Good morning all,
I use opel vectra B 1995. I was coming from Akure in ondo and my car just stopped,I did all I can but to no avail. I was told it is the kick that has a problem so I got a rewire to fix the kick the rewire couldn't find any problem with the kick so he replaced it back and the car kicked again. But after driving for 3min the car stopped and refused to kick at all.
I got the car to a mechanic and was told the engine has knock from under. The mechanic did all he could do but the engine has refused to role so that the propeller can be remove from the converter. He has since remove the sumbor trying to remove the metal from the rod still the engine has refused to role.
Please, I need help.
Thanks.

Good day all,

Just want to say a very big thank you to all that contribute to the solution to my car. Am very grateful.

I went online this morning and ask Google question. Some reasons were given which include Therottle position sensor coupled with some other reasons I got b4 like spark plug wire, air flow metre. which I have them from the previous engine. I change the air flow meter that was bad, the therottle position sensor, and plug wires.

The moment I start the engine it answer at once and run very well.

Thank u all.

Bode.

Thank u sir,

I was planning to call the mechanic to remove the injector manifold to see if there is water in it. And,

Pls how do I know if an air flow meter is good or bad?.Co's the one in my car as been damage and want to get another tomorrow.

Thanks.

Thank u,

I agree I mess up. I enter a mod that half the height of the car was in the mod. So it enter the engine dat is y I washed it.

I believe the car wash guy will know where to cover.

The problem now is the car cannot move and how. to get the scanner is another problem. I live in ondo town do know if the scanner is here.

Hi,
Engn. Ikenna and other forum member,

I use Opel vectra B, 1999 model.
my engine was very dirty So I went to a car wash and wash the engine.
After the wash the engine start but was not sounding well or moving as it used to. The plugs was removed one after The other and The water was blew out. After that The engine refused to start and when it managed to start after much effort it will be vibrating but after 5-10minutes it will be stable but the moment I engage the gear to R or D( reverse or Drive) the engine will go off.

I have done all I can for 10 days now the car will not start at first kick and if it manage to start after much effort it will not move a yard before going off.

Please, I need help.

Thanks.
