Old car , low milage maintenance

[kazer]

Hello,

Just bought a 1999 GSR with 60k milage (legit since kilala ko may ari).

the story, regular ang change oil every 5k , spark plugs are changed last 2010.

for sure : balak ko na mag palit ng timing belt (tama naman po diba).

wondering : spark plugs since kakapalit lang so 50/50 ako


ano pa po ba mga sir ang magandang ipa check ? or palitan ?

Spark plugs are ok na hindi palitan. Papalya naman yan kung may bumigay.

What I would say is, change all fluids, from coolant, ps fluid, brake fluid, engine oil, etc. Standard practice yun for second hand.

from coolant = meaning palinis rads ako para mapalitan .
ps fluid = sorry no idea what is ps
brake fluid = oks pwede to
engine oil = meaning change oil ? hmm kahit na consistent mag pa change oil yung dating may ari ?

PS is power steering fluid.

Palit ka na rin ng transmission oil

Well if you trust the person that sold you the car, pwede hindi na engine oil. I don't trust anyone selling 2nd hand kaya I do those para sure and may basis na ko kung kelan change fluids. O ya, tama pati gear oil (m/t) or atf (a/t) palit na rin.

Yes, if the car is old, baka may build up na sa radiator. Mura lang naman, around 500 to 1000 php Palinis.

regarding change oil, sabi nya naman after 1300km ko na i pa change oil since alaga nya sa change oil every 5k.
kadami palang gastos! hehehe. salamat. keep the informations coming mga sir! na tututo ako salamat!

2500 pala orig na timing belt! san pa kaya mas mura hehe!


btw, pati ba yung 2 pang belts palitin na rin ?
mag kano kaya damage nyang mga fluids na yan?
PS, break ang transmission?

Cguro mas maganda since kilala mo may ari ask mo kung may records sya ng mga maintenance done, if all the fluids were replaced within the past year or 10,000kms then no need to change any of them immediately.

Sa pyesa less than 2k lahat fluids... Labor, mga 1k siguro. 100 per wheel bleeding ng brakes.

Ask the owner na rin sa fuel filter, hose, or anything na pinalitan na Naalala niya.

bawas gastos newly bleed ang breaks pati break fluid bagong palit rin this all this sept!

Don't forget to get the owners manual from him kung hawak pa nya. 100% sure ako andun nakalagay scheduled maintenance para sa 5K, 10K , 20K , etc.

Most of the time this is the very neglected piece of document... andun na lahat ng reference on what to check kadalasan kintatamaran lang ng may ari basahin kaya tanong ng tanong sa mga repair shops on what to do.

Kadalasan dapat sa second hand is automatic na dapat change all fluids... para may point of reference ka kung kailang mo susunod na gagawin based on schedule and by knowing what to schedule at least maayos mo rin target budget mo for preventive maintenance kaysa abutin ka pa ng major problem.

Congrats on your GSR :-)

another question... ang water pump ba dapat agad palitan kasabay ng timing belt? medyo mahal kasi hehe.

[[archie]]

Yes... Mas maganda palitan na para isang labor na lang.

[kazer]

7k orig ag mahal! 3k replacement :|
tama ba ?

[[archie]]

Kunin mo na replacement...

[kazer]

sa mitsu prime ko actually natanong yung e... san ba maganda kumuha nung replacment na pump ?
and ano ba ang ok na brand ?GMB nbabasa ko sa forum e....

[vinj]

GMB... and i don't think GMB should cost 3K. Check mo kay Best Colt.

Baka mabigla ka sa gastos niyan. Timing belt lang palitan mo at record mo yun mileage para next time alam mo kung kelan ka uli magpalit. Hwag na muna palitan yun water pump kung wala naman problem. Then gamitin mo lang yun kotse then observe na kung meron pa uli ibang problem.

Kesa magpalit ka ng water pump. Palit ka na lang spark plug since 2010 pa iyon . Mura lang spark plug. Magulat ka mag improve performance ng engine mo.
