Self Tunning - Khyber G-10 (Plugs, valve clearance, spark gap etc)

[daniyalahmad]

how much is mileage with AC??? i think im gettin around 10-12 kmph without ac!
i put 1000RS petrol..around 11.75 liters..now car has run 56 kms and petrol i guess is still 60% left..i think 12 liters may 150 kms tou kry ge..it wud b around 12 kmph...
how about long route??

With AC in city driving I get around 10~11km/litre depending on the driving style.
On long routes it does around 16~17km/litre with AC.
If kept at a speed of 90km/h then it does around 19km/litre.
19km/litre was the best that it did on highway.

so finally got this venturi installed...n i can feel better response from car and also better mileage..off course mileage will be confirmed later,but car now responds like real good,almost as good as petrol..the mechanic installed it on the left side of air filter so cng pipe had to b changed to a bigger one in length...installed it..also air is half blocked but trust me,car now runs alot smoother than before...also tried car on petrol n car runs smooth on petrol too..so finally after quite a hassle,ive got car set on petrol n cng too! sorry no photos cuz mobile wasnt with me.ill post after installation pix later... good thing about this venturi was it only required one hole in air filter assembly and rest all was all old...

now venturi prob is over..plz respond to query no 1!

may help to resolve your 1st query. I think silencer pipe has to be removed first.

[cracked]

thnx xlporer..if silencer pipe is to be taken off,i think ill go to mechanic to get it done!
thanks for the link BTW,really helped..i missed tht page somehow!

^^^ If you can open 16 bolts of sump your self then there must be no problem in removing only 2-4 bolts of silencer pipe. Our mechanics do not work well with oil seals and gaskets. They do not handle such delicate things with due care. So better you do it yourself if you want a neat and clean and tension free work that lasts longer.

the 16 nuts on oil pan are easy to remove,i mean they dont require much power..the silencer pipe how-ever are very tight and very hard to get loosen up!

@cracked

I would also suggest you to do it your self if you have 10mm/14mm socket with a ratchet or T-rod a screw driver and some basic tools like hammer, goggles for your eyes safety against dirt and oil.

Safety measures
1. jack up the car properly and then put some addition support on both sides under the chassis frame and also block the tyres to avoid any unwanted movement.

1. engine should not be hot and all the oil should be drained completely prior to this (the drain nut should be in place after draining).

2. while underneath the car keep the goggles on and your face out of the way when you have done with all the bolts and pan is about to come off, it is a bit heavy so handle properly.

3. dont over torque the bolts, tight them gradually in criss-cross pattern and repeat the cycle four to five times.

4. use proper lighting underneath the car so you dont miss any thing and ensure that all the bolts go through the pan and the hole in the gasket and in to the block.

Cleanliness makes all the difference so clean up the pan and both contact surfaces thoroughly.

do i need to remove the silencer pipe too to take oil pan out?

[cracked]

[fas133]

Silicone based sealant is recommended.

^ I got a gasket/seal for the oil chamber.
It was opened for the first time and it was sealed with silicone.

@cracked
What about the chamber seal?
Did you search it?

2013 Mazda CX-5 looks better without the camouflage News Review

As you might recall, we recently spent sometime behind the wheel of a camouflaged Mazda CX-5 prototype in Iceland. And while we walked away impressed with our short stint behind the wheel, the fact that the car was covered in cheetah paper meant we couldn't quite see the final design – until now.

pay very careful attention to the diagram above, the sealant is supposed to be thinly spread out exactly like shown.

Aho,
I was talking about the oil pan gasket.
I thought that you will be using only silicone instead of the gasket.

@cracked
Desi name of oil pan is "chamber"

[metalhead]

why do we use silicon with gasket? Isn't just a gasket enough to seal?

What is used in genuine assembly; silicon only or gasket or gasket with silicon?
