Guy with such firm you can select any girl(from the lots that would be running after you) and marry..don't call it luck, rather its the girl who is lucky

aduboy:
Am disappointed with what happened in Rivers. No elections but results are announced and those who cheat are celebrating as winners. The most painful aspect is how people come online to defend these criminals who cheat them.

Can you swear that there were no elections in Rivers state? People like you are phony and deceitful..you drag our youths to death by wanting to repeat the voting episode.

If you like vote 10 times in Rivers and Akwa Ibom PDP will still win, you would only succeed in killling more youths and damages, so be warned, greedy fool...

masterpix:
natural you die of hate, idiot

Who is more tribalistic than the Yorubas and the Northern idiotic sentiment. Cow head!!

Raiders:
Is that the reason why PDP decided to rig the election

Thunder fire your head, so winning is now rigging because it has to do against APC

dammytosh:
You are right.

I support Obj and respect him as a statesman but he is notorious for losing his ward and polling units to any party apart from PDP since 1999

So this is not his doing

Dont mind the foolish old fool, who had opportunities to correct this country but failed woefully all round and now hes claiming saints. Who dosent know his story and numerous mischief:
1 Power fraud hundreds of billions of naira lost
2 Rural electrification fraud: Billions of naira lost
3 National ID card fraud, bilions of naira lost
4 Railway fraud, billions of naira lost
5 Fertilizer fraud
6 Privatisation fraud
7 Tollgate fraud
8 Electoral fraud and what have you.

If Buhary does not prosecute this old thief whom corruption fight must start with then he will be joking, i wouldn't take him serious.

Nigerian biggest criminal parading himself a saint deceiving fools up and down trying to gain cheap relevance

Oponu omo listen to the tape and you will hear when one of d men said he was sent by the president.........He shldnt av surrender,i guess he witness Gbagbo treatment and gaddafi.......after he has embezzled all ur money u cn stiill call him Hero..........gullible nigerians

What do you know and understand about POLITICS? So Borno, Kano and Kaduna etc that recorded outragious voters pvc such that less than 1/3 could not come for vote weren't rigging? The under aged that lineup in the North to Vote weren't rigging? Politics as the name implies is never perfect anywhere in the world. It's a game that is played by the Dons, if you've got nothing to say then sharapppp

aroti:
Indeed, If only they knew what tsunami of economic downturn is about to hit the state, they would think twice before making such impulsive decision. Should Wike win, Rivers state becomes an opposition party and a state that the national PDP would rely on ( along with most likely Aqua IBom) to foot a large chunk of their party's expenditure if they are to contend( by any stretch of imagination) with the ruling party(APC). Now combine this with an unrefined and cow boyish maladministrative tendencies of WIKE and his corrupt cohorts. The Rivers people are in for it this time! So unfortunate!

You got it all wrong, the Hausas and their cohort, Yerobas will Romance the Economy, then Rivers and Akwa Ibom will have to checkmate their excessive in this dispensation for the posterity of our children. Any attempt to disregard our royalties and trample upon for illegal oil well secession to corrupt government officials /private individuals will face massive vulcano eruptions. This check and balance must be there.. who cares about a dump transition that may only survive the test of time with her numerous dragoneer masqueraded display. She cant last more than 4 years . Leave her for our headache.

As for Wike he is already converted for our good, else the sit would be too hurt for him to sit. We are not fools by putting him there in lieu of the mouth toothed judas of Amechi and his maid servant.. We aint gona resume any "yes boss" to the centre just yet ,,this is action time for the south south. Take it or Leave it

Kolade354:
Are you in Nigeria? Are you aware of the Ekiti election rigging tape.......In any sane society omisore,fayose,obanikoro and even jonaadaft shld be in jail.

Thunder fire your head for daring "Jonathan" , my most acknowledge and respected hero in that stinking mouth of yours

irunoobo:
I'm not on your level so I won't dignify u with response any further. You are a small girl compared to me. You are obviously jealous of my sexy boobs and guess what, it attracts classy rich men that can never look at you twice. Iddiot

Dame!! so waywardly proud of self. You mean you've got weed in those brain of yours , so shameless motherf>ck

Your Oba need some education too. he is not worthy of that title ..Is this who rules u? Little wonder. As an Oba as suppose, how does he administer judgement to his subjects? He dethronement should be expedise. And u, what a waste

doctokwus:
Pardon me all for going off point.,But have been seeing those pics of GEJ in army uniform in michika trying to form swag and that of him in Asorock and what it always invokes in me is the impression of someone who is pretending to be doing sth while having no clue whatsoever of what the thing is about!

