so bad ah??? yur car is using power window or those normal wind down one??

btw ask big bro and u wad petrol u guys pump for yur car?

u such a nice pal..a shoulder to cry on

i pump vortex 97 gold....

or maybe for time being yc86 can use portable fan lehz

haha ok la....oh..tatz caltex rite?? hm...as for now i'm pumping esso aka mobil's ron 95
with one injection stuff per top up...was wondering if i can pump ron 98 and use tat injection

or just get the injection and to pump shell 98
lolx..tink i'm going crazy

yes that's caltex.

u can definitely pump either...procedure shd be same.

haha but i scare leh...later i pump liaoz something happened to the engine den i die...

sorry but i could not help but notice that the two main contributors to this thread is just between you, Mazda323, and Xtraun.

it is quite funny just to see the two of your avatar keeping alternating.

why don't you guys just call and talk on the phone?

i meant no offense !! but first glance it is really quite funny !!

lolx.. looks like stuck, since the wiper is offset to 45deg..

kinda blocking the view also

still can move fine

hehe... the nasilemak there alot of NUS gals...

my car usin power windows lo... but the motor alittle siao so slow..

mi usin shell v-power

icic...not bad still better den my....wa v-power, ex leh

lolx... it's okay
don't suppose u have the manual...

but u can always pump a higher grade... if the car dun need then just feeding $$ lo

why keep usin the injector cleaner? quite ex i thought...?

eh nope

when my dad bought the car no manual one..eh need to coz to convert the current petrol from un-leaded to leaded petrol...

then mi leh...

heheh... if talk on the fone all night alittle

, like dating like tt...

could talk in msn instead

oh.... only can run leaded? harmful to enviroment leh

can't just change like that?

haha cannot la...if can i would haf done it long ago...each time go pump must add tat...extra $1.70 leh

haha but i scare leh...later i pump liaoz something happened to the engine den i die...

the difference of the two is actually the latter has more addictives in it.

huh meaning??

meaning from my knowledge...98 contains more addictives than the lower grade...hence it shdnt cause ur engine to die juz cos u r using the "better" grade petrol.

98 has a higher ocatane number aka antiknock value

this number can be changed by adding lead, in the form of TEL (tetra-ethyl-lead) to raise the 'burning point' of the fuel so that it can be used in a higher compression ratio engine.

using a higher than recommended is okay, but a lower than recommended will lead to pre-ignition and 'knocking' of the engine where the mixture ignities b4 TDC top dead center is reached

oh...so i better stick to my 95 instead...

hee...come to tin of it..yalor...shd call..but maybe when young..i used to "ken gai" till wee/morning...chatterbox...did it during secondary/NS time..

tin chatting in forum is the "in" thing now....see the richest daughter in Sg...her blog was "advertised" in tommorow.sg and next moment...all the bashing rained on her...till she beuy tahan and migrate her blog.

pei fu pei fu.....teach me some of these tricks one of these days

...interesting fact

save $$$..btw wat's ur recommended petrol grade recommended for ur car huh??

erm..i dunno...coz i dun haf the manual...how to tell?

then either search webbie for ur car's recommended oil or ask around..think all the while u r using 95..shd be ok..

heard vios need minimum 98....$$$ siong lehz

as long as wiper can function shd be ok....attract attention mahz...esp the girls

Edited by Xtraun, 14 November 2005 - 11:09 PM.

tried asking and looking online...can't find....haiz...serious? i still see some vios using 95..ever saw one using 92

opps i mean 95...forget in Sg there's still 92..tot 95 is lowest...

shows how long i never pump in Sg

u hold on a second...i do a search for u on ur car...ur car is which year huh??

haha can can

my is a 1982 model if i'm not wrong

hehe... the nasilemak there alot of NUS gals...

my car usin power windows lo... but the motor alittle siao so slow..

mi usin shell v-power

nus gals..i like the science/business gals...

wahz..shiok got power windows..mi think of installing for mine

UNLEADED FUEL - Can my older model Mazda take unleaded fuel?

R100, RX2, RX3, RX4, RX5, RX-7 (all vehicles with Rotary Engines)
929 - 1983 on
626 - 1983 on
323 wagon - 1983 on
323 except ss model - 1983 on
RX7 - 1979 on
929 wagon - 1982 on
B2000 - 1982 on
E1800/E2000 - 1984 on

What type of fuel does Mazda recommend for it's vehicles?

Early model vehicles designed for Leaded fuel can use Regular Unleaded or Premium Unleaded fuel, but must also use a lead replacement additive to prevent valve seat wear. These additives are usually available from your fuel supplier.

Standard unleaded petrol has a lower octane number of around 91, whereas leaded petrol has an octane number of 96 or higher. The lead compound added is just enough to increase the octane number from around 91 to over 96. Premium unleaded has an octane number of 96, so it has much higher levels of aromatics-as well as benzene-than other fuels. For premium unleaded petrol in Australia, the total aromatic content was 36.4%, with benzene level of 3.3%

hence bro, u can use ron 92 and then the leaded addictive can "upgraded" it to ron 96 which is the grade for ur leaded petrol

den lets say if i use 95 and add the leaded addictive will it upgrade?

from the article, my guess is yes...wahz..lagi better for ur car

haha but use 95 with tat leaded addictive already feeling underpower if use 92 i tink my car die liaoz

wont die..but is equivalent to the leaded u have used donkey yrs ago...juz nice to meet the minimum requirement.

then mi leh...

heheh... if talk on the fone all night alittle , like dating like tt...

could talk in msn instead

heard abt alamak chat

hm...will try the next top up...but wun top up much la...
slowly slowly change

change to higher octance or going to Ron 92??

