Do you understand how oil flow works? Do you understand the effect of temperature on oil? Do you understand the concept of ideal mechanical working temperatures?

Oga leave story if the op should do this little things I have suggested he will come back here to thank me , I am a badagry boy I have bought many I say many cars for people from Cotonou (that was our hussle back in the days ) so from the op's explanation and from personal experience my suggestion is not bad

Originalsly:


It has everything to do with poverty..... poverty of the mind. Abeg.... stop proving me right.

you said earlier you know little about cars , I believe in practicals . A car was delivered to me at Ondo state and this car was purchased at Cotonou the driver brought the car and gave to me at Akure . When I started driving the car and switched on the ac it was overheating until I took to my Kazeem , the thermostat was removed the fan was put on permanent and they checked whether the fan was blowing outward by putting a nylon on the condenser it was actually sucking it instead of blowing it away . After the fan was made to blow in the right direction my car temperature became normal I used that particular car for 4 years before selling it off ,from my earlier post I was referring to radiator as condenser my mistake though ,most of all this guys on nairaland forming car gurus know nothing I have actually met some in person and I was disappointed with their misleading post and ads they put up here , you think they know it all but they know nothing I won't mention names but please be guided

If you actually understand the cooling system of a car.....you'd not say this. The engine is meant to operate at a constant temperature irrespective of honor cold region....that's why you have a thermostat....and that's why the coolant doesn't get cooled until a certain temperature and the fan doesn't come on until and certain temperature. And that fan keeps going on and off.
Half the cars with overheating have damaged thermostat that should be replaced but gets yanked out.
And yes...removing the thermostat does damage the engine.....not immediately but overtime. The reason for the range of temperature being maintained at a certain temperature is not just for the engine alone but because the engine oil lubricates best at a certain temperature ...removing your thermostat makes the engine super cool which means less than sterling lubrication which damages the engine. You might not feel the effect that month or year but it surely tells. These stuff are online if you actually want to read them. Yoy should know better than your Kazeem all the time

oga get your facts right . thermostat disconnects the engine from the radiator until it reaches to the sufficient operating temperature. Then afterwards the thermostat adjusts flow of coolant to the radiator.

I know very little about cars but I'm amazed at how so many can resist learning by choosing to remain loudly ignorant. Let us engage.... first... what is the purpose of the fan? Next.... Canada... as I understand you.... the place is cold.. so the fan blows inward to trap the heat in the engine bay. Correct? Is the fan to the front of the car or at the back of the engine bay? If to the front.... is the fan between the radiator and the grille or between the radiator and the engine?... that is.. if the car has radiator sef. If the grille.... then the fan has to blow through the radiator to keep the air trapped. Fine... strong fan. Now the fan is not an a/c.... so it is drawing in ice cold air to blow into the engine compartment to maintain the heat in the engine compartment. Isn't this what you're saying? .... and it makes perfect sense to you. Let's not even discuss what happens when it is hot. Bro.... stop assaulting us with your ignorance and lack of reasoning. Open the windows of your mind.... poverty is not an excuse for not receiving the free knowledge dished out here by GAZZUZZ and others. If you reject it.... fine... not by force.... just don't pollute it.

Oga this has nothing to do with poverty and you can make your point without insults , what the op explained has happened to me , I don't care to know what Gazzuzz thinks he his not Toyota so he should stop forming what is not removing thermostat and making the fan permanent for a 2006 vehicle does not affect the engine only that the fan does overtime .

Sometimes, it's good to keep quiet. My advice and it's free.

Oga say what you are sure of ,I am sure of what I am saying cause this method has worked for me before

ndidibabe:
Where did you get this logic? The Car's manual?

