Mcdreamy15: Is fuel not used to mix gloss paint? Also the mechanic could probably send the panel beater to help him draw fuel for further work |

Ekeoma3650:The bolded is not always the case. Oil and water would only mix if the gasket got bad around the oil and water passage point. The best way to test for a gasket leak is to check for presence of combustion gas in the coolant. As suggested earlier, run a pressure test on your cooling system (including your radiator cap). But I strongly believe you water pump is the culprit cos your fault description looks that of insufficient water flow on high engine demand. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by jceesquare(m): 10:30am On Mar 16, 2023 |
Grupo:Not true. Leaks would also make you top water. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Grupo(m): 6:32pm On Mar 16, 2023 |
Bigyusluv: It your gas is truly low, it means there's a likely leak in your ac system. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by celestial1: 11:47pm On Mar 18, 2023 |
Good day guru in the house, my highlander 2005 steering rank was leaked but it's soft and working fine,I take it to power steering mechanic to repair steering rank but to my surprise the power steering pump didn't pump again and steering is stiff then he told me I have to buy steering pump and I did he fix it steering still stiff,he return the pump and bring another one he fix it still stiff,I don't know what to do,I have been going to his office over 4days now |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 4:09am On Mar 19, 2023 |
celestial1: What you have here is poor diagnosis leading to a lot of guess work. A functional steering pump can easily be tested by hand using ps steering oil before installing in a vehicle . While you will be unable to decipher how much pressure it will produce, you will have fair idea while rotating it. I have never believed in the repair process of seeing racks largely due to the unavailability of genuine replacement kits. New after markets steering racks are available in the market and will be much better off to the foreign used steering racks called tokumbor or the repairs conducted on your current unit which look like a failure. Replace mechanic, replace steering rack and pressure hose with new parts, check your original steering pump by hand and fluid while rotating clockwise to see if it builds up pressure. If it does install back to vehicle , if not replace with a brand new part. This is a capital intensive job. Good luck. 1 Like |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Jamie1000: 5:41am On Mar 19, 2023 |
GAZZUZZ: Real Capital intensive . I once changed 5 steering pump. That thing is annoying and they don't give guarantee. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Kanshi1(m): 6:17am On Mar 19, 2023 |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by dare01: 7:54am On Mar 19, 2023 |
Mcdreamy15: No idea for now |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:49am On Mar 19, 2023 |
Jamie1000: I don't know who does your work, but PS pumps are resilient, takes a lot to wear them out used or new. |
