my car care tips and info

have you ever notice oil on your alternator well if you only knew the kind of damage that could do to your alternator i was looking at a stator coil today and realize that the oil formsa coat over the coil and blocks the air from passing freely and inturns cause it to heat up and burn slowly and before you know it you need a new alternator

anyone needs to know the original spark plug the engine uses and the gapping let me know i have a NGK book 2007 edition

[Anil_Sooknanan]

well the term we uses where i work ,is skin effect ,btw thanks for the correct thing .. patato & aloo the same thing once you understand what you eating

I Donot know if this is a problem..but recently i have noticed that my temperture guage takes a long while to reach to the half mark which is normal, the car is a diesel b13, with a cd17 engine it's manual, and i have noticed that when driving on 5th gear the temp. guage goes to the cold mark is that a problem? on mornings it stays on the cold mark.....

Anil share some info. on diesel nah like types of oil to used do you recommend np 50 body oil for the diesel..do you service diesel engine?

[Anil_Sooknanan]

well there are factors you have to look at , your size / core of radator you have , how hard you run your car , if you have a termostart, direct fans .. i don't deal with diesel really much . find they to messy lol i only do servicing and repairs on the alternators and starters that the furthes i go but i have a padna know them engine like the back ah he hand

[SNIPER 3000]

Where is your padna located?

[SNIPER 3000]

It is a 4 core.......well so says the last owner......by the way how do you tell if it is a 4 core or what ever core?
I donot cross 100km very very rear cus i drive with my family mostly.it's more like 80km per hour all the time when it permits,
The car works great i am just concern if running too low a temp. Will be a problem!
The fan is not direct and the termostat....i donot know

[Anil_Sooknanan]

to tell the amount of cores you have to look into the radiator , make sure the engine cool like before you start take the cover off the radiator and look inside you'll see the tubes that run from top to bottom * this applies for only when the radiator cap is fitted directly on top of the radiator itself*. what you have to look at is the amount of tubes you see across( the width of the radiator ) not lenght .. 4 core is pretty big for a cd17 engine . it will not damage anything but may cause you to burn a little more fuel all engines have a operating temperture aprox 1/2 on the guage

[eitech]

^^^1/2 on d gauge is approx what in deggree Celsius?

[SNIPER 3000]

Anil where can i get a manual for these b13 with the cd17 engine?

Oh my little contribution to the thread..if you pressure your tyre and in the morning you notice it flat.it could be you valve seal on the tyre gone!

[Anil_Sooknanan]

um i have to check and see if i hav any of those manuals i think i have one foe the cd20t but that different

[SNIPER 3000]

[Anil_Sooknanan]

eh i got no net for now but i eh dead yet brb it a lil

cool

scanning your b14 using the flashing codes from the check light
it goes like this

some ecu's came with a hole at the top covered with a clear plastic remove it and there is a little screw turn it clockwise for a few seconds and then back anticlockwise and the check light should start blinking

If your ecu does have that hole at the "TOP" i didn't say side lol you can still scan your car all you need is a piece of wire like speaker wire and thing nah .

pull out the cover for the fuse box on the driver side . you'll see the diagnostic port .Yes the 14 pin connector take the wire and jumper the two top right hand side pins and you'll see the check light starts to blink

* ignition must be on

these are the steps and read out

1. Turn the ignition switch on, but do not start the engine. All of the lights in the dash should be on.
2. Turn the 'diagnostic mode selector' screw on the ECU fully clockwise. The check engine light will go out. Wait 5 seconds, then turn the screw fully counter clockwise.
3. The check engine light will then begin to flash the trouble code. (number of long flashes is the 1st digit, number of short flashes is the 2nd digit)
4. To clear all stored codes and turn the check engine light off, turn the screw fully clockwise while it is in diagnostic mode. Wait 5 seconds, then turn the screw fully counter clockwise.
5. To keep the codes stored, simply turn the key off as the check engine
light is flashing and the ECU will keep all stored codes and the check engine light will remain on.

can someone delete this thing

[kerron01]

Delete what and why?

[Anil_Sooknanan]

arite i decide to edit some stuff and bring it back with some new and better info together with pics and stuff
