Your problem is patience bro. If you take the route you wanna go, you may regret it. Stick to Anty Radu advice. Take it to her shop or wait for whatever appointment you have with her. Chikena!! Don't be confused and forget all those promises and facts they are giving you from the other side.

He said it will work. Besides, I haven't concluded yet. I still wanna take it to Radautoworks, I'm only skeptical about if I'll be glad I did or not, at the end of the day.

My mindset has always been that, a good toks engine will be always be better than fixing an old one that has a bad coil , a bad Compressor, maybe a bad Condenser sef.

Those are not parts of an engine.

Sir, elaborate, sir!

Not every complete engine gets to come with AC compressor. In most cases seller might insist on some additional cash to have it come with it. Sometimes you might just be a lucky chap wink

Ah, it's Naija made. The 1999 American ones had smallest engine size 1.9L that's why I was confused for a second.

Yeah. I should have said for Naija market not Naija made. Does that mean it was side converted then?
