Problems with my Second Hand Car

[raymundp25]

My car is a 1994 Mitsubishi Lancer EL. The problems are as follows:

1. Pagnagstart sa umaga ay sinisinok. Pag try ko agad patakbuhin ay parang di kumakagat yung gas, parang delayed ang acceleration. Kailangan ko munang bombahin ng gas at painitin ng at least 4 minutes bago maging normal ang accelaration.

2. Nawawala na ang lamig ng aircon. Nagkakaroon ng shaking at vibration na mararamdaman mo sa controls ng aircon.


3. Malakas anf fuel consumption ko pag traffic. Normal ba yun?

HELP!!!! Newbie lang ako sa kotse. I'm a motorcyle rider but my wife is pregnant kaya kailangan may sasakyan na apat ang gulong. Bale second hand ito.

SALAMAT PO... in advance...

For safety reasons when you buy a second hand car have it thorougly checked by a mechanic before you use it, dapat nga before you bought it mas advisable nacheck muna ng trusted mong mechanic para kung may mga sira makakadiscount ka pa ng konti.

Anyhow baka malamig pa lang yung makina kaya may ganun.
Have it tuned-up.
Sa aircon kung mahina ang lamig have it checked.
When you have it checked ask kung nabawasan ang freon, freon kasi di dapat nababawasan sealed yan eh so pag nababawasan it might mean there is a leak somewhere. or kung okay ang freon level it might be kailangan na ng cleaning may mga bara/madumi na.
May vibration sa controls lang ng aircon o sa buong dashboard? kahit tumatakbo na ba meron pa rin?
Kasi kung buong dashboard it might be may sira o may nakalagay na supports na matigas. Although pag may sirang support may particular sound yun.

Thanks for for your prompt reply... ung vibration, sa bandang controls lang. Tapos my matining na tunog pag pinapaandar ko aircon na maririning sa bandang hrapa ng hood. Pag pinapatay ko naman ay nawawala. Means, yung aircon ang sure na culprit. Nawawala rin ung vibration...

Im not entirely sure kung saan galing yung sound na yun pero baka bearing yun sa compressor or yung belts mo worn out na or yung motor fan umiingit. Mas maganda talaga you have it checked sa malapit at trusted mo na service shop. Where are you located ba?

[ruelsdcz]

sir...dami pong dapat macheck sa car nyo esp sa fuel system nya and Tuned-up.

i agree with BERCHIEJ Better po dalhin nyo na sa trusted repair shop or mechanic. mas OK kung ung shop eh may A/C technician din para mabilis ang troubleshooting.

[jaspi11]

dalhin mo na agad s trusted na mekaniko mo....baka dumami pa sira niyan

sakit daw ng lancer yan. dapat daw painitin sa umaga. yung 89 GLX namin ganyan din. yung 2003 MX ng kakilala ko ganyan din. ewan bat yung sa iba matino naman.

sir medyo malakas sa gas talaga lancer compared sa ibang brand. i have a 98 VTI and a 98 GSR. sa dalawa, grabe sa konsumo yung GSR. maganda lang talaga porma kaya ko kini keep.

[mike01]

how about a corolla gli 94? malakas ba sa gas to?

I am located here in Molino Bacoor Cavite.... Dito ko pinapagawa sa Fritzie along molino road...

We have the same problem (1st problem) i'll keep you posted as soon as I figure it out :D

Bro raymundp25, kung sa Aircon problem buti pa punta ka na lang sa CeeJay Aircon shop (its along zapote-alabang road beside Allied bank, near perpetual help and Shell before Uniwide) <magaling talaga sila at ndi ka nila lolokohin> nasa molino ka na eh. Either take the marcos alvarez road or take the jollibee flyover.

your car has a carburator set up right? if so have it check and cleaned, ganyan talaga sakit ng carburator set up pag luma na. dead na yung digital choke nya, and yung sa aircon mo na may matining na tunog baka dis-aligned yung belts or worned out na. the vibrations are normal kung malamig pa makina but if after 10 mins. meron pa rin. pa check mo mga engine supports mo. baka worned out na rin. i also have a 94 el so i know wjhat you mean. ganyan din naging problem the first few months i bought the car. i already addressed all the problems. medyo magastos tlaga ang second hand car maintenance.

re the sinok problem...recently kasi my "classic" ride was also suffering from this. the culprit seems to be the cheapo fuel filter i installed. nung pinalitan ko ng orig, nawala kaagad ung problema. suspetsa ko rin na un din ang source ng backfire.


pero, like the other guys said, pa tune up mo muna; best case is it will solve the problems. worst case, it may uncover more serious problems -- but either way, you'd be on your way to solving your problems B)