I would assume he bought the car as a tokunbo vehicle , if the car was previously used in a place like Nunavut Canada that is a very cold region it is normal for the polarity of the fan to be blowing reverse so the heat is retained in the engine bay to put the engine at normal temperature cause engine working under the required temperature is at a lot of disadvantage ,you won't compare with a car that was previously used at Victoria British Columbia where the temperature is normal the polarity of the fan will be set to blow outwards to reduce the heat in the engine bay .So for a hot country like naija it is advisable to put the polarity to blow outwards and permanent the fans so the heat in the engine bay is reduce totally , my own two cents ,I have tried it and it has worked for me not once not twice

ndidibabe:
Please keep this delicate advice to yourself. I will never do this!!!!

okay oooo, it is very simple logic , know the direction your fan is blowing in or out , for colder regions it should blow in and for warmer regions it should blow out . Retaining the heat in your engine bay for a warm region will make that temperature gauge go up . I have done this with my cars and I have not regretted till date

HeavenlyBang:



What is this nonsense?

it is not nonsense check whether the fan is blowing in or out ( this can be done by put a nylon on the radiator to know if the fan is normal or blowing in reverse ) the heat the engine is generating should be blown out of the engine bay through the radiator cause or weather here is warm , if it is left it will make the temperature go up and that's why the gauge goes up Na simple logic bro

id4sho:

Stop morning glory, you no go hear. Do and take your drug dose

Oga when I say polarity the fan might be blowing in reverse or normally , and engine operating below the normal temperature is at disadvantage so in colder regions the fan is made to blow in reverse to put the engine at normal temperature it does not go out of the engine bay through the radiator.

ndidibabe:
Please keep this delicate advice to yourself. I will never do this!!!!

this was done to my Avalon when it was having similar issue and I used that car for 4 years before I sold it

ndidibabe:
Please I need urgent advise on this. I just bought the Lexus and it is not up to 3 months. Due to my experience with my old Camry muscle, I am very careful not to get the new car into any overheating mess.

When I start the car early in the morning, in an idle state and turn on the AC, the radiation fan does not spin. I think it should spin immediately the AC is turned on.

If I leave the car idle for thirty minutes and the temperature is even above the half guage, the radiator fan will still not spin.

However, when I drive around, the fan picks and works normally. Spins for a while and cut...

At this point, if I put on the AC, the fan spins but never cut until the AC is turned off.

I am afraid to visit my kazeem even though he is a bit learned and uses diagnostic tools. I call him Kazeem because he advised I remove the thermostat of my old muscle and connect the fan direct which I believe it's what killed the muscle.

Kindly advise.

your car before it was shipped to naija was used in a very cold region , tell your mechanic to remove the thermostat , permanent the fans and also check the polarity of the fan (the temperature gauge will never go beyond that normal position ).

Where is that poster that was misleading the public that oba thank PMB for endorsing a thief and a cultist according to Oshiomhole word to POI, he said the palace don't meddle into politics and Oshiomhole can bear him witness, he prayed for a peace election and thank everyone that come to paid him a visit, also said he will support whom the masses as choosing after election, also referring to PMB always talking about his father whenever he visited him in Ask rock maybe because he once served during PDP administration.

apc trying to get the palace invovled at all cost ,Oshiomole looking for cheap points as usual , I do much respect obaseki any day any time even tony Kabaka that is campaigning against this man the road that leads to his house was tarred by obaseki his boss (Oshiomole ruled for 8 years and did not touch that road)

YorubaLord:


I'm not surprised at all cuz 95% of Nigerians are Gullible afterall. What money did they have prior to being in office? Just like giving N30 to get back N1,000. That's more like it.

They all know Nigerians are such gullible and docile bunch who won't bother to question them regardless. They spend... even take a loan to get political posts knowing they'll embezzle 100 times of whatever they spend.

Of course, the foolish and stupid citizens of Nigeria rather than questioning the corrupt activities of these Miscreants as done in every sane society... they instead hail, praise, adulate and celebrate them in turn of cheap favors at the expense of millions of poor, innocent citizens.

This is Nigeria!

