Diesel with gaso? Ok yan ha. I think some mechanics pour gaso on the carburator if it's hard starting in the morning.

jake and for the info. of everybody,
arl0011 asked his bro. to bring their delica for a check up of the fuel injection system to Betan Calibration.

after some routine checkups by the technician, we pulled down the injectors as this were the ones to be pulled out 1st as part of the system aside from being the easiest to pull out. we did not take out the pump yet as the technician did not see the need for it.

pls. do take note that the technician also found out that the turbo is malfunctioning. when the injectors were pulled out, another technician went on to see and possibly correct what was wrong with the turbo.

so now the injectors were placed on the injector tester and it yielded negative results as according to the technician, it was already too worn out judging from the spray pattern, angle, pressure etc.

at this point, arl0011 bro. hinted if it's posible to return the old nozzle tips to save a little on costs. the technician then advsed him of the pros and cons if it were returned. evenutally he went on to change it.

so new nozzles were installed. this was done on our workshop were clients can easily come in and out to observe the work being done on their fuel injection system.

after installing the injectors, engine cranked up and voila, it was running but wait, there was still a little smoke coming out. after some more tinkering with the turbo, we advised that the turbo be checked by a specialist since it was the one causing the smoke and not the engine nor the injection pump at this point.

"we do not take out the pump just like that because it was smoking. we had to check other sources of the smoke before we decide to take it out since you might only spend for some repair that won't correct the problem at all."

"DAPAT LANG HANAP KA NG KAKILALA MO PARA DI KA MA LOKO NG GAGAWA. " "ALAM MO NAMAN HIRAP MAGTIWALA NGAYON." - we did not build our company overnight to gain the trust of clients. it took us 36 years of hard work, lots of trainings local and international, moolah for investment to be exact for us to reach this point. and not just some shop were it was born overnight only to fly again soon.

I hope this clarifies everything.

to arl0011,
if you feel you are not satisfied with our work. email me in private so we can work out an arrangement that would be benificial to both parties.

Me personally, di ako gumagamit ng flushing kasi may natitira sa loob pag drain ng lumang langis. Yung makina po kasi, may mga parte na malalim at pwedeng mag stay dun ang langis w/ flushing. Pag naglagay ka na ng bagong langis, hahalo ulit yun sa fresh oil mo tapos palalabnawin nya ulit yun thus shortening the life of your fresh oil.

Whith regards to additives, yung mekaniko ng L300 ko dati, may experience sila na may naglagay ng additive tapos naging parang GEL sa oil sump at bumara sa internals. Ang epekto... TAO PO!!! Kumatok ang makina! :lol:

Hitman: Just make sure na susundin mo yung PMS mo. My practice is every 5000 kms. Change oil, palit ng fuel filter at oil filter. Every other change oil po ako nagpapalit ng air filter kasi twice a week ako maglinis ng air filter, may air compressor kasi ako sa bahay.

BTW, DIY po ang ginagawa ko every change oil. Overnight ko ginagawa tapos ijajack ko yung L3 sa opposite side ng oil drain para siguradong lahat ng langis tutulo. Tune up nalang po ang pinagagawa ko sa mekaniko ko every change oil.

Pasensya na po sa mahabang post. :mrgreen:

anong inilalagay mong OIL sa L300 mo. do u use oil treatment
