Goodday everyone,

my girlfren just bought a 2nd hand kancil last week. so today she manage to get the car fully filled with gas. so after that back home and parked the car for nearly 2hr. she smelled heavy gasoline from the car pouch and found out the gas was dripping out, near the rear left tyre.  can refer to the picture.

may i know what's that? how much to fix this ? can it reduce the gasoline odor inside the car after fixed?

thanks in advance

Thats the fuel filter, its very cheap replacement. I replaced it under rm50, actual price forgot already. The fuel filter might be cracked due to long usage because its made of plastic, or might me the small host connecting to the fuel filter leaking already.

Seems like ur head bengkok oledi based on the symptoms..water tendang because of the leak compression air  from the cylinder..

Buy engine kosong for about 500 will be the easiest n fastest solution..coz jbjl head cannot skim because the combustion chamber oledi low at stocks..

But I sent it to a shop. Did top overhaul. There was some head skimming done according to the receipt hahah. Is it that bad to skim the head? Or maybe he lied and didnt really skim? Idk.

But now all is good and smooth. Hopefully no more overheating.

BTW, where can I get a complete samco hose kit? Not just for the radiator but for all hose. Is it possible?

Thanks!

Hi guys. Long time no post. Hopefully you guys are good and healthy and all that good stuff.

Anyways, kinda need some help. Kinda long story. Hiks.

TL;DR - Car is overheating for the, idk, bazillionth time. Top overhaul?
My car has been overheating a few times since I did the engine transplant (JB-JL, around feb 2014).

Last year, about 4 months after the transplant, the hose (betul ke?), the small L shaped hose thing under the intercooler cracked, and the water in the radiator leaked. After changing all that, all was well again.

Then, somehow a few months after that, temp increased again. No leak this time. Decided to flush radiator, and sent for service to specialist. Pretty much cleaned the inside and the radiator sampai berkilat. And all was well again.

Then about last week, after reaching home from berjimba, as soon as I got out of the car, heard rumbling noises from engine bay. Temperature didnt increase this time. Thought it was the aircond belt, because that thing has been making that similar sound sometimes. Didnt care to check.

Then last night, went to KL and back (live in shah alam), about 2km from home, temp raised again. Stopped, and heard the same noise as last week. Apparently the water in the spare tank was boiling like crazy. Waited till cool, went home.

This morning, checked, all the water was gone. Refilled, let the engine run for awhile (15mins+-) then fan kicked in. So i guess fan is working. Kot.

Im not sure whether this time its the:
-waterpump or
-radiator cap or
-leak again or
-radiator fan.

Conclusion: Is a top overhaul in order? If so, where can I go to do this so I dont get conned? Im a noob.

I have had to stop at the side of the road too many times now, and honestly Im tired of it. Ive been driving slow after flushing the radiator until now simply because I was kinda traumatized by it. Im scared of overheating again. And last night memang betul betul jadi lagi. Very stressful. Im driving a turbo charged car, yet i drive slower than an N/A. This sucks. Please help.

Thanks guys

All the while i come across those non-monotone engine oil .e.g 10W-40, 30W-50, etc...
Then i saw some engine oil from petronas SAE 40 suitable for kancil?

As my dad was using my car while claiming warranty for his own car then he found that the engine oil at minimal level and he went to buy the Petronas SAE 40 and pour into it.

The problem now is it engine oil leaking pretty badly from the head gasket...

So just wondering is the gasket rubber problem or we are not suppose to use SAE40 grade of engine oil?
* Previously was using castrol gtx 20-50/30 50 if im not wrong.

hi guys , I want to install L5 moderno rear bonet and bumper. The question is JPJ got prob or not?

Sae40 for kancil no problem, only ur engine will feel more "berat".
In fact it is recommended to use higher viscosity in old engines to reduce engine makan minyak.

So i guess higher should be around 50? May need to checkout my Kancil coming weekend, as the engine oil leaking under the car...wondering how much would a gasket rubber cost? as im suspecting leaving from the gasket cover...

Last year tukar gasket Head JBJL---RM70