try going to ron 92...if mix ard nvm one rite??

nvm...cos initially when got my ride was using all the ranges!! 92, 95, 98..etc...trying then

icic...can show me the web u found the news?? wanna show to my mom now

sure..here u go bro

http://www.mazda.com...ticleZoneID=115

okok thankz alot bro...just nice tink tml can go try..haha

anytime bro!! it's good tat we can have some good savings for our car so tat the savings can go to other areas

haha ya lor....wa...my car is SOHC 1.3L no wonder no power!!

sure no power...u never step the gas hard enuff lah

...mine can cheong w most cars...1.0L nia lehz...but definitely lose out on pick up...

wah u all reply so fast... lost track of the topic

not bad u can chiong with other cars... i always feel that all cars are overtaking me unless i go above 3k then have alittle more power

but after installing the vac gauge dun dare to step so much... see the needle go towards 0 heart pain... wallet also pain

i think this is the best fuel saving device~... forget what vauum tank.. superione.. fuel catlyst.. magnet.. E68.. etc

btw...wat's usage of vacuum??

er... vacuum gauges measure the amount of air getting into the engine, which is proportional to the amount of fuel going in.. as the ratio is set by the ecu, or for carb.. the needle setting.. most 'FC' meters are actually vacuum gauges calibrated to read in km/l.

As u step more throttle the meter will move towards 0, and when u release it'll read closer to about -20
the idea is just to keep the reading as high as possible for a given speed.. n u'll Be saving the most fuel..

actually vac gauge same as boost gauge only that Boost can read positive pressure.. so can connect one to ur car... but it won't go above 0

Edited by Yc86, 15 November 2005 - 10:50 AM.

woo sound chim sia...for tat izzit any car also can fix

u can get yc86 to help u to fix one...maybe afterwhich u treat him have a meal

haha would love to la...but 9 mths more so not worth it

buy from auction cheap cheap and after 9 mths, take out and sell

got meh??? hm....perhaps the next ride ba!!

ask yc86....he's experienced...

haha will try to..he now also not online!!

he go "pa toh".....

lol perhaps

or maybe he go for some relax driving ba!!

remember his a/c spoilt...and he enjoys night driving...

oh ya ah...actually i prefer not to on a/c and drive.....firstly car got more power and save fuel

i kw these...but very hot lehz...like in furnace...ouch!

at nite ok la..in the afternoon itz like a bbq pit!!

hehe... for ard $30 can get liao.. quite ok mah

dun mind helping u install foc.. v.easy one once u know where to connect..

but for ur car dun really know where to tap frm... try to find lo

it can also help u diagnose engine probs..

http://www.iwemalpg....acuum_gauge.htm

omg.. sound like a salesman

yah~... in the afternoon drive sooo hot
and the air that comes out of the aircon blower also soo hot.. like sauna inside

but when open the car door.... wahhhh... like going into aircon room

Bro. Juz wondering where u pick up ur automotive skills frm..It's nice that one has the techanical knowledge to DIY. Save the labour $$ & get satisfaction after u've DIY ur own car

Cheers

eh... actually most of the stuff i know are adapted frm aircraft.. like aerodynamics n engine performance.. since hav been interested in aircraft frm young

think they share quite similar mechanics...

DIY 'skills' probably got frm my r/c heli hobby... can say was screwing screws since i was 14

actually i can only do simple stuff ba... within the tools n so-called experience i hav..
but i believe that with the correct tools, anyone can do the job well if they wanted to.

technically think u r ichiban...will definitely "to shi" one of these days...

yah... its the satisfaction after u've DIYed something that keeps it going..

like you've 'brought it up' and watched it grow.... kinda feel proud of it like ur kid

only it doesn't snap back at u after it has grown up..

the only time it snap back at u is when it refuses to work anymore

hehe... for ard $30 can get liao.. quite ok mah

dun mind helping u install foc.. v.easy one once u know where to connect..
but for ur car dun really know where to tap frm... try to find lo

http://www.iwemalpg....acuum_gauge.htm

omg.. sound like a salesman

haha nvm la...let me consider first...maybe i shall see yur project first den tink whether i wanna fix anot..lol

30 bucks can lar...+ u treat bro yc86 a meal nia...

not $$ issue la....i dun wanna get killed by my dad...he dun like to do this kind of things to cars one...anyway now my top priority is to solve the leaking problem

yah~... in the afternoon drive sooo hot
and the air that comes out of the aircon blower also soo hot.. like sauna inside

but when open the car door.... wahhhh... like going into aircon room

aircon has not cut in yet...cld be a few factors...gas, fan, aircon circuit box, etc...

wat kind of leakage?? serious?

how the ron 92??

no lah... dun need 1.. very paiseh

not like i hav alot of experience or some professional

sighs... so sianz.. how's this friday or sat?

btw simon charge $30+ to change brake pads, but must i 'skim' the disc too? another mech tell me must do that.. then total $150+....

might as well change new brake rotors..

hehe... wonder how many pages this topic will go... maybe shd start a new thread? called: Xtraun, mazda323, yC86 chat thread..

30+ bucks for 2 brake pads + labour??

i did skiming too at simon during my inspection time..around that price too.

yes this is XMY thread (Xtraun, Mazda323, yc86)

aiy.... get industrial standard silicon sealant and apply at the joint...

the main windscreen's seal the top joining the roof has cracked..so when ever it rains, water will come in...sian sia...everytime rain gotta faster find cloth and block tat part...

eh top up $20 ron 92...like no diff leh..

iszit portion of it..if small portion dun need change whole door...maybe buy some sealant...save $$..

Then in that case use ron 92...

then hurry go MC when u receive ur pay check
