Jceesquare, pls is his diagnosis confirm that his engine and fuel consumption is ok? Where can one run this diagnosis from jceesquare: Your mass air flow of 5.13g/s while engine is idling at 800 rpm is pretty on the high side. Your short term trim says it as your fuel consumption would be on the high side over time. |

Thanks for the response. So how did you get to keep P0420 away? So does this code affect fuel economy as this is the only code, I keep getting Macmilla: You are supposed to get p0420 if you don't have a cat. P0420 is simply telling you that your cat converter is no longer doing it's work. In other words, your cat is gone, o nago. The only work of downstream O2 sensor is to monitor the function of the cat. It doesn't improve fuel economy So for you to get p0420 means that your downstream O2 sensor is actually doing it's work. Install a new cat if you want. Leave your sensors alone. But as for me, I never bothered. I only found a way to keep that p0420 away despite not having a cat. |
Car Talk › Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by ThePundit14(m): 2:11pm On Apr 29, 2024 |
This is awesome. Pls let me ask. If you have P0420 code without Cat. If you change the 02 sensors. Does it help fuel economy? Macmilla: THE STORY OF BETTY ... Betty is my 2005 Honda Accord 4cyl. I got her Nigerian used last year. When I got her, she was like a malnourished and physically abused woman. -Her engine was smoking heavily and the old user deceived me by using very thick oil in addition to that evil thing called "stop smoking". -There were crazy electrical abuse like the engine could start no matter where the gear stick is. -The transmission was misbehaving mostly in cold mornings. -Of course, the cat was way gone, but then some evil human decided to cut the wires of the 2 O2 sensors for reasons I still don't understand. -Fuel economy was flushed down in the toilet. -All steering buttons were not working, but somehow the horn was working. -AC was working but not very powerful. -SRS and Seatbelt light on the dashboard were on. -Power steering was whining. ... With all these problems, the question now is why did I keep this car? 1. The price was good 2. This car was still good, first body and all. Engine looked neat. Abs was working fine. AC was working, though not optimal. So I told myself that the worst that could happen is a new engine and trans. 3. I wanted the challenge cos I love solving car problems. ... So, first thing I did was to change engine oil and filter with 5w30. Omo! My car became a smoke machine. I had to add the "stop smoking" to avoid the embarrassment while I thought of what to do.
I decided to try restoring the engine since it doesn't look bad from outside. When the engine was opened, the mechanic was amazed that the engine was completely in shape inside. The cylinder lining was perfect. Crank shaft, metals, pistons, all were in good shape. The top was also intact. The only thing that needed work was the rings. In two days, the engine was back together and running with 5w30 oil and no single smoke. Then came the VTEC problem which was solved by replacing the filter screen in the VTEC solenoid. Then came the VTC problem and that persky p0011 that dealt with me. After replacing VTC solenoid twice, the problem went away. Then the transmission. After replacing the ATF twice without much improvement, I decided to rebuild it. Why would I throw something away without first trying to fix it? That is not me. Call me cheap, I don't care. After putting the tranny back in the car and filling with oil, first start, tranny no gree shift. Second start, car no gree enter drive. I was already sweating from my nyash. Infact, almost the whole day, tranny was severely acting up. But by some magic, after several tests, tranny started behaving. Now, 3mths later, tranny is still as smooth as butter. Victory! Power steering pump was replaced with a tokunbo part and steering became smooth with absolutely no whine or vibration when turning.
About the electrical abuse, there was a strange wire running from the under dash fuse box all the way to the starter in the engine. I knew that wire was not put there by Honda, so I tore it out. As expected, car was no longer able to start. But I noticed the car will start occasionally after pressing the brake pedal randomly. So I looked at the brake pedal and noticed that the small plastic that presses on the brake switch was missing and a piece of paper was in place. It was pressing the switch enough to turn off the brake light but not enough to allow the car start. I removed the paper and constructed a good plastic in its place and care has started every single time since then. - As for the cats, I had to change both O2 sensors. I didn't replace the cat. I simply bypassed it and removed the cat error code for good. - So the steering wheel buttons. I told my electrician to bring out the steering flex reel and of course one of the two flex reel inside is completely cut. Someone diverted the horn signal through one of the intact cables. Once again, I decided to go the cheap route. I decided to solder the broken cables together. I didn't think this would work. My electrician told me I was wasting my time. But I gave him back the cable reel to install and 5mth later, all steering wheel buttons are still working. - AC just needed gas and is still going 5mths later -SRS and Seatbelt light was due to the driver's seatbelt buckle that was spoilt. Just changed it and all light went off. Car is 100% functional now FUEL CONSUMPTION: I filled my tank up and recet my trip counter. When the fuel light came on, I had 382mils on the trip counter. Car continued till 410miles when I decided to go buy fuel (car didn't stop, meaning it still had fuel). I filled it up with 57litres (14.98gal). After calculations, I got 27mpg of pure city driving. That is veeery good for a rebuilt engine. Very few cars here can boast of this mileage. ... So next I want to change the side mirrors to txs side mirrors with signal light and if money enter, I'll upgrade the wheels, upgrade the bumper to DC bumper, and give it a good paint job.
I'M PROUD OF BETTY.  |

