Uncle places a call to his buddy cosplay.

uncle: ore mi, ah I need your help. He narrates his ordeal to his friend.

Cosplay: Hand over the phone to the most senior officer at the place and let me speak to them.

Uncle: ok ore mi, thank you.


Cosplay and ipfreely talk for about 5min, and after a while ipfreely starts laughing and cracking jokes over the phone shocked

Uncle is now thinking of his 500 naira card angry but there's nothing he can do. They continue Their Gist until credit runs out, mopol signals Banky3w to let them go with a warning, while he Flags down another Vehicle, a green Volvo without Number plates driven by valarinz. Banky3w smiles mopol smiles as Uncle takes off.

The drive Home was uneventful, and They Get home really exhausted.

Madam Uzuz brings in dinner while they all eat while narrating the events of the day.

I see say you just like to put petrol for fire, must you mention me and Cosplay in the same comment? angry

banky3w:

Lemme continue from here.
Banky3w asks valarinz for vehicle papers and driver's licence. Valarinz provided the licence and told Banky3w that the car has no plates so there is no paper. Banky3w starts counting offence....
Banky3w: offence no 1, driving an unregistered vehicle
Valarinz : it was just imported and it is on transit to dealer stand.
Banky3w : offence no 2, telling a sergeant he does not know what he's saying.
Valarinz : Ha.....
Banky3w : offence no 3, not believing an officer. Valarinz : .............
Banky3w : offence no 4, driving a green Volvo. Don't you know Volvo is not widely used in nigeria? You want to be giving our kazeems headache.
Banky3w : offence no 5, the colour is green.
Banky3w : offence no 6, looking at an officer with contempt.
Banky3w : offence no 7, staying with an officer at a checkpoint.
Banky3w : offence no 8, being clueless and not doing the needful.
Valarinz : Oga please make i see you......
They moves aside,
Valarinz : Oga please take 5k and drop these offences, it won't happen again.
Banky3w : offence no 9, attempting to bribe an officer of the law.
Oya move this car to this place, you're obstructing traffic. Valarinz moves car.....
Banky3w : offence no 10, malicious obedience. Your car has been seized and will be impounded. Leave these checkpoint at once or we will be forced to shoot you.
Valarinz : (walks off while saying....) See you in court.
Banky3w : offence no 11, threatening an officer of the law. grin grin
Banky3w calls a tow truck to move the Green Volvo to the impound lot.

Choi bro, I dey calm down with customer wey don pay me money oo but not for police.

And you seem to be right about most scenarios cos I've been through them

- I've once told a police officer he doesn't know what he's doing and he needs to go learn his job (when he was checking gear serial number as engine number in my S60), didn't beg eventually though, when he took the case to his superiors, they asked which car and the moment he said "Volvo" the oga collected my papers, handed them back to me and asked Me to leave

- an officer has also accused me of driving "ordinary Volvo" and proving stubborn and disobedient, I still no pay oo, it turned to exchange of words just like me and Cosplay dey do am here, told him volvo is what I can afford and he can't afford my tyres

- for driving an unregistered car, all I ever pay is #500 sha

- I can be maliciously obedient too if I'm in a good mood sha

Monday Morning......

uncle checks the time....... Yaaay!!! 7am!! And auditors will be in my department today ayemi te mi bami!

He jumps into the shower.......... Prepares for work..

15mins later he runs out of the house, straight to the car. he meets Readone35L finishing up the car cleaning. He said it's alright it's alright leave it like that I am late for work..... He is about to start the car when nephew protests.... Ah Uncle will you not check the fluid levels?

Uncle: it's true o! Oya oya let's check is quick.

Uncle opens radiator, there is no drop of coolant in the radiator.

Checks the engine oil, there is no drop of oil on the dipstick. He stares at nephew in anger and says you see what your English speaking mechanic has done... ... nephew looks down in disappointment. Oya Bring the remaining engine oil we used to service the generator, and bring water let me pour into the Radiator, I don't have time for all this Americana type of arrangement again.

He pours 1 liter of 20w-50 into the engine, checks the dipstick nothing yet. They look at each other in disbelief. They pour the rest of the oil (half a liter) and it shows up on the low mark. Well at least I can manage it to work like this.

They pour water into the Radiator, it takes almost a full bucket, bubbles a bit and takes another 2 to 3 cups full.

Uncle: dipo will hear from me today.

He closes the bonnet. Then just then remembers he forgot a Vital document in the bedroom. He runs off into the house and gives instruction to nephew to start the car.