Oga as far as I know politics in Nigeria is not a business venture for the poor man .We all know they embezzle once they get into office (that is not even news anymore ) but to contest and win even a common local government chairman position you have no idea the millions these guys spend it is not what the average Nigerian can afford normally so better know that

YorubaLord:


Just imagine wetin dis fool dey type and y'all wondering why Nigeria can never progress.

So, embezzling, looting and lavishly spraying public funds meant for poor innocent pple on some musician is what you call HUZZLE?

95% of Nigerians are the biggest problems of Nigeria!

Oga calm down , do you think it is every politician that is interested in embezzling some are just after power and I think this man and a few others are like that .You must think contesting for a senatorial seat is cheap . Most of these senators have businesses they were doing before becoming senators ooo

clubbing is not fun anymore compared to 10 years back ,from the hype man hailing people we don’t know to the Dj stopping the music at intervals cause someone bought a particular drink . Then I also noticed everyone is looking at themselves suspiciously . The one that annoys me the most is people that just come there to look at others drinking and dancing they don’t buy anything they just keep looking all through the night

But jokes apart, on what basis is oshiomole campaigning for POI?

I mean this is disgusting. Even Tinubu, doesn't go around campaigning for anyone. He sits back and allow his boys get the job done.

Adams is an embarrassment to men.

Anybody we vote POI for this coming election no get sense.

my broda I tire , but the truth be told POI should not be allowed to contest when he has a case to answer with efcc and they are in court already

Ladycewhy:
you just succeeded in making excuses for them,even though you said you were not making excuses,how sway .If you Nigerians were Zimbabweans una for dey litterally roast each chop and then blame it on poverty.

to me it is more of a Nigerian thingy the average Nigerian is hardened . When you see top government officials occupying good offices perpetrating fraud (most of them do not even need this money they steal cause they are way above average) what do you now expect from a street kid that has no education or job ?

Ladycewhy:
There are victims of capitalism everywhere in the world, say something else .

Dont get me wrong I am not making excuses for hush puppi and his likes , but on the other hand be thankful for the education you have had and that job you have not everyone is so lucky .Nobody was born a fraudster situations and conditions push people into this crimes . I took part in the last census I was surprised at the level of poverty in this country .

Ladycewhy:
Trying so hard to humanise a scammer. Why not talk about the ordeal of the people he scammed? .


The people he scammed are the real victims here, not a criminal puppy. Let's focus more on the lives of the people who he defrauded .

you are here complaining about the real victims ,only if you know the way the activities of most multinationals in this country victimize the average Nigerian daily

.. courtship is just to paint pictures of what you going to face in marriage...
I don't say dating oo

I have heard you, are kids involved in courtship ?Oga courtship and marriage are two different things

awhybliss:
...
Things can have been avoided during courtship...
It's during courtship you will know maybe things can workout or not ...

better don't be deceived marriage s different ball game entirely.you can e gainfully employed during courtship once you get married you lose your job the pressure s different not Everyone can manage it

awhybliss:
Na by force to marry? Am not an advocate for divorce, but the problem isn't about the quarrel l, the problem is from the foundation of the marriage...
You can't have a strong and solid foundation and be facing a heavy quarrel like this during marriage.
The foundation is faulty

i strongly disagree with you , most marriages have challenges they are facing it is your ability to handle this challenges that will make it work . There are accusations of infidelity involved . No man will be so stupid enough to just get go home and start fight his wife cause of mere accusations , there must be some form of truth in it .And what is so difficult for the wife to adjust to erase any form of doubt her husband is having ,I don’t support domestic violence but there is no smoke without fire . And for married couples out there be very mindful of family and friends when it comes to marriage matters many of them feel they are protecting or advising their own person not knowing they are destroying the marriage .lets be guided

Shutt up old man. U allowed ur daughter to marry ur age mate because of money

Wetin him gain if him no reconcile . Is it not better for one old man to be phucking his daughter (atleast it has been legalized with marriage) than for his daughter to be phucking different old men all in the name of prostitution .THIS LIFE NO BALANCE E GET WHY
