September 21st, 2008 12:26 PM #1May napansin akong tagas ng langis sa gilid ng head gasket. Pag tinanggal ko ang oil cap, may pressure at tumatalsik din ang langis? Candidate na ba for overhaul oto ko? Top lang or engine overhaul na?
Can you recommend reliable shops or mechanics? Ano usual presyo?
Thanks!

make sure na sa head gasket nga ang tagas.. baka naman sa valve cover lang?? also its not because na may tumatalsik na langis when you open the oil cap eh for overhaul na agad.. even brandnew engines when you open the oil cap may tatalsik talaga na langis and mapapansin mo may pressure din...
sa manual nakasulat "do not open the oil cap while the engine is running" you know why?? kasi tatalsik yung oil...
OT: nung dumating yung brand new kia carens dito sa bahay sa sobrang excited ko nabuksan ko yung oil cap while the engine is running.. (nalimutan ko bawal nga pala) ayun tumalsik yung langis

November 13th, 2008 06:23 AM #7Di pala head gasket kundi valve cover lang. Saan ba pwede magpacompression test at estimate na din. magkano ba labor rates ng top overhaul? for the overhaul kits and materials, ano ba ang mga magandang brands aside from orig toyota? thanks!

November 16th, 2008 11:54 AM #8most talyers can do a compression test.
labor rates will vary depending on where you have it done.
for overhauling kits, the oem toyota kit is the best and if budget allows then use that.

I have decided to have my car overhauled. Naibaba na, its still generally OK. No major scratches or cracks but it needed to be rebored, resleeved and pistons replaced. Maalog na kasi pistons e. Sa Sat ko kukunin.