You are so sick with fish brain if you cant see what GEJ has been doing.
..Dont blame you cos u need some kinda education to understand the tactical and systematically civilized democratic approaches of GEJ.

Shame on you fool.

aguiyi:
thank you for this, will update update on weekend when i get there

Before you rush to spend money at Benz Affairs, you may be suffering from uleaded fuel issues.This cars are supposed to be driven on premium fuel...I had similar issues, AU Hanson adviced me to consistently use xft in absence of premium fuel. I did that , like magic the whole issues went off, since then no such issues came up again thereafter as i have been consistent using xft at every refilling.

You need to read his article on the unleaded fuel thing, a common sickness of benz and most sport cars.

tommysparks:
I have been trying to find out why extreme fuel treatment is not readily available in most shops and if it truly works as some forumites say and the company claims to have had this product for 20years calling to mind the fact that several additives have come and gone even the so called injector cleaner even leaves dirt on your nozzles and is no longer popular. I stumbled on this website that analyses scams and the arguments on extreme fuel treatment was amazing and all those who claimed it worked where those that distribute the product. @hanson and smart choice can you guys just spare some time to read the comments and let's analyse? Tanx. http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?t=127719&page=28

Chose not to believe anybody nor any write up online/offline. Stop using the product for some few days like a week or so. Calculate your your mpg in normal driving along the same route for like 3 times, calculate in an aggressive driving within the same route too and keep your readings, while observing your car plugs throttle body, exhaust fumes and the sound of your engine.

Then start using the xft ,with double dose for the first 2 usage, do your mpg calculation too as in above case but in normal driving and agressive driving. Pick your readings and compare with the former without xft. Come back and give us your testimony.

Some people hardly can notice anything like 35% increment in fuel economy , so to them it doesn't work, it's scam. Some hardly, or are too lazy to try out nor believe any positive innovation in life, their mindset is already programmed to resist any change, so they always want confirmation. Some have their a mindset tuned to, "if its not like this ,it doesn't work, no matter what". Some have flexible mindset, they are open to innovations and shared with any who cares to listen..Funny enough they always stumble into innovations because they are very receptive in nature and like trying out things with open mind and are always recording huge success, and also knows how to avoid the bad ones too.

I heard about this xft from AU. Hanson and decided to give it a shot, It works, if you are observant and follow the instructions, it cleans your emission system and prolong your engine lifespan as well as sounding your engine like new in continuous usage. I'm not even particular about the mpg, though it does that too by 30 to 35 % depending on your driving habit.

Hmm! the difference is quite clear, the Mercedes S65 AMG is the "koko". If you wanna do luxury thing with astute power and quality, go for the S65 AMG.

I had wanted to just read through as usual but could not bear the fragrance of ignorance that has been flying about at an astute accomplishment of a well define project that could be called a success story. a prophet has no respect in his home.
Did you guys actually read through the lines what the op wrote, or is it just convenient for you to just flip through and luk for what mr 'a' says and just follow sooth to conclude?

The op just stated a successful adventure for those who cares to benefit from, and you guys started chanting. If you read through the lines you would have seen his reasons for the materials used:
the weight factor to speed ratio,
you would have seen air to fuel combustion factor,
and the ecu factor .
Or is it today you start knowing that bigger wheels do gains? or that there are performance tires?
For goodness sake, he explained vividly the very essence of this project even the involvement of oxygen sensors. So what is so ridiculous about that? Is there no practical auto expert in the house who has been adventurous enough to clear this air of some jokers? Where is Siena?

I just got my solution to a project i'm handling at hand with one of my rides, and would have asked him a guide here to benefit all, but i have changed my mind because you guys don't deserve him. I'll rather consult him one on one as usual to scale through this too. If i were him i wouldn't respond to any of you anymore since you are making fun of it. I believe he paused to continue from there , but i will tell him that is needless to waste his time on you.. This is an applaudable adventure despite his tight schedule. If non of you appreciate him , i do. And i said gudos to him , bravo!!!

