  5. Dear Members I recently inspected few cars (04 nos FB15 & 01- AE110), Though most of the sellers/Owners told me that they do have all maintenance records with them. But they don't have even Green test Certificates. Therefore I'm doubtful with the Odometer readings. With my bitter past buying experience I'm reluctant to buy those vehicles Could you please help me to clarify below questions; Isn't it illegal to change odometer readings , Will tampering ODO resale value effecteed ? How we can Check the correct odometer reading (Can we do this using a scanner)? Are there any places in Colombo/Suburbs to get full vehicle Check up report? How much does it Cost / Average time? Thank you in advance for your expert comments !

  11. Ocassionally my car horn is not working at all. after sometimes it works again. Is this due to a weak battery ? Please advice
  12. I'm using a Carb car, But recently I got my carb cleanning done @ kosgashandiya Carb Banda's son "Shantha". I've never gone their before but few persons told me that he is the best person for the carb repairs. So he ruined my carbwithin 1 1/2 hours & charges Rs .4500.00 without repair kit cost & petrol for cleanning perpuses. When I explained that peron the situation he told me to replace a new carb. However with the help of a small garage owner just i got my car in to running condition. Therefore never judge a garage/mechaninc only on reputation. Specially new vehicle users like us will fall in to their traps easily.
  13. Be cautious before you selct a place, Don't depend only on the reputation. I've learned the lessions from my recent experince . Please get advices from person who personnaly visited the selected garage before you go...
  14. Yesterday I took my vehicle to another mechanic, He checked ignition system & the fuel lines. He found that one of retrun fuel line from the petrol pump to tank was blocked. After the test run he also found that excessive fuel flow to carbrator causing engine knock & flooding. Once the car stoped during the test run he disconnected the fuel line to the fuel pump & cranked the engine while pressing the accelarator pedal fully. It was sucsessfull to restart. Now he is doing the repair works, hopefully I'll get the vehicle back today.
  15. Thank you for your thoughts fortunatly engine ran continuously until I came back home today. But Engine jerks is still occuring, I have keep accelarator pedal joggling to move the vechicle (Can't hold at a constant level). Can this be a ignition/ Ignition coil problem too ?
  16. I did repair as precaution but he made a mess of it. I could have done the emision test without carb repair
  17. Hi MINIACE Yes at times it's sucsessful needs to crank 10-12 seconds, When I press the pedal it's start to fire roughly. But tha't also failed last few days.need a push to reshart When the engine is cool it's start once, When Engine runs about 10-15 Km start to jerk. Have to press pedal hard to move the car. If engine stops not easy to start it again. this is my first vehicle I've fed up now.
  18. Dear Memebers Can some one help me to understand the this issue please. Since last 02 weeks it's very hard (SOme times Can't start at all) to start my car after few Km. Also engine is jerking while it runs on the way this problem crops up after the carbrator clean up. I did the eco test yesterday, Suprisigly it got trough in the first attempt. to get the starting and jerking issue sorted I took the vehicle to a mechanic. He told me that carbrator is in good shape with the tune up also. Advice me to go for a ring set replacement or a engine overhall to overcome this starting issue. According to him engine pressure drops when engine is hot, as a result of that starting is difficult. Only way to start the car a push for last couple of day. Can you please advice me what to do...I cant find or think a solution for this. I'm scared to use this vehicle now. Also I'm not in a position to change this vehicle for next 06 month period too.. 01. What could be the cause of the issue? 02. Will ring replacement will solve a problem expending 18K ? 03. Can this happen due to a petrol flooding?
  19. Mine EE90 also SU type carb, Suppose to be a difficult carb to rapiar ?
  20. Never go to Carb Banda's son SHantha @ kosgashandiya, He erans money without giving a raliable solution using his father's goodwill. Last Saturday I went for my carb repair (Actually I wanted to clean it before the emission test) he charged Rs 4500.00 without the repair kit charges. Even petrol for the carb cleanning they used to get from our own vehicles. Sad part is it's very hard to start my car now, Engine runs with a miss... It took nearly 04 hours to bring my car to nittambuwa after so called shantha's job...All helpers are drunkard too... please refer the below thead also http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/9898-repair-carburetor/
