Car Talk › Re: Removing Car Thermostat::: by Specialist900(m): 10:17pm On Aug 17, 2016
kingreign:
A thermostat that's stuck close is best replaced, but if a suitable replacement can't be found, its better to run with out thermostat than have a close thermostat damage your engine thru over heating
same thing I said that if the thermostat is faulty it should be changed but if it's not faulty he shouldn't remove it.

Now please should I go ahead or not.
I need your urgent response to this.
if the thermostat is the culprit, then you should change it otherwise don't remove it

Dzeko is worse than Walcott. The calibre of strikers we need are of the class of Aguero, Suarez, Lewandoski, Griezmann, Higuain etc Or else a striker that would become the next big thing eg Lacazette, Icardi, Morata etc

Honestly, if not these, lets just groom Akpom.
Akpom no be this season project na

He doesn't seem fast enough to play in the Arsenal set up as I would wish. I mean we want a fast striker to offer us something different from Giroud.
with AW constant complain of no striker in the market won't we manage Bony?

I still wonder why AW couldn't bid for Dzeko when he left city

If for one reason U are in Nigeria and you felt you need your car sorted and you can't be bothered to get dirty never leave your car alone with the mechanics try that you will 4 ever tell the story . Something will go miss or a case of cooling bleed will turn to changing your ECU 9ja guys sha not all but few bad eggs have cast a dark name on the good ones
exactly, some mechanics will intentionally or unintentionally create a fault that will make you return back to them for further fixes.

I'm trying to understand your question ?
OK, is it that the range rover built for the UK market(RHD) has special feature that can't be found in those built for the US market or other markets (LHD)?
Car Talk › Re: Conversion RHD To LHD 2012 Range Rover Autobiography Sport by Specialist900(m): 12:01pm On Jul 23, 2016
Op,

Is it that there is a special build for the UK market that can't be found in builds for other markets?

Siena:
[color=Blue]Oddly enough, I've never had a Caucasean stand over me, while I'm working, even if I'm carrying out a major procedure, like an engine conversion, engine strip-down, rebuilding to run forced induction, etc.

On the other hand, a Nigeria would bring his car over to me, for a minor procedure, like a timing belt replacement, and try to insist on hanging around. I simply drop the hood, they ask me am I postponing the job? I say no, I'm cancelling it. I don't do supervised jobs, they say they're not supervising, merely learning. I say, I don't run classes.

In the end, they leave. I never get the same issues with Nigerian girls / women, when they bring me their cars to work on. They trust me, to get on with it. [/color]
it's basically trust issues, some of our mechanics aren't trusted. Personally, sometimes my mechanic comes to carry my car to fix. Returns it when he's done with the fix. Other times, I take it to his garage and return later to pick up the car.


If he wants to learn, he should come register grin
Car Talk › Re: I Just Saw Why your car ABS Can Save your Life. by Specialist900(m): 6:29pm On Jul 22, 2016
adanny01:
My friend and i had a similar experience a month ago. One of the ABS sensors has been having small issues since a mechanic cut the harness. The wire was only connected by twist and taped with electrical tape insulator. Every time work is done on the wheel the wire disconnects. This time it was disconnected and my friend planned to solder the wires so that the joint will be stronger. Having no much time, he kept driving the car with ABS light on the dash knowing its just a simple wire he can work himself.

This fateful rainy morning, we were not going to work late and in a hurry on the popular Kubwa express in Abuja. He was doing 140km/h, approaching a corner with a car in front and a pool of water with not very good set of tires. He applied brakes and the tires instantly locked with no ABS, skidding out of control to the open drains. We hit the side kerbs which sent us drifting towards the median missing it by whiskers before coming to a stop after several drifts left and right. It was only the alloy wheel that took the hit but i had to point out to my friend how the series of carelessness almost killed us or destroyed his car.
recipe for disaster