Hello Mr SmartChoice, how is the takeoff your new engine in relation to the old one and the rpm mark? Any picture will be highly appreciated

Their auto gears are too expensive to replace when spoilt, so people prefer the manual tranny

AU. Hanson, your rpm looks rich at idling, indicating strong health of your engine

I miss the carnival, i couldn't come home though

Piyke: With both hoses off, plug the holes to prevent contamination by dust particles

Hello Piyke, is that the steering pump? or could it be liken to the steering pump in Benz

Can someone give me a website that i can view the full activities Calabar carnival ? thanks

You need to check your tuning , i mean your engine tuning and also your plugs and current for leakages anywhere. Also if your engine compression is low as a reult of dirt, carbon build up,it wouldnt stand it that has to do with your cylinder heads and injection system- That i learn from AU. Hanson in Mercedes Benz thread

smartchoice: interesting hanson.....so the 71 thermo opens @ a lower temp to enable faster cooling....

Sure! just before the hot atmospheric weather conditions overwhelm it

au.hanson:
Ha ha ha, Prudence you are flattering me here..thanks anyways

You see , when i was in Iowa in 2005/6 pursuing a course in computer hardware maintenance and web development, i was always missing home , i wanted to know how things fare at home , the contrast between home and abroad usually excited me, that is why i always curtail my solution to the particular locality at stake because i know enthusiast abroad would always want to know how it goes over here.They miss the territory. Anyway that is from experience

Back to the topic, i was just wondering this morning , my mind was just driving at this thermostat thing and the season at stake overhere at the moment, then i said to myself, if i had a nightmare(head gasket cracked 2 times) about 2 years ago with 85 degrees thermostat in my MB 190 and had to change it to 71 degrees and the nightmare went off,by analogy, then why don't i try similar thing and see. So this morning i decided to swap the 87 degrees thermostat with 71 degrees both whaler brand in my MB c180 just to observe this crasy temperature rise..just an experiment that could turn into a theory for the locality at stake.

I tested the 71 degrees thermostat on a hot afternoon sun, took out the car for a ride of about 8 miles distance, visiting places i had not visited for so long. In about some few minutes the temp settle at about 82 degrees celsius, as i survive the traffic without having to deploy any management skill like before and came back home the temp hits 90s+ but never exceeded 100 degrees unlike before, where it would have hit 110+ putting my fans in panic mode(and eventually my ECU will shutdown the ride at the middle of the road,what a embarrassment untill the system cools off). see picture below. So i stand to deduce that:

1. Temperature thing is territorial and seasonal
2. In this season, a gain of extra 10 degrees is added to your normal thermostat range.That is if your installed thermostat reading is 71, definitely your overall temp will gauge about 82 degrees;if your installed thermostat reads 87 degrees definitely your overall temp will gauge about 99 degrees and so on...
3. It wouldn't be a bad practice to install 71 degrees thermostat in this season and have peace of mind than managing in panic mode.

Please contrary opinion is welcome

See pictures below of my MB 190 and C class 71 degrees thermostat installed in both cases

hmmm! very interesting

Mr Hanson, your knowledge of Benz is overwhelming by the day, and the manner you pass the message across in respect to the locality, a lame man can understand . Good job keep it up. I have been enjoying all the way, nice hobby though to an IT guru

smartchoice: @prudence

Both Behr Thermostats are marked 87 Celsius

Oh thanks!

What about the sticker under your hood? what is the temp range there?

smartchoice: lol

_{removes the 4 tires, replaces fuel pump relay with a spoilt one, disables the coil boots, interchanges the harness wire plugs and cuts the ckp in the middle! Now send your malams to buy....}

Smartchoice, your attention is needed here:" https://www.nairaland.com/1087033/reliability-c180-w202s-general/9#20350901"
thanks

smartchoice: After installation temprature quite high because (I suspect) the mechanic did not adequately bleed the coolant system resulting in trapped bubbles. Movement is sharp cos I also just replaced the back suspension system in its entirety.

