Sports / Re: Cristiano Ronaldo's Five Best International Goals by 20pence: 11:35am On Sep 09, 2020
tesppidd:
Hello

It's is not a friendly match, it is a competitive match.
The fact that there are 2 teams involved doesn't make it less of a competitive match.

Even in Messi's goals list it is not listed as a friendly.

If you can count Ronaldo's UEFA Nation's league goals as competitive goals you must count Messi's goal in the super copa as a competitive goal.

You can't be clever by 50 percent.

A competitive match is a match played during a competition/tournament. E.g. during the World Cup, World Cup Qualifiers, COPA America and qualifiers, etc. for South America.

Maybe you can tell us the competion/tournament in which that particular match was played.

Note: I am not interested in Messi - Ronaldo comparison. Just felt to let you know that Messi is yet to score a competitive goal against Brazil. I hope he does in the near future. If you still don't get it after this, then I won't respond to you any further. I wish you all the best.

Didn't even bother to check before but Knew I had to cross check cus I knew you were lying.

Messi has scored 7 competitive goals against top 10 teams.
3 against Uruguay, 3 against Colombia and 1 against Brazil in the 2019 super classico.
Liar.

Besides there are 8 European teams and.only 2 south american teams in the top 10.

It's only natural for Ronaldo to score more.

Hello, Messi has never scored a competitive goal against Brazil. It is one of the things Brazilians taunt him with. The one you refered to was scored on 15th November 2019 in a Friendly Match. Google is your friend.

Anyways, this does not take a way the fact that Messi is a fantastic player.

I think Ronaldo's hat trick against Sweden in 2013 should be on this list. That hat trick fired Portugal into the 2014 World Cup and was the icing on the cake for Ronaldo's Ballon D' Or win that year. The match also kept Zlatan in his place.

service or replace IACV intake air control valve

Oga Gazzuzz, thank you so much. Tried removing the IACV last Saturday (May 5) but bolts had become rusty. Eventually got a direct fit throttle body from Ladipo. It idles much better now. I will keep observing it over the next few days.

Thank you once again.

@ Gazzuzz, please is low idle rpm whenever AC is on normal on a 1998 Toyota Camry?

The car idles between 750 - 850 rpm when it is warm in Park (early morning start up). However, while driving with AC on and I come to a stop at a traffic light, the idle rpm drops to between 550 - 600.

Also, while monitoring the rpm, I observed that when I put on the AC with the vehicle in Park position, the rpm rises to 1000 rpm before dropping to around 700 - 750 rpm after about 15 - 30 seconds. The AC still cools.

asuustrike2009:

He said it in 2016 and it came to pass.it wasn't possible for that to happen but the lord made it come to pass

You still did not get the point. Let me break it down: Trump already said he was going to do it (during his campaigns). That is, before the presidential election were held in November 2016. So, people who followed the campaigns knew this was going to happen if Trump won and he did win. And the campaign promise was fulfilled.

Like you said: "the Lord made it come to pass". I agree with that, but it was not one pastor's prophecy. In fact, it was not Suleiman's prophecy at all, as we (those who followed US presidential elections) already knew it was going to happen after Trump won the election.

If you still do not get it after this, then I will not reply to this any further.

I wish you all the best for 2018.

Prophecy 24 came to pass

It might interest you to know that moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing it (Jerusalem) as the capital of Israel is one of the main campaign policies of Donald Trump on Foreign Policy preparatory to the US presidential election. Trump only fulfilled his campaign promise. It is unfortunate that one man of God now made that a "prophecy".

If you doubt me, please Google Trump's campaign promise on Jerusalem.

Car Talk / Re: ABS Code 39 On 1998 Toyota Camry, Pls Help! by 20pence: 3:00pm On Aug 15, 2017
@ honmusa...thank you so much for your advice. I really appreciate it. The ABS code 39 is gone. I am very happy!!!!! I cleaned the reluctor rings as directed and the wiring (to the extent I checked) appeared okay.

However, another ABS code has re-surfaced. It is ABS code 35. In my lame mind, I think it is still connected to the earlier fault code.

I will like to book an appointment and bring it to your workshop.

kunlerrry:


May I ask. is it in Lagos that you drive this car? do you drive this car everyday?

Yes, I bought it in Lagos and have driven it for the past almost 7 years in Lagos. I can confidently say that it can match almost any tokunbo.

My tricks:
1.) I replace parts with OEM specs, using the part number to ensure I get the exact match replacement parts. Occasionally, I have had to buy and ship the parts from the US.

2.) I dont allow "kazeems" do guess work whenever any issue comes up. I have a car scanner, I scan the codes and diagnose properly. This helps me fix the exact issues.

3.) I dont drive rough. So, I rarely have dents on the car. There have been occasions when people have hit me from behind, but nothing major. In traffic, I dont struggle for road; I allow other drivers "chance" me. The only "dents" on it now are marks my son (while playing) made on its body. They are not obvious, you need to get close to the car to see them.

4.) My engine is still super, perhaps due to maintenance.

5.) A lot of people have begged me to sell the car to them but I have refused. They are usually amazed when I tell them the car is almost 7 years old.

6.) I am not a guru in cars, but I have learnt alot of DIY techniques as regards maintenance of this car.

7.) Above all, I pray for God's safety on the road.

Just to add: my thermostat is still intact, my fans are not direct (they pick as designed by the manufacturers), I dont use water for my radiator, my radiator is still single cell (I did not change it to double), etc, etc.
