gud day to all carnivaliers/sedoners.its been a long whle since my last post..i hope none of you were caught in the middle of a great flood brought about by ondoy and peping..
i just want to share some thoughts about the issue regarding the oil pump chain.(BTW, mine is sedona'02 LS M/T)..I was alarmed with what i read concerning the OPC issue.so i ask my mechanic what can he say about this.(medyo nakukulitan na rin ata sa kakatanung ko tungkol sa OPC).His thought was,check the "oil light icon" in the panel.once the engine starts,(supposed to be it should be off after about 2-3 secs.) but if it continues to be ON for about 10 secs. or so.,then you should think of replacing the OPC.
fellow tsikoterss,what can you say about this????

Sir way22; thanks again.sa uulitin

sir Diesoline:
Nice to know that you're from baguio.kmusta na pla kau jan.i hope that you and your family were ok after the typoon peping hit baguio city and mountain province.i've read some of your inputs (in this thread) regarding our car.they're very educational especially for me,who has a little knowledge about diesle engines.BTW, i'm from urdaneta,i wonder if si sir mickey177 yung nakikita ko d2,a blue sedona with a plate of 916 ata un.i don't know if my affiliated ata sya to a hospital if front of caltex.kasi mostly nakakasalubong k siya.
sir i just want to know your opinion RE injection pump. what are the indications if the pump needs to be calibrated.the nozzle tips were already calibrated .i noticed kasi sa car ko(sedona'02 LS M/T),tuwing umaga,parang ung pag start ng kuliglig. then after a few seconds siguro mga 30 secs to a minute,medyo nag improve na rin yong idle, (but not reaching the 1000 rpm).pag ni rev ko,don plang nya ma reach yong 1k rpm. then ok na sya the whole day.my concern is starting the engine in the morning.Is that normal sir?how much will it cost for the injection pump calibration.TIA

Hi imperialv, the AC Delco model is S95D31L 90AH, 160RC, CCA730. This model of battery is available in the Philippines. You can check the website of ACDelco. I bought it at S&R, it also available sa mga dealer ng ACDelco, it cost around 6500.
I agree with altec, the wiring hardness is important. The wire of Carnival become brittle and easily lost it contact when you have frequent unplug them during servicing.

[altec]

As stated in page 8-4 of the carnival manual for those with the manual, it says there the electrical system battery is 12V 100AH, and the alternator is 12V 110A. Therefore, any battery less than that will make it underpowered. The alternator can charge a battery up to 110amps, but since your battery capacity is smaller, the battery will discharge faster, causing your alternator to work more frequently. And take note this is standard issue specs. When you accessorize your car (upgrade headlights, upgrade audio/video system, alarm, bigger horn, etc), and you install a smaller battery, then the alternator will even work harder.

[imperialv]

Thank you guys..

Nakabili na ako ng rocket na brand.. Sa casa ko na binili.. Actually ang carnival ko ay gen2... 50% na lang kasi ang capacity kaya pinapalitan ko na just to make sure..

Greetings folks.

Apologies for the delay. I've finished scanning the J3/KV6 manual, that Jabr kindly provided, few months ago. But stuff got in the way and a really bad argument with Globe Broadband resulted in loss of DSL for almost a month.

The manual is mostly about engine/transmission/fuel system and I have packaged it into 7 unrelated groups to get under Yahoo Mail's 10 MB limit.

It was scanned at 150 dpi and saved in JPEG with quality set to 'low', best compromise I can come up between file size and resolution. On my Mac, I can zoom in about 6 times before it starts getting all blocky.

Please PM your e-mail and as soon as I get enough interested parties, I'll send it out.

hello mga sirs,
ask ko lang po kung normal ba na kapag naka ilaw ung panel pati ung aircon,tpos pag bubuksan ung pintuan sa driver side,sabay namamatay ung ilaw sa panel pati ung sa ilaw ng aircon..experience ko lang a while ago coming from the church,mejo madilim na kasi kaya i switched on the lights.then pagdating sa harap ng bahay,napansin ko pag bukas ko ng pinto,sabay nawala ung mga ilaw ng panel at sa aircon.naisip ko baka accident lang ung pagpatay ng ilaw after opening the driver side door.but i tried it twice, thrice, but the same result.what can be the cause of this.patulong naman mga sirs.TIA.....

may aftermarket alarm ba ang carnival mo? normally ganito ang pagkakawire nila. pag bukas mo ng pinto, mag bi blink ang ilaw sa panel, etc. etc.

ganun nga ang napansin ko sir pag bukas ko ng door.nagbliblink ung park lights.pnalagay ko lang kasi sir ung alarm ng sasakyan after namin mabili.any suggestion sir kung ano dapat gawin.

tanong ko na rin sir,RE battery..nbasa ko kasi sa previous thread that N100 dapat and battery ng carnival,,a rocket or atlas brand..is it ok to conclude that regardless of the BRAND as long as it is a N100 battery,as ok siya for our van.meron kasi d2 sa pangasinan ,2,400, mas mura kesa sa mga recommended brand..ang gamit ko kasi ngaun motolite ung enduro,kabibili lang kasi ng dating may ari last july '09.still observing the battery.so far so good pa naman.but i'm having this second thought of buying the N100(GS brand),dahil nga sa pwedeng mangyari kung 3SM lang ang battery.TIA sir.

correct. regardless of the brand, dapat 100AH ang rating ng batt.

bago pa kasi ung batt mo ngaun kaya di pa halata. suggest ko lang magpalit ka na as early as possible. para maiwasan ang problema sa electricals in the future.

