suggest you go to an experienced electrician to have it installed.

[noypi^]

I'm just wondering why you still need one and that you are going to use a fog light for it. i just wish you make good use of your fog light and use it as a "real" fog light or even a "rear" fog light to serve its "real" purpose. maybe it's just me.

 

Anyway, for the purpose of discussion....use a relay as the current load wouldn't handle the additional electrical/current load of the fog light. Thicker wires could help as ordinary wires cannot handle the heat that the load emits once the reverse fog lights are working. Go to your suking electrical shop to help you install this to avoid electrical problems. better be safe than sorry, but if you're a DIY guy.....then go for it and good luck

maliliit lang ang wires intended for the FOG light .... you better use thicker wires .... consult an electrician ....

Close the air adjustment, tapos open it 720 degrees or 2 ikot, standard adjustment for all cars

its always best if you have a tachometer to set your idle speed. if the tachometer is very accurate and you just had an oil change the better. use the idle screw to set your idle speed to 800rpms, then using the A/F screw turn it till the engine is running smoothly.

 

sir, dalawa po yung inaadjust dun diba?

 

ano po ba yung idle screw, un ba yung may spring o yung wala?

 

o A/F screw yung may spring?

consult your workshop manual for the location of your Idling and F/A.

 

Cars have different engine. more so. some cars even though they have the same engine. have different carbs from different makers, there are several makers of carbs during the time they were popular.

 

 

youll never get a decent F/A mixture for both idling and revs. for one, you have to make sure your diaphrams are working, vacuums are sealed. Whenever you do adjustment, its SOP to check those things before you thinker with your F/A mixture.

 

 

I dont know what your goal is, but if your looking the F/A the gives you both low torque, and fuel economy on highway runs. then better check your workshop manual.

 

if your looking for a smooth idling. then you might as well go rich on your F/A

 

"Close the air adjustment" basically means to go rich. this is usually done during the adjustment stages for your carb, do u have a workshop manual for your car?

If you're passing a big slow vehicle in a crowded street, lift off your foot from the gas or slow down.

 

The said vehicle could be giving way to another car or a pedestrian.

 

I've seen accidents happen because someone zooms past such vehicle ... only to end up crashing to the other crossing car.

Usually sa mechanic lalo na pag medyo major ang repair na kailangan.

[Mamang Tahimik]

Errr nope, ang alam ko lang gawin na problema sa kotse ay ... magpalit nang flat na gulong.