Cause of engine failure..my suspicion is that the wrong grades of engine has been used for an extended period of time prior to my ownership. Hence the car started smoking after a period of time.(months)

Got the engine for 40k without the compressor, installation 9k and transportation 7k from Apapa to Ekiti. Oil 8k Total quartz 9000 10w 40

Behr thermostat for the new engine unfortunate came with a broken waste pipe so I had switch to the old one. do you need one?

Smartchoice , i must confess i'm really impressed by the information about the engine cost and so on you open up here. Many would not conceal such. I am really astonished by the price. I dont really know how you guys make this magic happen, it really confirms what 'AU. Hanson' told me for those of you who have the eyes like you.

However, if i may ask, just curious, what is the temp. reading of the behr thermostat you remove from the follow come engine?
Also, under your hood, what is the stamped temp range for your car?

Reason for asking this is that, in my long elaborate private discussion with A. U. Hanson on phone, tho he is very busy at the moment {writing programmes and some serious IT deadlines delivery.. very skillful dude} He said that some of those engine for that model comes with 71 degrees thermostat, factory built, and that the allowable temperature range of those cars can been seen on the frame under the hood at the engine bay, but he wouldn't like to publish it on nairaland to avoid any contradiction with the fact of 87 degrees temp already understood overtime.

He also went a step further to enlighten me on the whaler thermostat thing and other spare parts in our local market, the information that has been lacking ever since, he said that those thermostat is not coming from America as popularly believed , but from china stamped whaler, a house hold name just to get marketed by the distributors, that no American themostat would go for 1000, 2000 naira in the market, because they cost in labour into production as against the Chinese that only produces the cost of technology as labour is very cheap overthere...Infact, i was convince by the logical explanation behind our importers going to China to imitate such product to cheapen the cost of these product to make it available at affordable price in our local market, hence no worries about high precision built for failure technically. If i doubt him, i should try importing whaler from the USA, then i will be astonished at the cost.

He also mention that the ownership of Benz abroad is quite different from what is obtainable here locally, because of this factor, and our patronage to the after market, what is popularly called the Belgium market-that this help bring down the cost of spare by more than 100 percent for Nigerians- that this is not the kind of information he should like to divulge here for integrity sake and industry standard sake. That those who knows it key into it for their benefit- that is why you could buy a full engine at such a cheap amount of 40k same amount wouldn't buy a water pump in my w203 Benz here in Miami

ziccoit: I need Behr thermostat including the automatic A/C heater control unit compatible with W202 1997 C230. I will be happy if you can be of help. Though, Au.Hanson has offered to help with the AC control unit but, it seems his hands are full now. So, I wouldn't mind if you could be of help. My mail is (ziccoit at gmail dot com). Thanks chief.

Ziccoit, if i were you i would have given the available brand a chance, since they are so cheap, and observe it to see when it will actually fail, and let us know in nairaland.
When i confronted AU. Hanson , He actually confesses that its his benz 190 that has installed whaler brand thermostat for over 2 years now, that he is waiting to see when it will fail, but his c class whaler thermostat was actually installed early this year , the mixup that caused him so much embarrassment and misunderstanding in MB thread-that he is sure that those items aint coming from USA- you need to talk with this guy if he weren't busy then you would be so much informed. He is quite a very intelligent and easy going person but too busy...

au.hanson:
You mention PH, thats my area. If i had seen this earlier on maybe i could have offered to squeeze out time to go there and sort out the issue for you free of charge on a saturday/sunday like this, tho i'm not a mechanic, i have done it for close friends before. Anyways , its not too late , you can send me pms against next weekend if that will be ok by you?

Hello guys, I want to really appreciate the effort of one of you who went and fix my my c180 MB on Sunday free of charge, despite his busy Schedule. I didn't know Nigeria still have people like this. Thankyou very much bro.

I am so honored to appreciate him openly in this forum and to state what he did for your information. How i wish he would come out to narrate the steps taken by him to solve such problem for me , because he has been so wonderful according to my mum:

He was able to diagnose the car down to the level of low resistance wires around and via the ignition coils. Infact,despite the fact that the car ECU could not link to his diagnostic tool, he absolutely tested the wires and rewire them back, the main culprit .The car had a multiple problem. He went a step further and replace the keys,as the key was also burnt.He replace the Bendix at the spot as well as even detected another unnoticeable fault with cylinder 2 valve. He actually did a compression test and found out that cylinder 2 was shutdown, according to him probably, because of the misfire, the ecu detected and shutdown that cylinder to avoid damage to it. the valves are really having issues hence will need a rework.

