Check the average mpg on your car online first. Then make sure that your cooling system is working as should. Before fixing, make sure there are no hidden over heating issues ooooo, make sure you fix those first.

I got my sensor at Apo in Abuja here. Didn't you test it before paying?

No. I didn't test the sensor, it was sent from Lagos to Kaduna. I just assumed since it was new, it would work.

Thank you so much for you help Sir. I really appreciate. I will make all necessary checks before installing the thermostat.

Can I please get the number of your plug for the 02 sensor @ Apo?

Whatsup Bro? I'll try to be as detailed as possible.

Is your car the 2.0L variant?? I hope it's not the 2.4L

So, the first thing I did was replace the O2 sensor,but even without the O2 sensor but with my thermostat intact I got 155miles. The previous owner didn't even know it was bad.
Then I installed a new intake manifold filter.
After that I installed my thermostat back and made sure the fan were not working with the ignition, this made a huge difference. I also changed the engine oil to the factory recommended.

Your upstream O2 sensor is the most important, make sure you get a good one. Someone told me on this forum that it would be difficult to get one, but I got one on my first try.

If your fan is a working directly, then I'm afraid you won't be able to achieve that.

If I didn't idle with AC on for 1hr+ maybe I would have gotten to 200 or 190miles+ with that 22 litres.

Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

My daily route is always combined traffic, but more of city driving. My previous car would give me 70 miles at its best with the same litres of fuel.


Sadly, mine is the 2.4L variant. I found out my thermostat was taken out and the fan was connected directly to work with the ignition. I think I should fix that first. Was the intake manifold filter bad or missing?
Can you please direct me or link me to where you purchased the 02 sensor, the one I got doesn't work.

Thank you boss

Can you share the dealer's contact details? A friend would like to buy some bags of flour.
Car Talk / Re: Fuel Consumption Update After Fixing Thermostat Part 2 by RayCharles(m): 10:31am On Apr 26
Hello OP.

Can we please get a detailed breakdown of all the steps taken to achieve this? I have a similar car, it consumes a lot of fuel. I recently changed my 02 sensor but it still doesn't reflect on the OBD II scanner.

Things I changed:
Air Filter
02 Sensor
Spark Plug

Is it possible for the 02 sensor to still be working even while the scanner doesn't show?

PS: I only changed the upstream 02 sensor (But sensors weren't working when I scanned).

Good day sir. I've wheat flour over 300MT if you're interested. 08034827792 is my number. It's in Kano, we can send to your location.

The picture above/below is a sample of what we delivered to a dealer at Jos.

Agriculture / Re: FEED MAKING INGREDIENTS by RayCharles(m): 8:16am On Aug 24, 2022
It's in a 50kg bag sir. But I would advise you to weigh in tonnes instead of bags. The MT gives you a more accurate number of what you're buying. 1 ton is 340k (Negotiable). But we can continue with bags if you prefer that.

What is the size of the bag and how much does it cost per bag
Agriculture / Re: FEED MAKING INGREDIENTS by RayCharles(m): 9:31am On Aug 23, 2022
Good morning. I've over 11,000 bags over soya meal @ Tokarawa Kano State. It's of very high-quality sir. Here is my number 08034827792.

NB: You can pick up any quantity you want. Thanks

Am interested in your soya meal. Where is your location?

Thanks for this. Appreciate it.
ShenTeh:


Baba, if you want sincerity, it would not be on this thread. With all due respect to the op's efforts, you see an 'almighty' S40 advertised for 300k and you want to hear stories of bliss here?


You'll have to create a new thread on your enquiry in the CarTalk section.

iAudio:
2002 406 does not parade this engine. This engine (XU10) is found in 1995 to 1998 and few 1999 models.

Therefore, this vehicle is not the 2002 model.

OP, please answer this question.
