His influence, “the initial acceleration is usually so slippage. Such as gas power plays but did not fit the spin machine, “said Indra Putera H Laksana, mechanical GT Speed ​​in Cinere, Depok.

3. Use the tire size that is not unusual, for example 140/80-14. Belt need greater pressure to drive the wheels. This is what makes rapid belt wear. In addition, a large power-resulting from the use of wide tires also make a belt-wear faster.

4. Itineraries also make all day long v-belt durability is reduced and then made ​​a quick break. For example, one way tens of kilometers without resting mixed traffic. Although consumption is still about 10,000 miles, v-belt could be broken.

Well, to counteract all that, no harm done checking baseball. It can be done free time

Government efforts to reduce motor vehicle pollution is heavily smoke is implemented. One of them is by limiting exhaust emissions. If it exceeds a predetermined threshold, then the car must be taken to the garage to re-do the settings so that later dump gas emissions will be lower.

Lately we may often hear or even see in the media about the car ads Hybrid (Hybrid Cars). Hybrid car itself is only one title where the modification of an existing car to use two power sources. Consists of two machines is the engine that uses gasoline as a resource and machines that use rechargeable batteries.

Usually the machine is made smaller than the cars currently available to accommodate 99% travel time at the ramp or are not speeding. At the time the car stops like a red light then automatically using the gasoline engine will die and be replaced by machines that use rechargeable batteries are.

The car is made lighter and more aerodynamic so it can lighten the work car engine that uses batteries. Hybrid cars reduce pollution due to the re-issue of battery consumption, the gas emitted is zero.

That will surely become more fuel efficient and can imagine the conditions in Jakarta, which is never bogged down, how much gasoline is burned just to jam for hours.

For those of you who like speeding possibly the Hybrid car is not your ideal choice, because of limited ability is not like car oil-fueled cars. Beside it is a bit inconvenient because you have to set aside time to recharge your car battery. What is clear is all there must be advantages and disadvantages, one is certain environmentally friendly cars is a must at this time considering the condition of the earth is getting damaged.

The problem, it rarely appears in the path of an air bubble water cooler. Could disrupt the incoming air pressure in the system and eventually interfere with the task of the engine cooling water. The risk is greater because of overheated engines between components position in the cars are now more tightly.

Air can enter the radiator cap when opened and closed. The air that exists between surface water and the radiator cap. In addition, air may also exist because the radiator cap condition was not good.

Valve on the radiator cap there is a functioning air flow from the reservoir tank when the heat and sucking water from the reservoir to the radiator (when cold).

How to expel trapped air? Follow the steps below

1. Make sure the temperature of the engine is cold.
2. Open the radiator cap. Turn on the machine (so the water circulates). After that, enter the water to the mouth of the radiator and stop if it is full.
3. Cover again with a perfect radiator.
4. After that, unscrew the air dump. Waster closed position any different brands of cars. Location can be seen in the vehicle owner manuals.
5. Consider the water out of the valve. If there is a froth, then it indicates there is still air in the cooling path. That is, you have to keep doing this process until that comes out is water without bubbles.
6. Check the amount of water in the tube resevoir reserves. If less, add up to the limit

Until air conditioning was not functioning due to negligence of the owner to perform maintenance. It could also be the life of the component or the high frequency of use. More aggravated, “a lot of car owners who lay on AC. So when a problem many baseball understand about his serve, “explained Ferdian, air conditioner repair shop owner in Arteries Kedoya Panca Jaya, West Jakarta.

Here are some symptomhappens to a car air conditioner

less cold
The trigger comes from the compressor. According to Chandra from AC cottage workshop in Jatiwaringin, East Jakarta, the magnetic clutch is worn or broken there is a magnetic bobbin. As a result, drain the freon compressor work is hampered.

For another, there is a leak in the evaporator result freon wasted. Chandra advice, must change if the new resistant welded only briefly.

Less savory smell
The reason, the interior is dirty conditions caused passengers to bring food habits. The smell of leftovers can be stuck to the seats, door trim or carpet. smoking habits have anything to contribute part was pleasant aroma.

Strange noise when turned on
Origin of the compressor noise is usually problematic. According to Chandra, the bearings in the compressor is worn out or broken make noisy compressor work. Others, coming from the blower. For some brands of cars, the position of the component is in the glove box. If a drawer full of attempts to discuss a book or a light object and then siphoned off, leads directly to the sound.