Now to crown it all the vehicle was restarted by him and my mum is using it again. She confesses that the car performances is better than before. Although he caution that the valve issue in the cylinder 2 should be tackle sometime soon by a good mechanic, that he could even do it for me if he is chance again by the upper week, but that he can only do that in his place, of which i am very comfortable with.

This guy is a human MB manual. He went on to explain that it is a big task to remove the cylinder head and replace or rework the valves, seats etc as appropriate by some engineering workshop. How i wish he will come up to speak for himself and detail his approach for our knowledge.

Thanks Hanson. the car will be brought to you only at your convenience for the remaining task. I dont want anybody to touch it. Thanks once again.

au.hanson:
@ Prudence.smart, wht you narrated there could be narrowed down to your fuel system , or electrical issues(issues to do with fuel pump, plugs etc). I wont be surprise if the result of a scan test reads p0300 trouble code(a ramdon cylinder misfire , may have series of other codes in chain).

Dont change anything just yet, though as you have said it may have overstressed the kick(i could still fix that for you , its only the bendix that could wear out in this case, and that cost just 1k5)the primary issue is a minor problem, first of all scan the vehicle.

You mention PH, thats my area. If i had seen this earlier on maybe i could have offered to squeeze out time to go there and sort out the issue for you free of charge on a saturday/sunday like this, tho i'm not a mechanic, i have done it for close friends before. Anyways , its not too late , you can send me pms against next weekend if that will be ok by you?

Oh Hanson, that will be so kind of you, but this model couldn't be scanned with ODBII, besides ODBI is very scare these days. I'm gona mail you immediately, probably we gonna talk

I'm very sorry with your misunderstanding with Trac, how i wish you guys can work together.

You're a great guy, a field worker, a solution provider,very practical even at the shortest notice...If you weren't, you couldn't have crossed from your vast IT profession to such spec of enthusiastic proficiency in automobile. I can imagine your busy schedule, you must be very hard working that commands my respect.

Trac is a teacher, an automobile engineer, an industry standard preacher, philosophically strong termed character.

Trac, why dont you draw the designs and give it to Hanson to deploy? In essence , if you guys can sheat the sword and look more on your strenght, you can make a perfect compliment in this thread if you dare work together... How i wish this could happen between you two.
Trac and Hanson, i implore you guys to sheat the sword and co-opt in the real sense of the word , you could make a strong team.

First Trac , Start by deleting those strong philosophical quote of yours and reconcile with your brother. Make amends and mean it. Oh! how i wish sincerely, but i can't compel you guys. But just know that you are two different individuals, appreciate the fact that you cannot agree on terms, that doesn't make you wrong neither, perhaps if you throw more light on your subjects your distinction can be appreciated by you both and all of us at large. I know what i am saying , i have experience in this. I am very convince that both of you are right, but there're some gray areas you need to convince one another.

Please house, permit my unusual approach, all protocol observe.

I have a benz c180 94 model far back home in Nigeria, to be precise in PH with my mum, just yesterday she told me that the car entered a limb mode while she was driving. She narrated that she entered one unusual road that was so terrible, in some instances she had to put off the ac as the car would attempt to enter a limb mode under hard maneuvering, then at a point she couldnt bear the heat and dust than to just keep the ac life throughout the rough terrain , but unfortunately the car finally entered a limb mode and nothing she did could revive the vehicle, it had to be finally towed back home after having run down the battery and affected the kick badly.

Initially the car would crank but remains very powerless, could not accelerate when engaged the gear, now it cant even remain in idling anymore

Someone is coming to install a new key and bendit, and i have caution her not to stress the new kick untill i come home at christmas hols if solution could not be offered.

House please help:Your input and wonderful expertrate is welcome here. Thanks in advance.

Also,according to her initially before this incidence, the engine use to have a little noticeable shaking when first crank in the morning as though the engine sitting were bad or the water pump, where you have the hydrualic fan was making some unusual sound as in rattling.
