Bad Fuel And Vehicle Speed .... by mecussey(m): 10:17pm On Nov 20, 2014 |
I never knew we have Bad fuel in the country. My car has been finding it difficult to speed up recently, I thought it was the usual shaft, oil, spark plugs or bearing. I replaced the plugs, the shaft and changed the oil still can't get the fun of Grand theft auto. Until, today when my fuel went to reserve, I went to a very popular station, lo and behold my car ran after Hamilton's F1. I never knew fuel could have such effect on vehicle. Please, fill your car in a good filling station. . |

What Nigeria has is unleaded crude which is mostly exported. Since all our refineries are producing way below her optimum capacity, most of the fuel we use is imported and probably sourced from crude with high lead content besides anything goes in our economy so the quality of pms and other petroleum by products are not really considered. |

GAZZUZZ: Nobody just the physics idea I have about friction. I don't like tellin a mechanic that I don't know whats wrong with my vehicle. Otherwise, they will do nonesense and still chop you on top. |

mecussey: and you thought a bearing would stop your car from accelerating ? a worn bearing will just make noise it wont affect the the speed |
Re: Bad Fuel And Vehicle Speed .... by mecussey(m): 12:25pm On Nov 21, 2014 |
ZIMDRILL: Friction opposes motion and a good bearing is their to reduce friction. I think it does affect the speed expecially when the greesing is dry. Or, are my mistaken bearing for hub? I think the two works together |

Bad fuel hmm. I remember travelling from the east to abuja some years back with public transport. All was smooth until we got to lokoja and refuelled immediately after stopping to eat. The rest of the journey was miserable. It took us 4hrs from lokoja to abuja (no traffic on the way) Bad fuel is that bad |

ZIMDRILL: Really? Sorry but i think you should reconsider that statement. A really worn bearing would cause your car to drift to oneside and wear out your tires very quick. mecussey:Mr you are right. |
Re: Bad Fuel And Vehicle Speed .... by mecussey(m): 6:46pm On Nov 21, 2014 |
GAZZUZZ: Not at all, Med doctors don't write clearly, especially when they are prescribing drugs. My writings are very clear here. |

icemann: you are lying to yourself the engine is able to force pin a worn bearing no matter what except the bearing has been welded or being spinned until it melts to be solid metal dont confuse a worn bearing and seized calipher that forces the pads to hold tight on the disc so far i have never a worn bearing on car that wont let the engine turn or reduce the speed of the car remember no matter howworn out the bearing is it is always pressed between the arm and the cv |