Very good decision. Very wicked people. If they don't want neighbors why cant they move to the forest. Olichoke: At times I wonder what will be the gain of mean neighbours. I have one neighbour in my compound that always found it difficult to respond to a neighborly greeting and always frowns her face whenever she sees me and my family. I and my wife decided to finally stop greeting her and she too stopped. We don't talk to ourselves living in the same compound. |

Pls the diction/Phonetics training was it done online?. If yes, pls share the link. I'd love my wife to take same. Thank you Jewessgratitud3: This was exactly the same reason I stopped working on the island.
I'll get to office by latest 8am from mainland to island everyday and close late because as a secretary now you no fit go when chairman still dey office. Even with staff bus, we'll sit in third mainland traffic jam till all my legs and feet are swollen. You'll get home exhausted and useless to yourself.
I couldn't even meet up for weekly church activities. I told God see o it's the nature of my job that is affecting my service to you and started praying for a change of career that will give me time to serve God and give me time for myself.
God led me into teaching line and from there I did a partime program on phonetics and diction courses (, I originally studied office management/ secretarial studies) . After I completed the programme, I left full time teaching and took up partime jobs. Now before 12pm I'm done. I resume 9 am and Latest 1pm Ive closed for the day. Rest well and go for my weekly activities because I'm a chorister so I have to be in church to take praise and worship before sermon commences.
There's Life after work and all employers should know this and give their staff time to rest and recoup energy for the next days work. Stress and exhaustion from work kills.

Boss. Happy New Year. Where have you been? Dropped.series of messages for you on WhatsApp but not delivering at all. How can i reach you sir Conner44: Yup just as I suspected. Those two issues will make your fuel dissappear like smoke in the wind.
Your upstream O2 sensor is the one fixed into the pipe just near your engine's exhaust manifold. Check it's wiring and get a proper replacement to fix that issue.
Then go to the market, ask for any shop where they sell tokumbo honda k24 engines. Ask the seller to remove a thermostat from one of their engine's for sale and allow you buy it then fix it in your engine.
You should see a remarkable improvement with your mpg after doing these. Then don't forget to call up and swear for whoever sold the vehicle to you after disabling the check engine light.
Cheers. |

Pls whats the item called?and what does it do NoNonsense419: Hi, good evening everyone. I would like to share that I recently replaced a part in my car, and after doing so, the error code disappeared and I noticed a significant decrease in fuel consumption. However, after a week, the error codes P0441 and P0455 appeared again, and I noticed that my car is now consuming more fuel. I went back to the electrician, who suggested using a fuel treatment. I am uncertain if this is the correct solution, as I am starting to doubt his advice. I would appreciate any possible solutions or recommendations to address this issue. The car in question is a 2007 Toyota Corolla. |

These are the only documents you need to legalize for the purpose of resident permit application. However, they'll need attestation at the ministry of foreign affairs before going to VFS.
For the wife, in addition ,she'll need to attest her birth certificate or NPC attestation letter, affidavit of marriage and waec/neco. These attestations are needed to authenticate her identity since she must be bearing a new name now as a result of marriage. |
