2cribz:
Oga your engine is burning oil wither from burnt piston top or stuck piston rings caused by carbon build up. Pour 2 litres of nnpc gear oil into the engine.fire it aggresively for 2days or a week,drain out all the oil. It will help unclogg your piston rings and also eash out the engine internals. Its a good process.but works in the long run. When turning in new oil,add stop smoke 2 cans into the engine and thebremaining 4litres of engine oil. The smoke should dissapear within 2 days.if ubchexk your muffler tip,im so sure it will be mad carbon filled/black powder. Youtube is there,type flushing engine using kerosene or gear oil.u will see the process on youtube.

You didn't see where he said if there is?



Nonexisting1:
Venza is V6 and should be 3.5 engine, not 2.0. I'm not sure there is venza with 4 cylinder and even if there is, it should be around 2.5 engine.
And I am letting him there is actually.

There are two oxygen sensors. Upstream and downstream. The Upstream will be right after the exhaust manifold while the downstream will be after the catalyst. The job of these sensors is to measure what comes out of your exhaust manifold and Cat and do a conversion to determine how efficiently they are working.
I am not a Toyota expert but fuel consumption of a car or any vehicle are determine by how many injectors it has. Most Corolla has 4 injectors cos they classify them as compact car. Camry and Venza are classified as full size car are will have 6 injectors. All you have to do is see how many injectors you car use and that should explain it.
Some venza's are 4 plugged oo. Not all venza are 6 plugs.
My neighbors own is a 4 plugs banger.

Nigerians are no longer interested in whatever Tinubu has to offer. They just want Tinubu to take them back to where he met them.
The suffering in Nigeria since he became president has become unbearable
The only Tinubu's achievment is breeding lowlifes who are empty vessels with no substance apart from tribal bigotry and noise making

NwaAmaikpe:
shocked



Village people were probably upset with their house warming so they sent thunder.
But since I was born, till now I have gotten young, I have never heard that thunder kills. Well, lightning does.

And I only know of two instances where people got struck by it.

The first was a couple who were electrocuted to death by lightning while making love on a metal bed in a house with faulty earth insulations.

The second instance was a lady who was struck by lightning while making up by the window during a rainstorm. The cadmium and lead in her brown powder conducted electricity from the lightning and left her with third degree burns.

She was lucky to survive, but suffers from Alopecia and can not grow any hair in her armpits or pubic region till this day because of it.

We must learn to take care of our lives and not take lots of things for granted so we don't end up blaming village people for everything.

Use qualified professionals when building your house.

It is penny-wise, pound-foolish to use Kazeem the auto electrician to wire your house because his price is cheaper.
Because Kazeem the auto electrician will still fight for extra plates of food during the funeral that his quack wiring caused.
It's been a while bro.

You said when you work with an organization, which means you're not new to them and also, is the organization a loan organization where they give their employees loans upto 5years?
Guy calm down. My ex got a car loan from her organisation. The repayment period is 6 years. I am currently on car loan from my organization with a repayment period of 3 years. Even in that three years, It is not deducted from your salary in december.so you take your full payment home each December.

Well, like I've earlier, overspeeding kills, no disputes, but overspeeding isn't the cause of every road accident...


No 1 is perfect when it comes to driving anyway, make God dey protect us as we drive....

Person wey no even move dey get road accident, but when our time is up in this world, death can come in any form that will be unavoidable....
Oga, nobody says it is the cause of every accident. But statistically it is the cause of most accidents. The English no too hard now. Haba.

Never met you but I was hoping to do so someday. You have helped me quite a few times over the phone when I have car issues. Thrice or so if my memory is right. You have left an indelible mark on car talk section of nairaland.

Since yesterday I hv been disturbed by his absence on both his Whatsapp group and nairaland. I actually went to check when last he commented on any thread on nairaland and I silently prayed he was alright. This is sad man. When I bought my car in 2022, he was one person I called a few times as a newbie car owner and he always answered me. RIP champ.
