  1. There used to be a piece of leather with holes you had to warp it up then warp a string around so it stay put but lately I don't see them anymore that thing I remember used to run long time most others just disintegrate or becomes thick and loose after getting in contact with oil...
  2. It would be better to remove oil and check it again I think the guy applied 6 cylinder so toss 6 liter principle
  3. Overfilling almost always leads to premature seal failure and increased zeal in fuel consumption 1 cm in many cars means 250 ml to half liter Better say to measure is warm up then let it sit for 30 other 40 minutes Or more precise one is to leave it overnight and check 1st thing in morning
  4. you can always make your own...
  5. That attitude is always much appreciated here occasionally 😂
  6. have a friend who has this habit of sleeping on the wheels till now has totaled 4 cars and a van lately he just parks and sleeps on the side of roads Nothing beats the good ole sleep you know 😂
  7. Guess you might have to import them I have not seen them not even in used market...have seen many crazy sizes but not a white walled one...
  8. Many maybe countless times I have called or talked or brought in technicians to brainstorm the problems I have encountered which have stomped me some even made me think what have got myself into . if asking for help is being stupid then my friend you really have to reassess the values on which you make those assumptions Where do you get those are you talking about Haynes then forget it they are as generic as my technical school books they miss many aspects which are only covered in factory service manuals
  9. Fortuners here are petrol with 2tr and gr engines that is of diesel...
  10. Usually it does not have to be years or kms as far as I can see there is always one time or other for some reason the cooling system has to be opened some times for Access to some other part or to clear a seeping pipe so mostly your coolent is being mixed with new coolent from time to time...as a general rule don't fix something that is not broken....
  11. It's usually the outer one as most of the inners are not serviceable one...when the inner one goes bad then it's better to toss in another one....
  12. Getting a car is like getting married..if you investigate nicely and look around clearly then you might end up with a nice beautiful and respectable one. if done hastly then you might end up with a whore....😂 For some it takes much longer to find the suitable one...
  13. We use petrol if it doesn't go then we use more petrol then rub like crazy...it goes good if not then we use brake fluid and rub like anything...
  14. I hope safety was practiced but no one can fight fate...loss of life is very devastating...
  15. Then I should advise you to take it to someone one who does this for a living as they will handle this situation with more focus and better end result...
  16. Just toss in a new aftermarket radiator and get on with your life....
  17. I had advised earlier to take out the sample and start searching you might stumble upon it. if all luck aligned correct and the monkey isn't constipated...
  18. Now if you tossing insurance to pay for it then better give it to them for work as you opt to get money and fix yourself WILL cost you money out from YOUR POCKET too...
  19. It's just a fender get another clean one with same color and toss it in simple...
  20. They usually give so less money that you end up putting from your own pocket better give it to insurance guys....
  21. It could be fuel pump or air metering sensors...if truly only rear damage is there and fixed professionally then it should last like any other car of same age...
  22. The ones who get smeared on bonnet and front glass can be cleaned but also always take a look in through the grill coz the ones which get on the condenser can have the tendency to block air circulation...
  23. Definitely not my cup of tea but surely I could pull some strings and get it done...there is a old Baloch guy who does only carburetor rebuild and tuning I had my Tercel and few other cars through him...
