richforever123: If you do not have the engines oil change history. Safest thing to do is 20w50 . Total quarts 5000 is a good brand. 2000miles is safe oil drain interval for that oil type 4 Likes |

Hello GAZZUZZ, Thanks for your recommendation the other day, I finally changed my engine oil and spark plus, it was done by a Kazeem However, after he made the change, the car has not been the same, it refuses to start most of the time, even when it starts, it moves a few centimetres and stops and does not accelerate properly most of the time, I am so furious with this Kazeem because I just bought the car and have been using it for weeks without any single problems until he came to change the spark plugs and oil, I called him immediately and when he came, he was asking for 5000 to change the fuel pump, I had to order him out of my compound, I am looking to go DIY for now Please what do you think the problem is Maybe he didn't change the Spark Plug properly (please consider the fact that the car was working properly before the fool came to change the spark plugs) or the fuel pump is actually bad, where do I start this investigation from Your suggestion will be appreciated 1 Like |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:51am On Dec 10, 2020 |
Phils: Toyota gives a variation of engine oils to use, based on ambient temperature. My recommendation is 5w30 and not 0w20. 2 Likes |
