galant vr v6- "sinisinok"

**GlennSter** · May 16th, 2005 11:36 PM

consider these:

car is galant vr v6
changed spark plugs to platinum
replaced leaking spark plug oil seals
changed oil to semi synthetic
replaced fouled high tension wire
cleaned the "entrance" of the throttle body
cleaned the sludge inside the valve cover
cleaned the air filter
cleaned MAF sensor (binugahan lang ng konting pressure ng hangin yung dinadaanan ng hangin)
replaced oil filter
replaced fuel filter
used unleaded
shifted to xcs(petron)
shifted to super premium (shell)

and still, sinisnok pag malamig pa ang makina.i thought the throttle body was just dirty...so we cleaned the entrance.should we dismount the whole thing and clean it?the mechanic said na biritin ko lang nang biritin para mawala yung dumi..ive been making birit ever since...nagiging ok siya.pero pag lumamig nanaman ang makina...ayun nanaman...*hiccup* *hiccup*

pero pag mainit na ang makina. ok na ang takbo niya..swabe na.

ano ba yung mga lines sa ibabaw ng throttle body?possible kaya na magbara ang mga yun?

ano pa ba ang dapat kong linisin?

haay haay haay

thanks in advance

parang ganyan din yata ang nangyari sa vrv6 namin dati. pa-check mo mabuti yung mga high tension cables kung meron leak, kung ok lahat, baka yung parang distributor na ang may tama (ano bang tawag dito? wala kasing distributor ang vr, ito yung parang pinalit na sa distributor, basta parang rectangular block sya).

ohhh...panong pag check ang kailangan gawin?pag mainit na..chaka naging ok ang sayo?

pinalitan mo ba?how imuch damage?

meron yatang equipment to check kung meron leakage yung high tension wires. makikita mong meron lumalabas na spark sa insulation.

actually, nagkamali yung casa sa pagdiagnose nung una. pinalitan nila agad yung parang 'distributor', around 4K+ dati yun (1994-95). pero the next morning, bumalik yung sakit so balik din ako sa casa. dun palang nila na-check na meron leak yung high tension wire, yung shortest yung may leak. e kelangan daw buong set ng high tension wires ang bibilhin dahil wala daw tingi nun, e 7 pcs yun tapos yung shortest lang ang may problema kaya nagreklamo ako. nagkamali na nga sila sa pagdiagnose! ang ginawa nung mechanic, kumuha nalang sya ng high tension wire sa another vr dun na meron front collission. yun ang ikinabit sa akin. buti nalang hindi pa nila naitatapon yung lumang part ko. ni-refund nila yung bayad ko sa part, tapos hindi na ako pinagbayad dun sa high tension wire.

Uhm... have your tried putting Biodiesel? Hehehe :P

Have you tried asking the opinion of some Mitsu mechanics? I checked yung sa VR ng Tito ko but it doesnt seem to manifest the problem.

Some other things to consider:
- vacuum leaks
- a sensor that needs replacement (i'm not familiar with Mitsus but there might be other sensors that need to be checked)... is there any diagnostic tool that can do this?
- try a HT wire from a VR thats running ok.

changed spark plugs to platinum

nung nagpalit ka to platinums... dun ba nagsimula? or before pa?

the weird thing kasi is....it gets better as the car warms up.

nawawala din naman pag mainit na eh....we were thinking na kung sira talaga ang HT wires..kung may na hugot na tubes...continuous ang pag hiccup niya kahit mainit na ang makina...

so i was thinking..something's clogged pag lumalamig..tapos nawawala pag mainit na...

mazda....that i am not so sure.kasi pagkakuha ko, mainit na yung makina..tapos pag uwi ko, tune up agad.