Uncle is back in 3mins, and he meets nephew still trying to crank engine...

Uncle: what did you do?

Nephew: Uncle nothing o! It refuses to start.

Uncle: get down jor, common car you don't know how to start.

Uncle: see how to do it, you put the key in, turn the key to ignition, you see all the lights on?

Nephew: yes sir.

Uncle: good now you wait 5secs then start.

Uncle tries his method.... The engine still does not start. grin

Uncle pumps the Gas pedal and continues to start but to no avail. He continues for another 10mins until the battery dies.

Uncle: Young man this your car is fine o!

Uncle: you must be a very careful driver.

Uncle now begins to narrate to taxiappguy how his car that was in "perfect working condition" started misbehaving within a space of 3days......

After all the long narration zoharariel chips in a few words.

uncle enjoys the ride all the way to alausa, thanks taxiappguy and heads to the office.


Kamaru gets to the house with a replacement battery, he inspects the spark plugs, they where wet with engine oil. He replaces them with the old copper spark plugs in the car, He brings out a large 100ah battery and replaces in the engine bay, he instructs Readone35L to start the car, and adds a warning, no leave am o, just de start am till e start.

Nephew: sorry sir.

Kamaru now has 50cl of petrol, he builds a small mound with sand, places the 4 spark plugs on the mound, pours petrol on it and asks for matches.

Readone35L: looks in disbelief, what do you want to do sir? You want to burn them?

Kamaru: hear no be university, nah work wey we learn before dem born you, just de Watch, the car go start.

Readone35L goes into the house and comes back with a pack of matches, passes it to Kamaru, immediately the lit matches gets close, it lights up the sand mound and spark plugs with a small bang. Kamaru goes back to the engine to inspect it, he examines the wiring, and notices his radiator relay has been removed. He shakes his Head and sighs Onyibo..... See wetin come happen now.


5mins later the fire dies down, Kamaru uses a rag to pick up the hot sparkplugs and inserts them one at a time very quickly into the engine. He then asks nephew to start the car. Nephew starts the car and in a few secs the engine is alive and running...... A lot of white smoke fills the air around.

Tue Morning, Uncle checks Fluids with nephew .

Engine oil at the Full mark, coolant filled all the way to the top.

Uncle: wasere Kamaru! he exclaims in delight, my vehicle is back to standard, Readone35L you and that your English-speaking mechanic wanted to confuse me before now. thank God my Village people have decamped.

nephew : scratches his head trying to rationalise the results he is seeing.

Uncle looks at the radiator cap, and notices a thick film of greasy oil under the pressure cap, he says, it seems the fake coolant your friend poured into my radiator is reacting with my system, I will call Kamaru to come and flush it today.
Uncle gets into the car, puts the key in ignition and starts it, engine starts with a lot of difficulty, it finally starts with very light smoke and a missfire...

Uncle: use motor yi ko ti kpe, the work is not yet balanced, Kamaru will still touch the motor small.
He Gets to the office and places a call to Kamaru to come pick the car up.

Kamaru gets to the office.

Uncle: wasere Kamaru, the car has really improved, but it moves like if a spark plug or 2 are not working. Please have a 2nd look at it .
Kamaru takes vehicle back to the workshop, he tells his bois to remove the fuel pump, fuel injectors, throttle body and service them, he replaces the fuel pump with a N1500 replacement part, all the parts are cleaned and installed into the engine.

he starts the car, and the misfire is still there.

he begins to Rev the car till it red-lines multiple times.

he does it over and over again.

But the misfire is still there.

he tells the bois to remove the spark plugs and they notice one of them was dark, they replace with a used one, and start the car again. The misfire is still there.

just then his neighbour LeJeun3 that fixes only range rovers comes his aid.

LeJeun3 : Kamaru what is happening? I have been hearing you Rev this car for the past hour, you are yet to find the issue?

Kamaru: eleyi gidi gan!

LeJeun3 : have you checked the coils?

Kamaru: ah this motor I have been servicing it since it was tokumbo para-para, see how the engine is still clean.

LeJeun3 : see let us use the coils from CarGuideNG's car, he went to the bank, and will not be back for another hour.

Kamaru: oya.

they install all 4 coils from carguideng's toyota Yaris, it was not a perfect match but the sockets did fit. they start the car, and it runs smooth.....

Kamaru: ahh so coil lon se motor yi! Thank you o!

