khaleesi:
Hello, pls I need your advise. My A.C cools when I set it on low in the mornings and evenings and when its rainy..but in a hot afternoon or even hot morning, I have to put it on 3 to really feel anything. When I put my hand to the vent there is cold air yet it doesnt seem to be spreading. Any suggestions? Thanks

Old thread but I have similar issue, am wondering if mine has to do with the ambient sensor that is not present in the car? because I had new filters installed early this year.

Regards

Yes I did, I changed it today double cell radiator. Brand new. Not like the car overheats but the temperature gauge rises above the middle line while using the Ac in traffic and immediately i switch it off, it comes down.

I hope it was double cell that is the actual specification of the car, my car had a single cell and changing it to single cell was all I did. So how is the performance after the change?
By the way you may want to check your coolant as well, if you can't afford the original Toyota coolant don't go for the Abros rather go for distilled water instead.

Please how did you resolve this issue. I am having the exact problem. Its giving me sleepless nights as it is. Removed thermostat, changed radiator and recently even replaced gasket.

Would be looking forward to your reply

Did you change radiator to a new exact car spec?

In other words, you only changed your radiator?

Yes that's correct.

Mustpower (e.g Felicity) is a good rugged and reliable brand - they have roughly 300% surge capability so a 3.5kva 24v should be able to handle your (1hp > 746watts × 3times surge) 2.24kw surge without trouble. Any of the MustPower - PowerStar IR or similar clones (transformer based) should do the job - I recommended Felicity because of their excellent after sales service.

Do you know if felicity makes hybrid pure sine wave inverter/solar and how reliable is it compared to the likes of ispirit series of mercury?

GAZZUZZ may have just done some wonder with my car! To be extra sure that it's one that will last, I will be taking the car on a long journey and I will come back to tell you my story in the next 2 weeks!

Meanwhile my mouth has been wide open thus far...wow!

I said I will be coming back on this and here I am. I have just completed a journey from Lagos to Ekiti. I ensured to travel between 11 and 5pm when the environment was largely hot.

In the past: Whenever I travel from Lagos to Ekiti (or vice versa) my coolant temperature gets to as high as 110C and it is when I stop using AC and maintain 120km/h that my temperature won't exceed 110 otherwise it will and I will be forced to slow down to avoid overheating.

I have tried all sort of things including changing gasket, plugs, injectors and meeting engineers that have advance scanners and was advised that I change the engine. I also meet kazeems who suggested that I connect fan direct and buy a double cell radiator.

I read about GAZZUZZ on Nairaland (and connected via WhatsApp) a friend of mine also told me about him so I decided that I was going to have him do the engine replacement as I don't like doing out of spec modes. Engine replacement with GAZZUZZ was going to cost around 200k+. I made up my mind, gathered the money and drove to GAZZUZZ in Lagos, he looked at the car briefly and said I should change my radiator and that he won't even do an engine change without my radiator change (this is where anyone who doesn't know his person may get pissed off as one may think he is being proud) . It felt too easy considering how far I traveled and the amount of time he spent with my car.

On the understanding that I will change radiator irrespective of engine change or not, I decided to go with GAZZUZZ advice of changing the radiator to a brand new single cell specs for the car, and also got the Toyota coolant. Behold the car temperature became stable, we test run within Lagos and all still checked out. I couldn't entirely believe it was true until I got to Ekiti with my max temperature at 97C. I was running AC and got past 140km/h without any temperature spike.

Finally people, I recommend that guy called GAZZUZZ, his pricing may be more than what kazeems charge or may look awkward in your interaction with him but I can assure you that his service is on point.

@smart724 as you can see, am no longer selling my engine as it's kicking in my car!

Hello People,

I have a 1nz-fe car engine for sale, am changing the engine just on preference basis because the car temperature increases when am driving with AC. I have been told it's gasket but but I don't want to go through that process. I was also told it will be okay if I change my radiator to double cell, I also don't want to go that route.

The engine is very sound and it has less than 120k miles on it with less than 50k in naija. You can test drive the car before buying as it's still installed in my 2010 Yaris.

