DIY is fun and you will learn a lot, downside is it is very time consuming and there is the risk of messing things up hehe...

[razor150]

Ang alam ko, yung overdrive ginagamit yan sa highspeed cruising... Para tipid gas and relax.

[glntvr]

No, don't know much. But kung very minor like bulbs sometimes I'd fix it myself.

[glntvr]

For most cars usually naka on na yan by default.

Yes! It was one of the most important rites of passage into manhood for us. Being able to buy your own car and maintaining it.

Try mo muna maghanap na lang ng surplus na carb assembly, minsan kasi wala talagang parts na nabibili na pang carburetor aside sa repair kits na gaskets, o-rings, jet valve lang ang nandun.

 

pwede mo rin i-convert sa toyota carb yan, kelangan lang match ang base. maaring lumakas ang consumption mo sa fuel pag yun ang gamit mo... pwede mo palitan ng mas maliit na jet valve...medyo hihina nga lang ng konti power ng engine mo. yun lang mashare ko.

ON and OFF... ON pag mag overtake OFF pag cruising speed na.

[payatot]

overdrive allows your car to use the lowest gear possible. if your car is a 4AT, it uses the fourth gear if necessary. turning it off would only allow your AT to use the 3rd gear/2nd gear, resulting in high FC.

 

you only turn off your OD if you are paahon, parang dun sa may long stretch ng marcos highway going to baguio.

you don't even have to do this

your transmission will automatically hunt for the necessary lower gear

let's say you have a 5 speed overdrive tranny and you're going up a steep hill

you probably may not even get to 4th gear

and your tranny will just hunt between 2nd and 3rd

 

 

ON and OFF... ON pag mag overtake OFF pag cruising speed na.

you have that backwards?

[glntvr]

Usually you don't have to bother with the over drive switch na. The transmission is smart enough to select the right gears for you. Just step on the gas harder if you want to overtake

Saan kayo nagpapa underwash? magkano? tuwing kailan niyo eto pinapagawa?

[glntvr]

Tried it once palang. Sa Petron Greenhills. Forgot how much na. I think 300 ata? kasama body wash

[dyodyo]

Nearest Gasoline Stations w/ lifters.

Depends kung san ka galing, kung gaano kaputik, lupa, or baha yung dinaanan ng oto.

Pwede naman pa-sprayan mo sa yung ilalim pag pacarwash ka para makabawas ng dumi.

100-150 i think

:thumbsupsmiley:

[Google]

i do it siguro mga once to twice a year depending kung gano kadumi yung ilalim. normally, i do this pag lumulusong sa baha to protect the components from rust.

 

gas stations can do this for you, 100 to 150 pesos ang price.
