Sportage 98: Overheat Vs Timing ng Barbula(Top Overhaul)

Hey Guys!!

Im Having an issue with my newly purchased 2nd hand Kia Sportage 98 Automatic Transmission na Gas 2.0 DOHC engine. It Runs smoothly pag walang traffic, yung tipong cruising lang ok talaga. Pero once ma traffic nag iiba na ang storya.

Pagnatraffic:

Sinisinok/ngakakaroon ng Tremors/Nanginginig na parang mamatayan ka. Kelangan mo magneutral at magrebolusyon ng Gas. Parang nawawalan din ng hatak/arangkada.

-parang nagiging Diesel ang feeling ng sasakyan, hindi na gas na dapat swabe

After ng mangyari yung panginginig parang umiingay din ang aircon
(medyo na lessen dahil pina palitan ko na ang clutch ng compressor)

Pagka stop mo and park okay nanaman siya pagkatapos

Repair History:

When i purchased it i immediately had the spark plugs replaced with new ones, parang almost top overhaul na pinagawa ko. Pina sikipan ko na rin parts ng taas ng engine, parang tune up na din para gumanda tono ng takbo ng makina. Palit din akong oil and air filter. Tapos
Oil Change, Gear Oil Change and ATF change.
Tumakbo siya ng maayos mga 2 weeks.

When i made a trip to Divisoria doon nag pakita problema, inconsistent performance ever since na.

Sabi ng iba overheat daw problema, subukan ko daw kung madadaan sa coolant (pero wala ng Korean thermostat yun eh)

Sabi naman ng iba Top Overhaul na talaga tono ng Barbula/Valve Tappet. Hindi daw efficient ang pag burn ng gasolina.

Help!!

Parang akong Albularyong nag theorize kung anong sakit nitong sasakyan. Minsan ayos na ayos minsan hindi...

Thanks sa mga sasagot!!!

tatzkiboy,
define pina sikipan parts din ang taas? bergin ulit

? maybe you are talking about valve clearance. if your valve clearance or lash adjustment is too tight, the valves will not close properly when the valve stem expands from the heat of combustion. or maybe you are using wrong plug type or heat range. publish all the things done to your engine. or we will result in a lot of maybes and guessing

balbula not barbula as in valve. sinikipan so valve clearance are not set to standard. its auto lush adjustment, that is probobly thte cause. removing the thermostant will only lead to slow warm up not overheating.

pa diagnose mo nalang sa casa it will save you time and a lot of money...

i would suggest for you to check the following:

Maf/tps sensor check using a ohmmeter if they are within specs
Fuel pump / filter
spark plug cables

Baka yung timing belt wala sa timing marks ang pagkabalik.

Ano ba yung mga ginawa sa engine mo, eto ba:

1. Cylinder head removal for top overhaul.
2. Throttle body clean-up.
3. Intake manifold clean-up.

Maraming errors ang pwedeng mangyari during disassembly/assembly, at tune-up work.

Wala ba talagang problem sa first two weeks after the repair, have you driven a kia Sportage of same model before for comparison. Di ba sya mausok.

Lash Adjusment ginawa at linis and pasikip ng throttle body at ng manifold ginawa.

Thanks sa mga info guys!!

Talked to my mechanic and sabi niya na baka mga senor na dahil kung halos top overhaul na ginawa baka sensors and computers na niya may tama....

Problem is wala siyang gamit for looking into it

Do you guys know of any shop (maliban sa Kia) that you can recommend na kayang tumingin at umayos ng sensor?

Please!!

Hehehe

Thanks!!

tatzkiboy,
have the valve clearance checked again, if it was not overheating before the unsucccessful operation, then the valve adjustments were screwed up. also, check the engine vacuum at the manifold at idle speed the vacuum should be between 17-21 inHg(inches of mercury). if the valve timing were off, it will show on the vacuum gauge. if the intake manifold had a leak, it will also show. if the check engine light is illuminated, the powertrain control module has detected a hard code malfunction and should be read, interpreted and repaired.

Yung overheat at pundidong sensors are usually 'wastebasket alibis' ng mga mekanikong tamad at kulang sa kaalaman.

Lash adjustment sa OHC (overhead cam) engines usually involves shim replacement. It is not like those with OHV (overhead valves) and pushrods na may screw/nut for valve clearance andjustment. When they say lash adjustment ano kaya yung ginawa nila.

Medyo nakaka-jokes din yung "pinasikipan yung throttle body at intake manifold", bakit naman nila ito pasisikipan at paano.

Pero relax lang po maaayos din yan.