So if you are interested, you can come for the engine in Lagos. I need a buyer tomorrow at the latest!
Price: 80k - sightly negotiable.

Hello, you didn't give any full insight on inverter brand etc to help give reasonable answer to your question above ...

Hello, it's a 1.5kva sumo premium inverter. I got it a long time ago (over 5 years now) in the past it used to indicate the charging status but in the last 18 months it stopped doing that though from the battery readings I can see it's charging but I am just not sure it's doing so optimally?

Thanks

Computers › Re: Inverter Users : Lets Have Your Experience by ojeysky(m): 8:58am On Nov 16, 2018

Hello People,

I need to know if my inverter is not doing fine with the charging stages. At the initial charging state (bulk), it charges at a fast rate and once it gets to 26v the charging starts to fluctuate; it will get to 28.5 and then suddenly drop to 26.5 then it will go to 27.5 and again drop back to 26.5v. I thought it was supposed to just stay at 28.5v when it's fully charged?

Its 80v to 280v

Hmm...I don't know of any 10kva servo from prag that is 80v to 280v. Do you have pointers?

Prag has an 80 to 230v servo stab

It means it can't handle high voltage since it's 230v? There is also no prag servo at 10kva with 80v to 260v. I can't seem to find the 15kva servo of A&E at a friendly price so will settle for 10kva desktop

ebuks4ever:
Which oil are you using for your engine?

For your transmission, first point of call is to drain and refill your ATF. Toyota recommends Toyota WS ATF for your car.

Am using 5w30 lubex synthetic engine oil. It's in a blue 7 litre can.
I have noted your recommendation on the ATF, how many litres would I require and do you know the price?

Thanks

Car Talk › Re: Let's Talk About Automatic Transmission Fluid (gear Oil) by ojeysky(m): 7:58pm On Nov 05, 2018

Hello,

I am using 5w30 but have been noticing engine oil reduction in my last 2 change; I am on 3k miles at the moment and I have used over 5litre already. Is that normal? Car not smoking and it drives well.

I also notice my gear shifts to neutral when descending and it makes some noise before it then shifts to next gear, though it drives fine but I wonder if this means the ATF fluid requires changing? I have never changed it since I bought it over a year ago. I checked the fluid it's a little above the hot region and the colour is not black, though I don't know the ATF currently in it. If I should change the ATF, what's the recommended fluid

Thanks

yeah the A&E is superb, though my 10kva servo redlines the few times phcn dropped to 90v, with my 4kva mustpower inverter, 2 x 10liter water heater and 130w fridge, i ususally hv to turn off the water heaters to prevent the stabilizer from going into overload

Interesting experience you've got with A&E so maybe a 15kva is what I should have gotten then. Are you using the desktop version or wall mount? it seem the wall mount has more indicators than desktop. I have just been contacted that the wall mount I ordered is out of stock so am considering the desktop version.

heard good stuff about voltron, am actually in the market for a 15kva servo, looking for a sweet deal

I called datacomm and the feedback they gave was that Voltron input range for 12kva is 140v to 220v. I have never seen such a small band so I went for 10kva A&E instead which has 80v to 270v. I hope it will be sufficient for my load.

i got an A&E 10kva wall mount servo stablizer in 2015, after my 10kva servo prag failed after 1yr, and prag was unable to fix it. the A&E is still serving me ok to date., go for 12kva or 15kva if your voltage gets very low..<120v in your place, as the stabilizer load bearing capability reduces with lower voltage, a 10kva stab becomes a 3kva @100v input

What's the price range for A&E? How about Voltron Servo, any experience with that?:https://www.datacommexpress.com/khxc/index.php?app=ecom&ns=prodshow&ref=Voltron-VT11-12000-L

servos are faster, less noisy, less moving abi clicking parts, thus less prone to fail, local electricians are not so good at repairing them.
i prefer a servo, anytime, anyday

Am interested in this discussion, can you recommend a good servo product? I need one between 10kva and 12kva and I will also like to have one with wide band voltage, say 140v to 280v.
