Slapping any spark plugs into any engine, as long as they fit. Artificially raising the suspension of a regular passenger car. Inflating tyres up to 60psi, despite manufacturer's limit. Wing a conservative 28psi. Sealing a rocker cover with "gum", when a rubber or cork gasket is specified. Stacking multiple head gasket. Replacing cylinder heads, and reusing the old head bolts, tightened without a torque wrench. Fitting a carburettor to an engine, junking the fuel injection just because it had a running fault. Using plain water in an Engine, despite the manufacturer recommending a 50/50 coolant / water mix. Washing the oil filter, when it should be replaced. Running converted carburettor engines without air filters. Fitting different size wheels and tyres on the SAME axle. Fitting different size tyres front and rear on a vehicle with permanent 4WD. Replacing a timing belt, yet reusing old tensioner, idler and water pump (if applicable). Disconnecting the rear brakes, rather than replace leaking wheel cylinders or calipers. Cutting and joining wires to bypass sensors / security systems, rather than fix the problem. Welding broken leaf springs. Running Abro ATF in EVERY auto tranny, regardless of manufacturer's recommendation. Refilling axles and manual gearboxes with 20W-50 ENGINE oil. Drilling holes in wheels to make them fit different axles and hubs. Welding the viscous clutch of a mechanical fan so it runs at full speed, even when the engine is cold. Welding broken drive shafts. Welding broken propshafts. Welding suspension arms. 10 Likes 1 Share |

1. Recommending the use of Mobile 1 (0w40 graded) engine oil as the best oil for your car irrespective of what the manufacture recommends even when they (car manufacturer) had taken the pains to write the recommended oil all over the place... 2. Servicing your car injectors ( I wondered why @Siena did not remember this one. lol)... 3. Telling you to ignore warning signs on your dashboard that it is normal for a car to have such lights running and also saying that "those things na for oyibo people, e no dey work for Nigeria"... 4. Using 20w50 graded engine oil to service your car's engine against the car manufacturer's recommendation, while telling you that 'the recommended oil na for their weather wey cold, we for Nigeria na this one (20w50) na im everybody dey use. Na im I even use service Commissioner new jeep now now sef)... 1 Like |

Telling you "no problem oga, I go fix am" after explaining what the problem of your car is without clear explanation of what he is going to do. After suppressing the problem and you ask him so what caused that his answer will always be (while giving you that how much will you pay smile) "na normal problem but don't worry it won't happen again" Tomorrow again get ready to call him and the first thing he would say when you tell him the problem has occured again is "hmmm" meaning hmm my cash cow don arrive. 3 Likes |

A kazeem is one who changes the oil and filter in your car and doesn't know he has to reset the trip meter afterwards. |

- Emptying 5 whole liters of engine oil when the engine takes oly 4.2 litres. Because i need fuel from the last week fuel scarcity, i took my car which was due for oil change to total filling station in Zone 6 Abj, i used the guise to buy fuel after but had to leave the car inside as they were not servicing then. I came back and found the guy poured all 5 litres in. I dont know how to go about reducing it before i lose my engine. -Replacing golf mk3 rear suspension and replacing with golf mk2 or someother. -Removing stabilizer linkages entirely They say oga e no get use we dey remove am if e dey make noise. -Installing double cell radiator on every car with an over heating problem for proper cooling -Installing cut pieces of tyre rubber in place of bushings -Its not enough to use 20W50 on every car, they must add oil treatment, ha! 4 Likes |

And i specifically told him not to pour all but he knows better than i do, na Kazeem im still be.
