Suzuki Khyber 1989 Restoration

[mustansir44]

I am facing a problem. The car is starting normally but when I am lightly accelerating and then letting go off the accelerator the car vibrating and turning off. Also, I can hear hissing sound when accelerating. Moreover, the car is randomly turning off while driving on road at 30-40 km speed.
The carburetor has been checked and engine is also checked. I think there is a vacuum leak somewhere but I have installed thick gasket in between carburetor and Air Box but still the problem persist. Could this be related to PCV Valve?

Interior Pictures:

Some things are remaining like seat belt buckle needs to be installed, center console, Floor Mats and some other things are remaining. Desperately looking for speaker and trunk trims.

Still looking for genuine Side mirrors...

I never liked the way front handle is positioned, the skewed angle triggers me...

[nnabeel]

i guess the pipe should go out from the firewall instead of going out from the floor.

The ac knobs can be purchased from daraz as well. available at daraz
The door cards have been done well. ignore the tilt position of door handle as it supports the elbow while driving.

hissing sound means it is taking air wither from any pipe thats been cut or a vaccum leak.
Original side mirrors can be sourced from tibet centre market.

check this link for wheel cap. this is the original shape that came with khyber 12" wheels

Since you’re paying so much attention to detail, I’d like to highlight this. [image] The installed door handles are of rear doors; those too installed in wrong direction. Please see below reference pictures. Front ones: [image] Rear ones (installed in correct direction): [image]

hahaha... Yes I will remove it of course when all the work is absolutely done. Few minor details are still remaining like AC fan resistor, some interior trims and some other things so it will remain squeaky clean until mechanic, AC Technician and others have been it and out of the vehicle.

[mustansir44]

JazakAllah Noted. Will change them InShaaAllah

if had faced the same issues, for the car turning off at low acceleration as per mechanic the slow jets of carb and the pump of carb were not working properly & carb m petrol over ho rha tha,, , once this issue was catered then the issue was resolved ,,, for the hissing sound, i had the sound constant , not only at acceleration but also at idle condition,,, mechanic blocked the pcv valve pipe with polyethene and the sound was gone,,, this means k pcv valve ko bnd kr dya ,,, i tried couple of diff mechanics but all did the same method , even though i had a new japense pcv valve but still the issue was there and eventually had to block the pipe,,, i am still trying to get a proper solution to it so that my car pcv valve is active again but yet no success

[mustansir44]

JazakAllah. In my case there was indeed issue with carburetor jet and it was replaced. Also, main issue was because of rust in petrol tank which is temporary rectified by washing the petrol tank with thinner and cleaning both main petrol line as well as return line but I think it will come back. I will try to source new Petrol tank after eid.

As far as the hissing sound it is persistent on acceleration do not know it will cause any problem. Was this hissing sound from PCV Valve was causing any problem to you? @Xulfiqar bhai's point of view is needed here.

Fo tank rust, find a new one in magazine lane. it wont cost u more than 2000. but if u cant find it.
there is a guy named ASIF who sits just opposite Japan rubber parts. he repair tanks and charge nominal. but you have to take the tank with you. here its contact 0300-2147128.

As for the PCV, it should go like this and should not make hissing noise. it should be clamped properly and installed in correct direction.

Please go thru with this thread also....u will find tons of info for the khyber.

(6) is hot idle compensator. With cold engine, its blocked both ways (suction, blow). Which number is throttle butterfly?

[mustansir44]

JazakAllah. Will look into the mentioned thread. I will contact Asif after Eid and if required will go for the new tank.

Can Anyone advice me where Can I get original/OEM thermostat Valve for Khyber. I think recommended one is 82C. It is near to impossible to find it. Shop owners do not keep them as nearly everyone does not install it, thus demand is close to 0. Also, I will again search Shershah but no luck so far.

[saad2006]

I think recommended one is 82C

The 3 cyl takes an 82 thermostat.

[mustansir44]

But what about its availability and where can I find it. Is it same across every 3 cylinder engine?

[saad2006]

Don't know about availability

Is it same across every 3 cylinder engine?

This was a post of Xulfiqar Bhai ábout Khyber's engine, IDK about other 3cyl engines
