kanski Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 mid-east bro salamat sa mga tips ha, dagdag ka pa, paano naman yung clutch breaking ba yun tsaka yung engine break? I'm assuming you meant braking. And as far as I know, walang clutch-braking. Pero yung engine-braking, meron. This is how it goes: you down shift and let your engine rev harder, making it it forcibly go slower (parang nag bre-brake ang effect). This is beneficial when you go down a steep slope of a road so that you don't overwork your brakes. However, with the technology of modern brakes now-a-days, engine-braking isn't required anymore. Lalakas lang ang fuel consumption mo. Quote Link to comment
niceNslow.2 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 clutch driving pala yun. so nowadays hindi na advisable yung engine-braking? Quote Link to comment
pinoymuffdiver Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 *use filtered/purified water, its cleaner than tap water*coolant does not "cool"the water, it increases the boiling temp and has anti-rust properties*install an aux fan if you do not already have one, this is helpful during traffic Quote Link to comment

r2specs241 Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 minsan, dapat may alam ka kahit konting engine or electrical toubleshoot, di lang yung maglagay ng tubig sa radiator and change spare tires. Quote Link to comment
niceNslow.2 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 wala reply? saan na kayo?anyway, after ba magchange ng gear pede na irelease yung clutch o dapat tapakan ko pa din while driving, tulad ng sa 3 o 4th o 5th gear? o kaya kapag nagbbrake dapat pa din bang umapak sa clutch o pede na hindi?

niceNslow.2 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 its a must but newbie lang ako kaya hindi Quote Link to comment
niceNslow.2 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 tama ba yung nabasa na after ng change ng gear release na yung clutch? as in fully free na? tapos gas na lang and brake? hindi ba talaga advisable na laging naka-pressed yung clutch kasi masisira yun ? Quote Link to comment
joss Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 paano naman yung magpapagasolina ka, obligado ka bang patayin yung makina o pede na yung umaandar? paano naman yung papatayin mo na yung makina o sasakyan mo, yung nagparking ka na, neutral ba dapat or 1st gear?iwas sa hold up yun kaya pinapapatay ang makina at least ma de delay yung criminal or baka pag ka karga eh tatakbo ka na at least kung patay makina mo ma de delay ka. sa middle east may mga bato sa tabi tabi ng gas pump, kasi pag tumakbo ka babatuhin ka na lang.

yasame0321 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 acetone?a bad idea for me.it was argued and never won the test.you cant squeez the octane from the gasoline and improve the fuel economy.it can even damage some sensors and the injectors.or even contribute to the carbon buildup in the combustion. if your car is built for economy,then just have the proper maintenance and proper driving procedures.if you have a sportscar,then dont expect that you can somehow transform it to an economy car.it was designed for performance anyway.there were no proven ideas such as "more power,less fuel",instead,the fuel is the source of power itself.the more it burns,the faster it gets. just drive properly.no abrupt driving.you can somehow save your fuel. AMEN to that sir... Quote Link to comment
madz_raymund Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 you can get a good surplus electric radiator fan for just 750.. and it really lasts. Quote Link to comment
stiffler Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 for those looking for a replacement radiator punta po kayo evangelista. coming from EDSA turn right, then after the bridge tabi-tabi sila talagang gumagawa. its cheaper and reliable naman. i got mine for a chevy tahoe P5k all copper na from Rey Radiator ata yun. cooler pa its been there for 2 years now. no prob.

yhance Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 replace with copper top Quote Link to comment
johnlove Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 the better and cheper alternative is dalhin nyo sa mga radiator repair shops sa mga kanto. they change the plastic part into metal..copper ata or something.... ginawa ko na ito sa toyota ko and so far, wala naman problema. just make sure that you check the radiator fluid level every now and then and add radiator coolant to the fluid. the cost....P1000.00 at P50.00 na merienda sa tabing tindahan.. Good idea, I'll do that next time. Quote Link to comment
meltrob Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 whatever u do, never use plastic radiator here in p.i. masyadong mainit dito di bagay. pang europe lang ang ganyang klase. Problema- stock cars have plastic top and bottom parts of the radiator. Quote Link to comment
