    You can go to Amazon.com and search for similar model. Read user reviews and then you can decide.

    Those power banks are nice to have but the problem is, it too can fail at the most inappropriate time. Like any battery, whether you use it or not, it needs to be maintained and it will definitely have a lifespan. Anyway, it's not like you're going to use this everyday so just take note of these things when you choose this option.

    In the last 8 years of driving two A/T vehicles, I only had one unfortunate incident where I got into my car with a dead battery. Long story short, I unintentionally left the headlights on for the whole day. I just used the jumper cable to get power from the car of an office colleague and I've never used the jumper since then.

    Similar to above, I never experienced a dead battery. Owned A/T car for more than 4 years now. I don't have jumper cables. I don't have jump starter. What I do have is a car voltmeter for monitoring and an automatic battery charger-desulfator used for keeping the battery healthy.

    wala ring gamit ang battery charger kung wala kang power source like stopping on faraway provincial roads

    decent jumper cables are less than 1k lang, less pa if DIY.

    Sa bahay ko ginagamit yung battery charger. Kaya sure akong healthy ang battery ko bukod sa fully charged sya.

    By the way, I am not telling anyone to not buy jumper cable or jump starter. I am just sharing my personal experience. Dati kasi inisip ko ring bumili nyan pero more than 4 years na, hindi pa rin ako bumibili.

    What is an automatic battery charger-desulfator?
    4 times na ako namatayan ng battery(3 different cars) hassle sobra have to wait for motolite delivery. Ranging from 1 to 3hrs.
    No jump cables on the car.

    Sulfation occurs in lead–acid batteries when they are subjected to insufficient charging during normal operation. It impedes recharging; sulfate deposits ultimately expand, cracking the plates and destroying the battery. Eventually so much of the battery plate area is unable to supply current that the battery capacity is greatly reduced.

    Example, a 60Ah battery becomes 40Ah na lang due to sulfate deposits. Although the voltage is still above 12V.

    Battery charger will only charge your battery until reported full. In this case, the battery charger will charge your battery until 40Ah only.

    You can get good as new, reconditioned batteries through a process called desulfation. Battery charger-desulfater will recover the original capacity of your battery. For the example above, ibabalik nya to 60Ah ang capacity.

    So this is good to have at home. You can use every weekend. Or every month. Or anytime you want to recondition your battery. This prolongs the life of your battery.

    Ito yung gamit ko:

    Make sure that the rack is dead-center. That should be the basis of all other alignments, namely the front tires and the steering wheel.

    If the rack is at or very near dead-center but the tires and/or the steering wheel aren't, you'll need to have the tie-rod ends adjusted for the tires to comply with alignment. The same with the steering wheel; only adjust it once the rack is already centered.

    puede kung puede. madali nga, e.
    but the question is, as oj says, is that rack and pinion dead center?
    kasi kung hindi, ay lugi ang isang side pag liko. lugi sa turning radius ang isang side.

    P3,500. This is 8 Amps, 7-stage. This is automatic battery charger desulfater with reverse pulse technology.

    Yung CTEK MXS 5.0 costs P4,799 in Lazada. It is just 5 Amps.

    any decent alignment shop can do it for you, sir. for a fee, of course.

    Sir/s,

    Nasira kc yun rear blower motor ko and found out nadamay pati yun blower resistor and yun type D na fuse sa engine fuse box. San ba nakakabili ng brandnew blower resistor and type d na fuse?

    kodakan nyo po ang mga piyesa at pakita nyo sa auto parts store. ilista rin nyo ang rating ng fuses at resistors.

    at baka naman resistor and fuse lang ang nasira at hindi ang motor mismo ?

    Just bring it to a specialized automotive A/C shop. My personal favorite is Frigid Zone, Congressional Ave. branch. They have most of the fast moving parts and can source out the other parts they don't have in their inventory. Their labor charges are also quite cheap.

    The 1st Gen Innova is already a decade old platform so I'm sure they've seen all kinds of A/C defect and failure types on this vehicle.
