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

[metalhead]

ok here is the speedo meter and RPM meter in my car..its of GTI khyber version which was i guess 1.3 L..
now prob is it does not show correct rpm and speed..
the pic above is showin car on idle..prob is it dont shows accurate rpm and speed..GTI has 13 inches tires size and my khyebr has 12 inches size..so anyway i can rectify it?

I think you have installed a 4-cylinder engine's rpm meter in a 3-cylinder one. Tire size has nothing to do with the rpm but effects the speed-o-meter.

^
thats what I said...RPM is for 1.3 L engine and mine is 1.0L
and speedometer is working according to 13 inch tire size,and mine car has 12
so all in all,both rpm and speedo are wrong !

@cracked
You also said earlier that: so anyway i can rectify it?
Do let us know about it...

[cracked]

asked if there is anyway to know the correct rpm and speed..any mathematical formula or stuff!

[metalhead]

You can find many online calculators for speed correction.

If you keep the diameter of tire same as stock by selecting lower profile tire on larger rim, the speed will show no error.

Regarding rpm, i don't know if there is any option inside to switch it to 3-cylinder setting. But when your engine turns 4 revolutions the gauge will show 3 revs. That means at 1000rpm gauge will show 750rpm. Correct me...

[cracked]

ok,so for RPM,its 4/3 ratio? mean any rpm shown if multiplied by .75,should give correct rpm?
how about if i get some after market RPM meter? would it show correct rpms?

Is it possible to remove AC's evaporator without removing dash board in Khyber?

[fas133]

There is no need to remove dash board to get the evaporator out in khyber.Just remove the blower unit first and then you can remove the evaporator easily.

[cracked]

yup,who would remove the dash for removal of evaporator? ive got done this twice and was only remved the blower motor compartment!

My Suzuki Khyber front seats have become quite uncomfortable in a sense that they are leaned backward. Especially the driving seat. So its uncomfortable for both the front and back passengers. I showed it to a poshish wala and he said that the frame has become weak. (I am a bit healthy). Guys what should be the solution? Should I take them to some Khiradia and add more steel bars or buy new seats?

To be very honest the front seats are not that much comfortable.
If I were you then I would have tried to fit in some better and more comfortable ones.

its chasis is weak so rebuliding it
estimated cost 30000

Weak in what sense?
Weak engine mounts?
Rust issues or was the front involved in any severe collision?

Is it possible to remove AC's evaporator without removing dash board in Khyber?

Yes it is possible.
No need to remove the complete dashboard.

[MoizIrfan]

2 front severe colisions causing chasis to bend.
it starts to bend every 6 months from front right fender side

[daniyalahmad]

^ So what do you do the overcome this issue?
Tried any reinforcement to make the chassis a bit more strong?

[MoizIrfan]

thinking of adding a strut bar on top of front suspension, previously we use to repair chasis every 6 to 8 months.
can anyone quote me the price and its availability.
i also need the accurate dimensions of the distance between the front suspension where strut bar will be added.

To be very honest the front seats are not that much comfortable.
If I were you then I would have tried to fit in some better and more comfortable ones.

Yes you are right. The front seats are not so comfortable. I was also thinking of placing some other car's seats. Do you have any idea which car seats can be fitted in Khyber?

[speedster_101]

The axles of my Suzuki Khyber are also giving problems. I hear a tuk tuk voice on turnings. The Kabli parts of Suzuki Khyber are very expensive nowadays due to the fact that the production of this car was stopped decades ago, hence the parts are scarce now. Should I go for brand new Chinese ones? Any idea about the cost?