Freon often less
This condition is because there is a leak in the hose or evaporator, so that freon wasted. “Generally freoan reduced after the use of over two years,” said Chandra. The cost to drain and recharge freon between Rp100-Rp200 thousand. Instead, do check and clean the compressor every 2000-5000 miles.

In the combustion chamber, Nitrous Oxide split into Nitrogen and Oxygen. When mixed with fuel, Oxygen will assist combustion. At high pressure, around 800psi, Nitrous Oxide as a liquid. Bottles and tubes that would be strong enough to contain it. If the valve tube is not working properly, fluid will seep out and instantly turned into more.Nitros Oxide gas is very sensitive to heat changes. At the pressure becomes very dangerous. If the affected limb, the limb will freeze and break. This is commonly called frost bite, the thing that is often experienced mountaineers at an altitude of 5000 km above sea level.

If the jets of gas leads to the source of the fire, will create a combination of cooling and the ideal gas pressure of oxygen for combustion, resulting in explosion. This cooling effect is obtained from the absorption of heat to evaporate the liquid Nitrous Oxide. This condition not easily occur. This gas instead of fuel and will not burn by itself. Required to burn the fire source. This has led to legally used for motor vehicles. On the machine, the gas flow is normally controlled by a solenoid valve. Fuel supply should also be reproduced, gar not happen poor combustion and overheating occurs. The impact is to be melted piston.

In addition to supplying additional oxygen there is another benefit when using a tool that has long been known by the automakers. In the liquid state and gas, the volume is very minimal NOS. So it does not disturb the flow of air and fuel entering through the intake manifold. But in the combustion chamber, NOS will expand. Compression and energy it will generate much higher. The end result, the amount of fuel burned will be more and mesinpun energy increases. Another advantage, detonation and overheating symptoms can be reduced. This is thanks to a mixture of fuel, air, and NOS. that enters the combustion chamber is much cooler. This nature which can not be obtained when using the turbo air compressor system.

Whatever kind of fuel supply system on a car engine, whether it’s cars still use carburetors or injectors that have, both NOS still can apply, it’s just a different installation process. There are two types of installation for the NOS, the system of Wet (Wet) and Dry (Dry). Each installation has the equipment / kit is different.

1. NOS Wet System: The process of ejection of fuel mixed with Nitrous Oxide gas and fired simultaneously into the engine combustion chamber through a special injector. In a wet system on the engine carburetor, fuel and gas mixture must be set by the size of NOS spuyer / jet, so the comparison fits, because if too much gas into the combustion system compared NOS fuel the engine can be broken, whereas if too much fuel compared to gas NOS, then the power generated will not be maximal (reduced effectiveness). To use the NOS on the engine carburetor longer needed an additional tool called the Spray Bar.
System application process is also divided into two, namely:
* Single Point System: This system uses one channel to mix with fuel NOS.
* Direct Port System: This system uses a separate channel on each cylinder to fire and fuel simultaneously NOS

2. Dry NOS System: NOS gas firing process and the fuel is conducted separately, NOS Nozzle plugged directly into the combustion chamber separately, while gasoline through their own line remained on the injectors or carburetor.

Of the incident causing the engine rev the engine produces absurd sound coming from the engine compartment and of course can be very annoying when driving. Yet many still underestimate ngelitik if the engine sounds, but this should not be allowed because it can cause potentially fatal damage to the machine.

If the incident is left absurd machine in a long time until the sound is getting worse, then it is usually at the end of the piston / cylinder there will be bopel-bopel and even until the piston is perforated. For that would SO mania need to know the cause and how treatment should be done so that the engine becomes durable and whose name does not occur ngelitik machine.

Cause absurdengine (engine knocking)
Many factors can cause the engine absurd, such as type of fuel usage factors which are not appropriate, because should the vehicle use with high octane fuel but the car users are using fuel with lower octane levels. Other causes so that the machine becomes absurdis due to the combustion chamber is already too much carbon crust.

In addition to the fuel, timing gear settings are not correct to make the combustion or ignition factor is less good, because more fuel is not burned completely. If this is allowed to continue will result in the engine will also absurd and crust buildup of carbon in the combustion chamber in excess.

“Economic factors are usually the main cause of people use low octane fuel with the engine when the car must use fuel with octane eminence,” said Chandra,

Avoid With Engine Tuning
If this is the machine that should use high octane fuel but still want to use low-octane fuel for various reasons, solutions that can be done usually is to do a resignation ignition timing to prevent knocking. This can be done but with this condition, the consequence is not able to pull a car-responsive when using a good fuel and ignition timing accordingly.

