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..)

Hi there.

about the falling RPM sypmtom. seems to point to a faulty alternator. ganyan din ang symptom na naranasan ko na pabigay ang alternator nung previous carnival namin.

since papatignan na rin ang alternator, check nio kung 100AH ba ang battery na nakakabit ngayon. kapag mas mababa dun, undercapacity to at makakacause ng problema. standard requirement ng electrical system ng carnival is a 100AH battery.

--------------------------

medyo me pagka tangengot din ung mekanikong tumingin. magtanggal daw ba ng fuse/relay habang umaandar ang makina? di dapat ganun.

tsaka bat pa kelangan ipitin ung oil line something para lang patayin ung makina kung ayaw mamatay? eh pwede naman tanggalin baterya. mas simple mas safe. hahaha. obviously walang idea ung mekaniko na tumingin ng carnival niyo.

kaya pa gawin yan, eannemay.

believe it or not the problems you're encountering on your van does not even come close to what i experienced on our carnival. but i still loved it. kahit na itinirik ako nun ng ilang beses din di ako pinahamak nun. tsaka bago namin binenta un halos lahat ng problema naayos na

*jabr, sir nice meeting you. Salamat po dun sa seats.

Mga bro, ilang liters ba na ATF kailangan pag magpalit? naguguluhan kasi ako sa owners manual, sabi it can hold 2.7quarts but reading the specifications transaxle fluid is 7.6liters. Ilan po nilalagay nyo? TIA

[jabr]

Nice meeting you too sir john!!! Im sure glad to meet fellow tsikoteers who owns kia's too. Too bad that i can't stay long because of work and the missus is having tantrums hehehe.

Hello mga sir, i want to remove the cylinder head covers (2.9 diesel carnival) but have to remove the injection nozzles. Anyone who can knows how to remove them? Wala kc instruction sa manual on how to remove the nozzles. I am afraid I may break them. Can someone in the thread give instruction on how to remove. Thank you in advance.

[yapoy86]

medyo mahigpit yan fittings ng nozzle, standing in the front you can turn the fittings counter clockwise.. after loosening the fittings you can loosen the injector holders.. nakasuksok lang ang injector ng carnival kaya may holder yan.. if you remove the holder first iikot yung injector..

dun naman sa injection pump mahigpit din yan be careful not to damage the radiators sa pag loosen..

pag balik naman you need a helper.. higpitan mo muna yung sa injection pump side tapos yung sa injector tamang higpit lang.. ask the helper to crank the engine.. while cranking loosen one injector fitting to purge the air and let the diesel flow then tighten.. do this on the next 3 injectors.. do this as fast as you can!!

[way22]

Thanks yapoy86. Just for clarification. Yon fitting is that the tubing coming from injection pump to the nozzle. The holder yon ba yon fork like medal that pushing down the nozzle. I had try remove all those, but mahigpit pa rin ang nozzle so I don't know which way to turn clockwise or counter clockwise. Naka-forcefit lang ba yan nozzle. After turning ba ng nozzle. when it came loose automatic ba matatangkal. Again thank you.

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.

*benchph1

Just to clarify. When you say dapat 100AH batt rating, does it mean compact 6SM din like atlas or pwede 3SM na 100AH and medyo mataas ang CCA? Nahihirapan talaga ako maghanap ng Atlas or any compact 6SM for that matter.

I recently bought a b/n alternator kay goodgear since I already had my old alternator repaired (IC) a few months back pero bumigay ulit. Im just keeping my fingers crossed na wag ulit masira alternator ko until such time na makakuha ako ng atlas batt. Sayang naman yung b/n 3SM na outlast
kung papalitan ko agad.

yes yung nga yung mga fittings with tubings kasama yung parang bolt na nag connect ng tubes sa nozzles.. wag mo muna tanggalin yung parang forks na nag hold sa nozzle until naluwagan mo na yung fittings.. pag tanggal na fittings then tanggalin mo na yung nozzle holders.. yung nozzle sinisikwat lang yan.. you can use 2 screw drivers para masikwat mo.. medyo masikip lang yan gawa ng mga dumi na umipit na sa gilid.. pwede mo din ikot yung nozzle back and forth para lumuwag.. kung ayaw mo tanggalin yung nozzle ikot mo na lang 90 degrees para maluwagan mo yung fittings the fuel return fittings.. yun yung parang V na mga tubes..meron yung mga copper o-rings na maliliit be sure not to loose them
