One thing about paying a good mechanic is, u would not even feel the amount of money u go spend, cause they know what they are doing. But to appreciate dat is kind of talent, u will need to be kazeemized first

Got to location in isolo, it was easy to find, vehicle looked like it had not moved in months! Body was in fair condition , only had a really bad rear bumper , the interior was dirty! But nothing Eze couldn't clean up, the engine bay was as red as ikorodu mud could be with cobwebs , but interestingly no wires flying up and down. Opened the radiator and saw fresh coolant, Engine oil dip stick I saw almost clean engine oil at normal level, transmission oil dipstick was at normal level and very bright pink!

* Noisy suspension front and rear (danfo type)

* Engine slugish (underpowered )

* Engine cranks longer than necessary

* Stuck in 3rd gear, bangs in drive and reverse.

* Starts in neutral only

* Horrible brakes

* No horn

* Very stiff power steering

* Tyres worn out

* Engine bay, interior trunk filthy

* Body jobs required

* Paint work required

* Rear bumper required

* Rear lights getting cracked (sunburn)

* AC dysfunctional.

* Car stereo Display not working

Most of what I could see at that point in time.



Going thru my head at this point is, make vehicle drivable transmission, small body work, steering then quickly flip it dru23 style make a quick 50-70k.

Then another voice reminded me that there was no run around vehicle in the shop and this would be perfect for teaching the Bois how to drive and quick errands.

I started work.

Called Eze to come wash the interior and trunk while I simultaneously started work in the engine area.

First things first a scan

Revealed transmission codes some solenoid A stuck one kind like that, I ignored it, inspected harness was intact, went over to engine and removed valve cover and timing belt cover.

The timing was off by a mile! Explains the loss of power and sluggish movement.

Remarkably, when the cover was opened the engine was CLEAN! As in what was obtainable in a foreign used engine, with good history, I went back to our chat and I was like this guy no wind me o!

GAZZUZZ:
Theres a guy in Benin i usually send ECUs to fix, when the replacement cost is on the high side, or when it's almost impossible to find.

There's also one upcoming star around me that says he fixes engine ECUs, there was a time I actually diagnosed a faulty 2gr-fe ecu for a permanent injector pulsation fault, and showed him what chip to replace and he did and it worked fine, so I decided to patronise him on the possible repair of the engine ECU of this car.

Uncle charged me ₦35,000! I lamented but he refused to shift ground I paid and he told.me.toncome back for it same day in the evening .


Evening came I picked it up, installed it went for test drive, all gears selected really well car drove like a champ! One thing about these tiny cars is they are very nice sprinters .

Time to take vehicle for an engine bay and underbody wash.
