Khyber - Performance after Complete Engine Overhaul

[speedster_101]

shabaash..

bravo

standing ovation

what sort of mental retardation makes one think that double gasketing is the right thing to do?

I changed my mechanic three years ago and this one was also going for two gaskets. In fact he brought them and I returned them. I think all of them follow the same code, the origin of which is still unknown to mankind

There is a very strange issue with my car.
The drive is very smooth at all the speeds, but after turning, when the wheels get straight, the front left wheel wobbles for sometime and then the wobbling vanishes. Same is the case if the car passes through a pot hole. What can be the issue?
The CV joints are changed a month ago but this issue persists.

Installed green colour LEDs in speedometer. Green is the default colour of Suzuki Khyber speedometer.

That looks awesome, always loved the squarish speedometer font of Khyber as a kid, still do.

The front shock absorbers of my Khyber were almost finished as car used to nose dive on hard braking. Also during turns, it used to shift weight on one side.
Bought KYB, made in Malaysia shocks for Rs. 8,000/-. They have good dampening performance and the drive is comfortable. Other options were Gabriel (agri autos) for Rs. 7,500/- Made in Pakistan and Aisian for Rs. 5,500/- Made in China.

My mechanic had done the same thing when my engine was badly overheated it lasted around 30ks

Nice
From where you intstalled it?

NiceFrom where you intstalled it?

A local electrician shop near by house in Rawalpindi.
Only two LEDs need to be replaced. Each costs around Rs. 80/-

[izharulhak]

Means that it can done easily by any good electrician.
Second is that my khyber is consuming oil n giving smoke will it resolve with ring or full overhaul is must?

[speedster_101]

You will be able to analyze better after compression test.

[izharulhak]

Any mechanic can do it?

Replaced the battery of my Khyber.
The AGS GL 50 battery was purchased in March 2016.
Lasted more than 4 years.

This time purchased a bit bigger battery AGS 65, by paying Rs.5500/- along with old battery.
It has 13 plates per cell. The terminals of this battery are thick, so had to change the clamps as well.

This time I have purchased KNK-OEM CV joints for Rs.2900/- a pair. They are also Chinese and my mechanic was praising them as they come with 6 month warranty. Let's see how much they last.Also changed the gear oil and axle seals. Poured in 2.3L of 75W-85 GL-4 gear oil.

These KNK-OEM are worst quality CV Joints. Must be avoided.
In my car, Sherry CV joints used to last more than three years.
These KNK ones failed too early. The right one failed just after three months (after 4000 Kms)
Replaced it in warranty.
Now the left one is making clicking noise. Total mileage 7000 Kms. Can't be changed in warranty now as 8 months passed.
Will be replacing both with Sherry.

I have installed new Temp. sending unit in my Khyber but even then, my needle always stays at same place. Around 40%. Wether hot or cold

I think it is not giving me accurate;getting your point that might be due to aging factor, resistance of the wire has increased, thus unable to reflect the reading measured by Temperature sending unit.

How to check the wiring resistance or performance of fsu, electrician has already checked and showed me that positioning of temperature needle is perfectly accurate , going to extreme H and extreme C

You mean to say that the needle is stuck? Its not moving up and down whether engine is hot or cold?

[brownrose78]

Yes needle starts from C and stops at certain point.

Not go below tgat, not goes above than that. Ab itna Acha mera engine ho hee na jaye k esa temperature maintain karey

[speedster_101]

Check during traffic jam. Fan is direct or auto?

Your speedometer is faulty, remove it and reseat the needle so it rests on zero,