share ko lang, over the weekend maintenance ginawa sa van ko. started kasi when charging was failing at may squeaking sound. buy ako batt for testing and yung luma from the prev owner was a motolite enduro, replaced it with an outlast low maintenance 3SM, 90 amps. Hindi kasya yung N100. I just thought this is better than 70amps. Checked the charging mahina talaga pag naka-on na mga accessories. I had it checked sa electrician and said may problema alternator. Brought to an alternator shop, replaced the bearing kasi sira na at diode? After nun oks na charging but there is now a different squeaking sound. Had it checked again sa mechanic found out pasira na din mga belts, replaced the belts and idler bearing/pulley. Was happy cause mas gumanda ang takbo mas responsive na, may effect ba sa takbo pag mahina ang charging?
Anyway, ang masama dito meron nanaman ako naririnig na low pitched squeaking sound. Ano pa kaya ang cause nun? TIA

[john_mkt]

BTW, im looking for this type of cargo seats. Baka meron kayo pwede i-refer.

Nung nabili ko kasi yung van, row seats pero naka fix (improvised) kailangan mo pang pumunta sa ilalim ng van para ma-alis mga screws and totally remove the seats if you need to use the cargo area, napaka-hassle. Mas convienient para sa akin yung pwede i-fold sa sides. TIA

sir john_mkt,i just wonder what is the brand of the belt as the replacemnet of the old belt.i just had an experience last month RE Belt.I replaced the alternator belt(Gates ang brand),idler pulleys, but still the squeaking sound was still there.Until i read a thread of our GURUS: advicing that nothing is better than the original parts.and true enough i replaced the belt with a CONTITECH brand belt.the sound disappears.back read ka lang marami kang matutunan.
check mo rin yung tensioner bearing sa may aircon.that might be the one causing the sound..

[eannemay]

Oo 1970's pa lang me internet na kami. Haha. System glitch perhaps. tagal ko ng nagpopost di ko napansin yan ha. observant ka.

Problema nga dito is, yung kaisa-isang marunong sa kotse sa kanila aalis na. yeah best idea is to have it checked but the question is where?

By the way, eto mga shops na pinagpapagawan ko ng carnival namin:

Suspension: Cruven Crame
Electrical: Rey's Electrical Marikina
Spare parts: Fronte Banawe, Fernandos Auto supply Antipolo, Lourdes Auto supply banawe.

I guess your best bet na me nabibilhan ng parts then dun na din ipapagawa is CASA. I've personally tried Kia Pasig. Ok naman ang service kasi konti nagpapagawa. You'll be surprised sometimes OE parts are cheap. Just in case, look for Marlon.

Thanks thanks so much benchph1
hi came back after months of not posting..the last time i went here, my dad is really hopeless na talaga.. but pinilit nya tyagain tignan yung sasakyan, and together with my brother, they found out na yung "fuse" (sa likod ata to, not really sure) is sunog na. so they had it replaced and voila! naging ok yung sasakyan for a week or 2 rin ata..

then, during one of our trips to manila, the engine just suddenly stopped!!! una parang tumunog sya na malakas na parang sa motor, then nagstop na..hai, sa gitna ng kalsada, along aguinaldo highway. and this happened thrice..to make it short, the culprit daw was the RPM, bumababa.. so we also need to turn off the aircon for some time pa.. and then tinaasan yugn RPM value.. so there, going smooth na naman..

then nagkaroon ng problem naman na parang may whistle sound tuwing istart sya sa umaga.. i forgot na how this was resolved..

then, meron pang yung manibela nagkaproblem, yung kambyo medyo maluwag na, bigla kaming tinirik ulit, un pala napindot yung hold something na hindi naman daw napipindot..

hai! stress!

and just today.. tinirik ulit kami papunta kami ng manila ulit.. the RPM was low again,.ayaw magstart.. may chineck un brother ko sa may ibaba ng manibela.. wires ata un,and sabi nya sunog daw.. so bili kami (fuse daw, 10 and 15amps), and he replaced it.. nagstart naman kaso the glowplug light keeps on flashing.. pinaandar pa rin namin para makarating kami sa relatives namin..

tapos pinacheck namin sa mekaniko/electrician..kaso wala na raw bigla yung glowplug light.. tapos napansin din na once he started the engine, bukas na rin daw engine, na hindi daw dapat ganun.. pero OK na raw so far kasi nga nawala un light.. kaso parang tumigas pa rin daw un brake.. tapos parang may naamoy daw silang sunog na goma.. inopen ung fuse box, mainit daw.. may binunot daw na relay while the engine is on.. then ayun, ang naging problem naman.. AYAW MAG-OFF!! inipit pa daw ung sa may oil (sakal) para lang magoff un sasakyan..ung parklight, di na rin nagana ung LOW< puro HIGH..

ang plan ngayon, pacheck na lang sa KIA mismo, naiwan na sa manila kasi un sasakyan,natakot si mama na iuwi pa dito sa cavite at baka madisgrasya pa kami sa daan, dun sana papacheck.. ang tanong saan plan na rin ni papa ibenta na lang din sana after maayos..
haist..

(sorry for the very long post..)

sir, yung malaking belt CONTITECH and yung sa aircon GATES naman. pa-check ko ulit although tolerable pa naman or baka praning lang ako kasi gastos nanaman kung nagkataon
nag-check ako ng ATF followed the steps sa manual and to my surprise below minimum level na smooth pa naman ang shifting pero bothered na ako according sa manual ATF is dexron IIE or M-III, wala ako makita na ATF na dexron IIE halos lahat dexron III. By searching na net upgraded ATF ang dexron III at backward compatible sya, pwede na kaya dexron III mga sirs? TIA

*jabr, PM replied. Thanks
