Now only you noticed ka? kekekeke. Im more of a reader here at LYN. Not really an active forummer. Count my post.

My car keeps hibernating at the workshop la sky. trying to improve the previous setup. when will I ever get the 'cun'nest setup, donno lar . Pics taken during the diassembly of the head. i was expecting at least some wear and tear to the internal parts, but seems everything is looking good. Gosh, minyak masak, who doesnt doubt them? I know I do.

basically my engine have been stripped down and you can judged the internal parts by yourself. the decision is yours!

it doesn't vapourised on high temp. i have confirmed this by my way of driving. hi revving mostly. the amount of oil remains the same.

oil level remains the same..

engine internal didn't go to the 'dark' side - until today, with pictorial proof.

been hi revving and top speeding at long distance, still, the oil level remains the same. normal drive, also the same.

yes i did. palm oil all the way. no half2. for more info and reviews, just clicks on my blog below.

most would've recommend to check the oil sum gasket first.

i've always treated my engine with semi-synthetic oil before. petronas, mobil, etc, as long as it's a semi. mostly petronas. viscosity? not sure. never took it serious anyway. as long as the engine runs smooth, light, and reliable, then it's fair enough for me. no need to go too technical. it'll mess your head. change every 5000 kms.

i've also use a fully synthetic. my personal opinions, better change it every 5000kms also. dont wait until 10k(actually, even at 8k), coz by then the engine feels heavy already(even if you changed the oil filter at 5k). dont know where the myth fully syn = 10k came from.

minerals, use only twice, dont like it. what's the point if your engine feels heavy and growling.

FC, didn't really took it serious..hehe.by the way that i drive, FC has to be put aside. of coz, lighter engine revs should save your FC a lil bit.

better change first, since it's not in the best shape. but if wanna try the current gasket, also can. but do monitor always. if it's leaking by then, well it's about time to change anyway. if it's not, save money lor..

akihito,

your claims is based on...?

pls, enlighten us.

after exactly 9000 kms,
my engine jam!

later found out that the sawit oil is sticking like glue. most probable solution, overhaul!

no more sawit for me. RnD done! sawit=no good.

now burn money overhauling, again

dont steal anything aaa

weh, sky, let's do the gears..maybe that's something that's holding up the graph.

Added on August 17, 2009, 6:07 pmsorry. have to make a correction here.

there's nothing wrong with the sawit oil. i've got 'august fool' by the mechs. they were joking me around. the failure of the engine was caused by another reason and i dont have to do overhaul at all. just some pranks from the mechs.

i apologise from the previous statements