If the ignition factor is the cause, can use the plugs that fit or if you can use products that may increase or maximize the ignition.

Carbon Clean or Top Overhaul So Solution
If the engine combustion chamber is estimated to have contained much carbon crust that sticks to the engine alwaysabsurd, then the easiest step that can be done to clean-carbon method is to use clean. “Had a lot of really workshops that can clean the combustion chamber with clean carbon method, although the results certainly can not be said to be clean carbon fuels in the room up to 100%,” added Chandra.

As a final step that can be done if the problem gets worse absurd machine is to be done Top Overhaul (OH), which requires half the engine down. If you do this, then there will be many parts that need replacing and which is certain to be replaced is the packing cylinder head, valve seals, valve packing cover (if still in good condition can be used again), and packing water pump.

But as much as possible if the engine had to experience Top OH, then the packing or seal the top must be replaced. Meanwhile, if for the valve, rocker arm, valve flute, sitting valve, the bottle valve, valve chopsticks, sims / coin-smelling metal valves etc. should be seen first and if the condition is still good do not need to have replacement.

“For matters of labor from each workshop varied as seen from the brand and also the type of car, it usually costs ranging from 400 thousand to 1.5 million, not including spare parts are replaced, said Chandra. Let the machine remain durable, my advice, use of quality fuel that match the characteristics of the machine. “Chandra added to end the interview.

1. slip Clutch
Damage the automatic transmission can be felt from the slip clutch. The indication there is an imbalance engine speed with the car’s speed. The engine has been roaring at high speed, but the car is running at a rate that is not balanced by the roar of the car.

2. Do not insert the lever to position P if the car has not really – completely stopped.

3. Combustion process
Since there is no combustion process in the automatic transmission, decrease the viscosity of the fluid caused contamination due to the lifetime. It is inevitable, because any friction that occurs in the clutch plate, would result in the charge / contamination

4. Automatic Transmission Fluid
In the automatic gearbox, there is a fluid whose name AutomatikTransmission Fluid (ATF), its function is not only lubricates. Automatic hydraulic principle in girbox require mediators. Primarily to manage tooth movement and pressed the clutch plate. So if the viscosity of the viscosity falls, the pressure generated will also be reduced.

5. Shift
Switching gears too jerky, not smooth as usual. This bias in check by entering the gear to the position D or R, then brake off. Daslam healthy condition, the car in motion. If not there is an issue worthy of suspicion in the automatic transmission.

6. Do not leave cars parked in position D. Sometimes this is done by drivers who are familiar with the manual car. Habits like these must stay behind, if you do not want the clutch plate damaged quickly. Simply insert the lever to position P, a car parked in a safe position

This is vital damage and preventive measures.

“Overheat”
For machines equipped with modern computers, when operating temperatures exceed the limits of work, then the computer will automatically protect a way to disable the engine gradually. For example, the computer will stop working AC compressor, goes into safe mode (safe mode), until the moment the engine stopped completely.

However, the 1990s era engines not equipped with computers. Symptoms of overheating can be detected by the appearance of symptoms knocking when accelerated.

* Preventive measures
Check the cooling system and the amount of engine oil regularly. Note the engine when the temperature indicator arise knocking, and soon tepikan car.

Oil leak
Reduced drastically the amount of engine oil will cause friction on moving parts. The impact, high engine temperature (overheat) and exceptional wear. The cause is damage to the bolt hole cover the disposal of oil due to hit by hard objects, or conditions of sil-sil in the machine is less good. There should also look at indicators of oil in the dash that will light when the lack of lubricant.

* Preventive measures
Check the oil regularly. Do not underestimate the oil indicator light. That suggests that the oil pump pressure loss.

“Water hammer”
Water is sucked into the combustion chamber due to hit the high water inundation. Water is far denser than air, to meet the combustion chamber, would not be pressure when the engine works on the compression stroke. In a closed valve condition, water pressure will destroy the weakest component in the combustion chamber, ie the piston.

* Preventive measures
Know the height of the engine air inlet. Never once the ignition when the engine dies in the middle of the flood. Open spark plugs, then start the engine to remove water in the combustion chamber.

“Timing belt”
Function as a crutch and aligning round valve so that the two do not collide. However, the fatal consequences when the belt that connects the two mechanisms is broken suddenly. Damage is inevitable because the piston will hit the valve is in open position.

