Bad valve seals or generally weak engine or very bad carburetor

[sleeper]

Bad valve seals for sure i know....coz blue/white smoke on overnight start.....but past 2 3 days there is nothing....strange

[margallar]

get a compression test and definitely get those seals fixed, it will only get worse and eventually carbon up the engine

[sleeper]

I remember smeone here said its not that of an issue if there is morning smoke only

Anyways...is this job done by removing tappet cover?....can dealership be relied on for this wrk?...i know exp but still.

[margallar]

dealership probably won't do it, without removing the head.

it may or may not be an issue depending on how bad it is. a few seconds of smoke , maybe you can ignore, but when it gets too bad you need to get it fixed.

anyhow its a cheap job if done without removing the head, so it is totally worth it

So did you get the grease for bearings?

[last_look]

have you replace the accelerator cable with a new genuine one i had the same problem as you have

[last_look]

i have a small problem that when ever i touch the brake pedal the interior lights gets dim slightly and my exterior lights has a small flicker is it something to be worry about? Possible culprit ?

[margallar]

Yes, Mobil Xhp synthetic grease is available

[margallar]

so, my margalla was having issues at cold start, the valve seals were so bad that they would short one spark plug and the engine would misfire until the oil went away.

Today i got valve seals replaced, WITHOUT removing head.

Also got to see the amazing cleaning done by 10w30. Car feels like rocket, but this time smoke less rocket

details of valve seal replacement, can also see the engine is being well cleaned by the caltex 10w30

[margallar]

this engine tappet area used to be black as night with carbon deposits, now most of it is gone, the golden colour is due to a thin layer of oil present over it. if you wipe it off, there is white metal.

[xzap042]

So how about that offer of filled bearings? I want to replace both my front wheel bearings

[margallar]

Will give estimate tomorrow

[engnr.mubashir]

Bro, need suggestion my car have completed 100k kms and as per manual Timing bearing and Timing belt needs replacement also clutch set along with Spark plug wires. Should I get these done from market or from Suzuki workshop. Any I Idea hpw much these thing going to cost along with labor.

[sleeper]

Around 6.5k fr bearing and 4/5k for belt frm dealership.

Clutch setting only if u hv any issue with it
Plug wires only if there us any issue with it.

[engnr.mubashir]

One of the suzuki dealership in karachi quoted me 22K for belt and bearing including labor charges.
Gear are not shifting smoothly mechanic said pressure plate khatam hay and some time I hear gear grinding noise while shifting.
2 of the plug wire boots are cracked.

[nasirjavaid]

@margallar bro can PCV valve be arranged from bilal ganj? If yes then for how much?
Previously I had one but it has gone bad now.

Thanks

[margallar]

Better get a brand new one from montgomery rd.

[margallar]

Get brand new genuine wire from dealership. Make sure it isnt too old.

Rest of stuff from market

[sayedgulhassan]

i have very good experience with kabuli wires which i bought from sultan ka kho for 800rs 3 years ago
Still working like new, even no issues with sudden full acceleration.(condition is also the same physically)
Before that i used to buy those yellow orange new wires for 1000rs which i had to change after a year Or less.
Car is carb cultus