They swap out with the old coils until they discover 2 coils are faulty. Kamaru drives to ladipo with the old coils, he parks the car opposite Gtb. Explorers yells in at him, ogbeni! Owo parking da?

Kamaru: am I running? When I come back I will pay.

Explorers: will you work inside?

Kamaru: No

Explorers: if you will open the bonnet and work, it is 500 for working permit.

Kamaru: I will not work.

Kamaru goes to nndoko plaza on osoro street he meets with his spare part dealer mazdaengineparts.

Mazdaengineparts: Kamaru! Customer welcome o!

Kamaru: no welcome me anything, wetin you do last time no good, nah 2 days I spend for cell because of you, nah my wife Enyinne come bail me with 50,000

mazdaengineparts: no worry, we go counterbalance later.

Kamaru: nah so....you go still chop me again.

Kamaru asks him for 2 coils, he asks nah camry 2.2? He leaves him for 10 minutes and comes back with 2 coils. They negotiate and Kamaru pays 4,000 for the 2 coils and leaves. he gets back to the car and the number plates on Yusuf's car are missing....

GAZZUZZ:
Tue Morning, Uncle checks Fluids with nephew .

Engine oil at the Full mark, coolant filled all the way to the top.

Uncle: wasere Kamaru! he exclaims in delight, my vehicle is back to standard, Readone35L you and that your English-speaking mechanic wanted to confuse me before now. thank God my Village people have decamped.

nephew : scratches his head trying to rationalise the results he is seeing.

Uncle looks at the radiator cap, and notices a thick film of greasy oil under the pressure cap, he says, it seems the fake coolant your friend poured into my radiator is reacting with my system, I will call Kamaru to come and flush it today.
Uncle gets into the car, puts the key in ignition and starts it, engine starts with a lot of difficulty, it finally starts with very light smoke and a missfire...

Uncle: use motor yi ko ti kpe, the work is not yet balanced, Kamaru will still touch the motor small.
He Gets to the office and places a call to Kamaru to come pick the car up.

Kamaru gets to the office.

explorers is nowhere to be found.

he is still dumbfounded when oluwaseunla is passing by.

Oluwaseunla: is this your vehicle?

Kamaru: no, it is for a customer, I came to buy a part with it.

Oluwaseunla points to an office at the end of the road. go to that office, you will see Lag Taskforce there, they removed plates on all the cars for street parking.

Kamaru places a call to yusuf, and explains what happened. Yusuf tells him not to worry that it is a family matter, and he should go there and give the officer in charge the phone.

Kamaru gets there. Explains him self to deedee44, and gives him the phone to talk to to yusuf, they talk for 3mins and yusuf is handed the plates back.

he goes back to the car, installs the coils, as he is doing so, nwizu042 and Marpol approach the working mechanic... owo working permit da?......


After all the wahala of ladipo, he takes the car back to yusuf.

Yusuf uses the car for another 1week, with varying problems he finally replaces the the remaining 2 coils packs.

After getting tired of the almost every other day work on the car, Kamaru tells yusuf he will open the engine and replace the top Gasket. At that point, yusuf decides to sell the car, He is contemplating on how to do it, when he shares the idea of selling the car with ejembi28 his co-worker and he tells him how he sold his problematic car in a couple of hours at a good price.
he directs him to 54srac, Yusuf's cleans up the car and takes it to Kamaru for another session of tweaking (without touching the gasket) , he drives to one of the inspection centers and is met by cardoctor who inspects the car, takes it on a spin and makes him a mouth wittering offer... Kamaru takes the offer and the deal is concluded in 45hours


slamstanlee Buys the car from 54srac and gives it to stacyadams to use on uber. Stacyadams returns the car to factory specs, and the engine knocks in 3days of use.


Uncle gets a Honda accord V6 2010 model, he goes straigh to Kamaru to tropicalize the vehicle and change the engine oil to 20w50.

The engine knocks after 6months of use on his way to ilorin.

the end.

Now let's discuss what happened to both cars? Have you ever been in any of these situations?


the floor is open to every one.

Tropicalise by ensuring that the car never gets to operating temperature on time or even overheat depending on driving conditions. Which increases the stress on the engine via wear and tear coupled with the thick glue called engine oil grade of 20W50... A ticking time bomb

chai...this is so hilarious and rather educating.

one thing for sure, yusuf did not see the "return to factory spec" through, it is expensive and also rewarding, if he had replaced the corroded radiator and also fixed the catalyst just the way it was supposed to be he might still be using the car.
any which way, whenever you decide to return to factory spec, please have the funds to see it through.
