Pre re sa erratic fuel guage, Ano muna modelo ng car mo? if ur driving a toyota corolla big body, there is no way you can fix it. Ganyan talaga ang fuel guage ng modelo na yan, sometimes it will go up or down, it depend sa possition ng car mo. but dont wory just depend on the warning light of your fuel guage if your runing out of gas. Re hard starting, if there is no crank maybe its youre electrical system, either relay switch or yung starter mo na ang may deffect. Marami auto electricar shop dyan sa QC and you dont need a expert to fix it up bec minor lang naman yan.

Konsulta ko rin dito yung fuel gauge ko.

As of 7:30pm last night when I was leaving the office, my fuel gauge was still giving me the correct fuel reading, which was a notch below the 1/2 mark. Around 20 minutes later, while cruising along Katipunan Ave., I glanced at the gauge again, only to find that the needle was already pointing to 'Full'. It remained this way until I was already traversing the uphill roads of Antipolo, when I clearly saw the needle moving down and up between the 'Full' and 1/2 marks.

Ganyan pa din siya kaninang umaga; the needle was still pointing to 'Full' as I left home. When I briefly parked on a slanting sidewalk, the needle slid down to the 3/4 mark, then returned to 'Full' nung umarangkada na ako. Traversing Antipolo's downhill roads, gumalaw-galaw ulit yung needle from 'Full' to 1/2. There was a brief moment where the needle pointed to its original position (slightly past the 1/2 mark), pero after one minute balik na naman sa 'Full'.

If anyone asks, my ride is a diesel Mitsubishi Adventure, manual transmission.

Sa fuel gauge problem:

There was once here sa tsikot that had that problem. if i remember correctly wiring on the signal light or wire harness na nag ground affected the gauge.

fuel gauge sensor is like a wounded wire, then ung wiper is nakaconnect sa floater...

eto lang nakita ko sa multicab, kasi di na dumidikit ng maayos sa wire ung wiper...

defective fuel tank float (sbi nga ni radiazone) gastado na un.
about sa engine crank pwedeng defective starter relay, pwede rin contactor ng solenoid, defective ignition switch (gastado na rin) or ung wire from starter to fuse relay box minsan pag luto na ung wire due to wear n tear mahina na magdliver ng + voltage. check wire connection n socket also. kaya mo diy yan simple lang

napasin ko nga rin avatar mo bka mapanaginipan kpa yan mmya hehe

[MasterZerg]

hi ok naman na ung hardstarting ko nasolve nung naglagay cla ng relay kaya 1 click lang ok na...

[MasterZerg]

hi after putting the relay problem was solved pero after a few days parang may naririning akong ingay sa makina parang hangin na continuous na tsuk tsuk na mabilis.after how many days nag initiate start pero once i release the iginition after the crank ng engine mamamatay sya not unless i press on the gas tapos sabay hold ung break para lang di mamatay ung makina.den after that di na sya mamamatay....my auto is a matic na honda esi...dati original problem is nid i turn on ignition ng 3-5 times bago mag initiate ung crank...

previous changes nga pala is that naglagay ng relay and nagpalit ng end joint or somthing sa harap ang servitek. ngayon ko lang kac napansin na after u release the ignition namamatay kasama engine though it cranks this time na originilally it dosent...hope to here from you guys... thanks

Hi guys, baka me tip lang kayo regarding sa recent problem ng auto ko. Pag di ko sya nagagamit for 3-4 days, di ko na ma-start yung makina. Yung battery ko, motolite na kabibili ko lang at wala pang isang buwan. Yung auto ko kakapacheck up ko lang sa CASA (50k checkup) at wala naman silang findings. Pinacharge ko yung battery ko at pag na-start ko na yung engine, nagtry akong disconnect yung positive terminal ng battery to check my alternator, ok naman sya kahit buksan ko yung ilaw, aircon, etc.. Kaso pag di ko ginamit for 3-4 days humihina yung charge ng battery at ayaw ma-start ng engine. Any idea?

Pre i think the battery is the main problem ng car mo, sabi mo kabibili mo lang, maybe may factory deffect yan, Bring it to the nearest motolite sales office for testing and possible for replacement. Usually 2-3 years life spand ng battery at depende sa gamit mo. i currently replace my motolite battery and i use it for 3 years, nag crank pa nga siya pero i replace it na to be sure.
