waiting for someone son to bankroll them

Every one is now a Facebook comedian, poverty and unemployment at it's highest now

SUPERPACK:
But she just did what the male SUG presidents before her can't do.

How can SUG be donating to VC? Very illogical probably imposed by VC

Greed

Why didn't you use P2P on binance bc the guy probably offered more naira for ur dollars? Next time think more of guarantee n security

dreside:
I want to do redo the DNA but it difficult now cos the girls dad ask her to take the boy to the father since the dna test says it wasn't mine. It will be difficult for me to have access to the child. The boy has my eyes, nose and lips even the shape of my head sef.. Am just at a cross junction cos I don't know what to do and its really affecting me.

Until DNA says it's yours u are talking nonsense. It's only in 1891 ppl say such nonsense in 2021 DNA test is final.

Why does he even mean the world to you when DNA says it's not yours.

If u desperately need a child marry another woman n get many.
