going uphill

[badkuk]

Hi All!

Napapansin ko lang when i'm going up a flyover, e.g Buendia - EDSA, parang mabagal remisponde ung ride ko, i.e. me delay from the time i step on the gas and when the car actually goes faster.

My ride is an old 89 Corolla 1.3L XL, and i was at 3rd gear, doing around 40-50kph. More troubling is ung speedometer would suggest i'm going 60-80kph, pero feeling ko hinde eh. Question ko:

-- me problem ba sa oto? Kakapalit ko lang naman ng clutch plate about four months ago

-- me problem be ung drayber?
:confused:

[ssaloon]

baka faulty speedometer cable or pwede ring mali lang pagkatimpla sa incline at nahihirapan yung makina?

Naka tresera ka ( 3rd gear ) uphill from a 1.3 ?? Thats maybe the answer unless naka buelo ka from a faster speed sa plain road then uphill .

i was doing about 50-60 lang...lagi kasing ma mabagal na truck/FX sa unahan....pag pinilit ko kc sa segunda e iiyak ung gulong ko sa shift shock B).

[GlennSter]

what rpm!?madaming pwedeng maging factors eh..pwedeng masyadong mababa ang rpm mo dahil wala kang bwelo....

[badkuk]

GlennSter:what rpm!?

wala pong tachometer ryd ko B).

sir,
baka kelangan mo na ng change ang oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter and spark plugs..

based on experience sa liteace namin, nung pinalitan ng erpat ko ng maling spark plug eh halos di na maka-akyat sa mga matitirik na lugar.. kasi nagtitipid sya kaya murang spark plugs lang palit niya... kaya ayun after 1 week eh pinalitan ng mas mahal na spark plugs like bosch or denso... at back to normal na ulit speed nya

[badkuk]

actually pina tune up namin yan last May...denso rin naman gamit namin na sparks...hmm, come to think of it, medyo luma na ung battery

buti kayang umakyat ng oto mo at 3rd at that speed. downshift mo sa segunda, masyado mahina hatak pag tersera talga. Diesel rides lang ang kaya umaakyat ng 3rd gear. Sa gas engines, 2nd gear talaga para makabwelo ka. Kung umiiyak naman gulong mo, paadjust mo clutch mo.

you need another tune up,change oil etc..

[HBOY]

last may?.. another tune up is in order nga....

and do go up in second gear if you are only around 40-50kph. hirap yan sa 3rd.

[rodcarolino]

baka naman masyadong pinipilit na umakyat sa 3rd gear tapos naka full trothel, syempre mahihirapan talaga makina mo paakyat dahil sa air-fuel ratio, nalulunod ang carb kaya hirap

[k-cey]

was new clutch adjusted properly

[likot]

what gasoline are you using?? merong gasoline na nag iisip pa bago bumirit

Unless marinig mo na "umakyat" rpm (not necessarily the "tono", kasi mag-iba rin yun depende sa opening ng throttle) without a corresponding increase in speed, the car is probably fine.

Pag underpowered talaga yung kotse ganun talaga, bihirang umarangkada, lalo na pag naka-on ang A/C.
