My ciplak vacuum meter always say i floor to much on hot weather despite same displacement on pedal compared to end of year. Hot air seemed to affect the car performance a lot. During my drive: (Vacuum meter installed, accelerate at most 0.2bar unless pickup from stop = 0.1bar) my normal fc = 11.2-11.8km/l PLUS highway fc = 14+km/l When I got the car 3 yrs ago = 12-16km/l (Car still powerful, normally floor to 0.2bar can fly car liao |

wat's the purpose of installing the battery meter on the car? why it's so important to know the voltage of the battery? p/s : my dad bought a old iswara installed with the battery voltage, and i dont know what is this for.

Hello all the sifus here. Need your opinions here
I'm currently driving a 20 year old Saga. Can say the car is very under maintained, only oil change and recently changed the aircond system(because the weather is too hot). Others remain almost untouched for as long as I can remember. Just want to know where I should start to service on this car?? And what engine oil that I should use?? Thanks! |

after driving the 12 year old iswara for a few days , i noticed that the engine started to develop a strange sound . when i accelerate , the car takes along time to rev up compared to my uncle 's 1996 iswara. i heard the 'zik , zik , zik' sound . i think it's the engine 's problem .Is it expensive to fix this?

i wanna save fuel , so I change the gear even the car havent reach the 2.5rpm . so i often use gear -5 altought the car speed is only 60km/h. The engine is not dead and the car is not vibrating too much. But , i noticed the sound of 'zik, zik, zik ' , seems like a bearing sound. I'm wondering will it cause harm to the engine?if i change the gear so quickly ?

QUOTE(markko234 @ Jan 18 2015, 07:58 PM) Hello all the sifus here. Need your opinions here If you're not in a hurry to spend too much on the car, get your hands on a can of BARDAHL engine treatment, pour it in during the next oil change. For an old car, SAE20W50 is suffice. No surprises. Check tyre pressure, make sure it stay above 30, below 40PSi on all time. Ayam usually 34PSi all round, if go long distance belakang will go 32PSi. Drive sensually, FC can cincai beat 12km/l. Try to pay attention to engine sound, whilst going up hill purposely use the wrong gear, like 4th? Try to ehar whether there's klicking sound from the engine. If yes, then need to send workshop retard your ignition timing abit. If you're good at it, release the lug nut that holds the distributor then gradually knock it counter clockwise a lil bit, tighten it back and I'm currently driving a 20 year old Saga. Can say the car is very under maintained, only oil change and recently changed the aircond system(because the weather is too hot). Others remain almost untouched for as long as I can remember. Just want to know where I should start to service on this car?? And what engine oil that I should use?? Thanks! Have fun playing with the fun ORION |

The Zik sound can be the fan belt or pulley bearing. Both not expansive to replace. Send to mechanics to check on your engine firing sequence, sparkplug/plug wire condition, also to make sure air filter is clean. All are cheap to fix. Below 50 for each item.QUOTE(delsoo @ Jan 18 2015, 08:05 PM) i wanna save fuel , so I change the gear even the car havent reach the 2.5rpm . so i often use gear -5 altought the car speed is only 60km/h.

I'm wondering will it cause harm to the engine?if i change the gear so quickly ? Change gear earlier than 2.5krpm doesn't mean fuel save, it means you have not attain enough speed then changed gear oledi. The right load at the right speed, is the crucial part to get better FC. I will never use my 5th gear unless I go beyond 80kph. |
