Do not let mechanic open office for your head. Your car engine is 1ZZ, the original set of ring is not more than 15k which mostly do not come with packing-rings, a set of packing rings is 1k, get gum, preferably arsh color type, your gasket is 1500 naira, get Mobil Quatz oil for 8500 (4 litres) buy him 20 litres of fuel for washing and steaming as the car will have to steam for about an hour after coupling to align moving parts and proper adjustment.
If everything in your engine is still standard, I will advice you adopt a service of a good mechanic and get original parts yourself.
The truth is, Toyota engines are not designed to die just like that, original parts, adequate maintenance and experience mechanic is the key.
The crown shaft of that your engine alone is around 80k, mechanic might want to trikishly talk you into getting another engine knowing that 80% of your engine content are still in perfect State.
All they do is split your engine into top and bottom and sell it as skeleton for huge amount of money.
The main engine is the engine block, the crown shaft and it's metal then rings and piston.
Mostly when the rings are bad and the car start smoking, it doesn't amount to damaged engine, it simply equate to weak rings. Original rings with good mechanic can give you about 2 years of great engine performance. Thank you so much for all the break down. I think what I will do tomorrow now is to talk with a mechanic to help me first check the state of the engine block, crank shaft. If all is good I will follow your advice and get all the listed part myself for ringing. Then negotiate workmanship fee with the mechanic. Atleast before it break down again, would have saved enough to get another car and sell it off or to change into Tokunbo engine later on And the thing is that my engine doesn’t give any unusual noise or sound. Thank you so much sir. I don’t know if you are in Lagos and can recommend any trusted mechanic for me in Lagos too. Imagine so all needed parts are not upto 50k And most mechanic were billing me 150k last for ringing Nawa o Modified: please help me check the attached pics below sir to know if there is any parts or point I omitted. I will enter YouTube to learn more from now till tomorrow too. Thanks in advance sir

If the initial engine has not been tampered with, there chances your engine is still in a standard state. What I mean is the three phases of engine adjustment (Standard, O10 and O20) standard is your crown shaft has never been cut and modified, O10 has been cut and modified to second grade standard performance, O20 is the minimum grade of performance adjustment. Any crown shaft that has been cut to O20 has gotten to the lowest and can not be further ringed or adjusted to perform.
Get a mechanic to check your crown shaft condition, it's metal and your engine block. If these 3 are in good condition, I assure you you can still make as much as 100k from that engine. Just move close to a well experienced and truthful mechanic..
Assuming it is in standard state, would you advise that I ring and keep using or how do I make 100k from it. Although someone said he will ring it for me for 100k but I am not kind of cool with it due to the stories I have read about ringed engine. And most mechanic that I have spoken to usually value the engine at 30-50k at most , although none has open the engine before 1 Like |

Smoke has colours and the colors gives you an idea what is wrong.. A car can smoke due to bad or substandard oil used, and the moment you replace the oil with best match, the smoking stops. But in an obvious indication confirmed through consistent wetness of plugs and shortage of oil and by extension sight of heavy smoke through the exhaust chamber, my brother. That is a case of engine problems. This is exactly the same issue I am facing with my 04 Corolla. It wet 2 plugs (adaptors) had to be put on the two plug caps that wet oil. Right now I have saved up 300k. Hopefully before this month runs out I will have enough to get a Tokunbo engine. My next problem/ worry is now how to get a good engine that has not been worked on |
