What is arcaine welding for head and the mechanic said the khardiya will make its ports as head is weak and requires arcaine welding and if in the longrun the head will work fine after this arcane welding plus mechanic is telling me labour for cam bush, arcaine welding and head phase will be 3.5k for khardiya
It is Arc welding. And what is wrong with the head?
The mechanic just told that bushes to the cam will be required and arc welding for head as the head is weak basically doing an engine overhaul brother
He might be talking about TIG welding. They call it argon arc welding in desi term.
So argon arc is now arcaine?
Bhai panadol hogi?
they have a special name for MIG welding as well.
Migraine welding?
something like that with carbon
Brother if the head is cracked or something then I can understand why is the guy asking to TIG weld but if not then why is the guy asking?
Share some detailed pics of the head...
Head is probably corroded.
I would have bought a brand new cyl head casting and build it up. No use trying to work on corroded metal if a new one is cheap.
As per the mechanic new one is expensive for mehran and after the welding it will work just fine.
ask mechanic if he is expecting you to run it with no thermostat valve, direct running fan and tap water as engine coolant?
It is always direct fan....
I rest my case.
btw, local made head casting for Suzuki F8A is fantastic, 3 or 4 outfits were making it and they finished it to such high quality that it stuck out like a shining star.
No Suzuki cyl head ever was that high quality finished. LOL
No Basically an engine overhauling is currently in progress, earlier no thermostat valve installed and fan was auto with guard red coolant. Should i ask him to add thermostat valve? as most mechanics are against thermostat valve because of the only reason that in summers the car will heat up. I have got original thermostat valve of mehran it was taken out ages ago by Suzuki authorized dealers mechanic stating that it is the main reason behind heating up with ac but the heating issue with ac was still there even after removal of thermostat valve. Should i ask the mechanic to put it back now? fan is auto with coolant in radiator as mentioned earlier.