If it happens in high rpm, the engine block can be broken. This condition can be minimized if you know the damage that occurs. Engine with low compression ratio or a turbocharger or supercharger equipped likely to have a smaller chance of damage.

Then how do I save on fuel consumption as well as extend the mileage of the car? You can save on your car’s fuel consumption by 10 in this way.

1. Keeping the engine speed

Generally, the maximum torque the engine is at 2500-3500 rpm. Do the gearshift on the rev range the engine. If the engine rev too high, then the supply of gasoline will increase. Moderate if too low, need stamping on the gas pedal deeper to increase the speed.

2. Use air conditioning wisely

Using the AC to give a big load on the engine which can increase fuel consumption. Disable AC when the outside air is sufficient to remedy the car cabin. In hot weather, park the car in the shade. When he wants to drive again, open all the glass to remove hot air from the cabin. So it can reduce air-conditioning work to cool the cabin.

3. Avoid sudden acceleration and braking

Accelerating or driving at a constant fuel supply is also making constant. Sudden acceleration can make the ECU is ordered to supply gasoline to a maximum. While the brakes on excessive force you to press the gas deep to obtain the original speed. Stepped on the gas pedal with a smooth and calculated braking distances are adequate.

4. Pay attention to tire pressure and alignment

The lack of clearly dangerous tire pressures. Conditions that can increase the barriers to progress. To achieve a certain speed, the engine works harder than normal to need more fuel. Can also increase tire wear is uneven. harmony tires, wheel bearings and brake wear and tear that can increase fuel consumption about 10%.

5. Servicing the car regularly

Air filters and dirty oil, worn spark plugs, engine oil is not replaced old, leaky exhaust and emission control problems in the system can increase fuel consumption. Perform periodic servicing to reduce these barriers. Better yet, if the service was performed before reaching a predetermined distance.

6. Use fuel with octane in accordance

Many automobile engines that can work either with the fuel octane value is lower than the manufacturer’s recommendations. Unless there was knocking. But the engine performance and fuel consumption will be improved when using fuel with the octane rating according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

7. Reduce the load

Do not use the trunk of your car as a second closet. Or do you always carry lots of heavy goods and accessories that are not needed on your trip that day. The addition of these loads makes the engine work harder than normal conditions. Because, you have to step on the gas pedal deeper to gain speed.

8. Avoid the jams

Conditions of stop and go so quickly reducing your car fuel tank. Avoid rush hour to avoid jams. Also avoid letting the engine idle for a long time, like turning on the engine when waiting. Due to the condition it needs more fuel than turning off and turning on the machine again.

9. Plan your route

Determine an effective route and avoid the jams do need your experience. Avoid the traffic you have ever passed in the past. Using maps and GPS will help you determine the route. If you want to stop several times, try to route remains one shaft.

10. Driving Smart

Reduce the speed you normally use to save fuel. Traveling at a speed of 100 km / h using a fuel around 15% more than traveling at 80 km / hour. Using cruise control on the freeway or to activate overdrive automatic transmission, making the engine ECU in the fuel supply ordered economical fashion.

But if we are not ready with a new car, the choice we can switch to second-hand car or used car. Currently, many dealers who sell used cars. With various types and brands and also with a variety of prices offered. But foresight is required if you want to buy a used car.

Many places that sell used cars at this time, in addition to the used car dealer, Otobursa used cars is now rife held in several cities. In Otobursa and used car dealers we will be faced with many choices of used cars available. There are several ways to determine the condition of a used car is still good or has been damaged.

The first, ensure good engine condition. We can know a good mechanical condition of his voice is still smooth, or also from the condition of these machines are still dry no oil spills. To ensure we can test it by running a used car. If we use the roads with different road conditions is no problemin the engine, meaning the engine is still good.

If we do not have the capacity machine problem, we can ask for help to the mechanics of the car repair shop that we believe to ascertain the condition of a used car. Of reference that have been experiencedmechanics we can conclude the car is worth to buy or not.

Besides the engine, chassis and body condition also must be considered. Do not let us buy a used car that suffered loss in the body. For that before we buy a used car make sure the first cars came from where. If the car is from vulnerable coastal areas exposed to sea water, has been ascertained that the car body will experience a loss.

If we buy a used car should also set aside the budget from buying the car for repairs. Since we bought the car wears out other people and conditions that we do not yet know.
