Hi All, Im gona do DIY on my starter motor clean and re assemble. Some one told me it will help to solve this by cleaning the brush and the motor parts. I just need to know for the reassemble can I use the normal grease or is there any special kind on grease for these kind of accessories. also will it relay solve the problem by cleaning the motor ?

More than explain in technically what I can say is your a very lucky person that you arrive home safe under this situation.

Just to know something related to the same. what can be the issue oil light is on while the engine is idle or slow but it get off when accelerate ?

Its nothing to do with head gasket. coz if i try push start the car same time when starter motor is stop working engine will start even just 1/2 turn.

Hi All, I have a new problem coming up is my starter motor is not working when the engine is hot. I can start my car without any issue in the first start itself but when i run it and stop somewhere and when try to start its not cranking the engine. i can here "tick. tick." noise from the motor when is try to start but its not starting. first i thought its a battery but I checked my battery is good and the battery cables also tied well and charging also ok. Any way if i keep the car just about 10-15 min then I can start the car. the starter motor is working again. What can be this issue ? Do i need to replace the starter motor ?

Hi, I had exactly same issue and couldn't run the belt at least 500 km. and the battery charging issue when headlights on. when I went to electrician he removed the pulley and polished it with the machine. cost me about 2000 and so far no issue.

Hi firebird, Does this trend is comes with the MMC or volvo engine ? Any way once I drive this micro trend and from a person who brought it brand new and he says its volvo engine and there are with Mitsubishi engines too. only the body is local assemble. but while driving wt i told him is still i feel more smooth in my old Lancer than this new micro . the clutch and gear shifting feels like TATA bus. if its MMC engine parts are everywhere for sure. All the cars I had was Mitsubishi but very old vehicles (coz im a poor man ) but still those are better than brand new Chinese, Indian vehicles. This Trend car owner had to replace Wiper motor . Alternator and starter motor once he have drive in the rain in a flood road. car is not even one year old. also he had a big issue with AC compressor. he did't use the at least 2 years he sold it.

Hi, Great Job. Can you please share the workshop location and the charges ?

Hi AL Experts , I think its tome for me to change distributor cap and rotor. I just saw in the web always go for a cap and rotor color except black. and the cap tips which are made with brass. aluminium tips will make more resistance. Do I need to change spark plug and wires too with the rotor and cap ? what's is the point of go for color except black ? also if someone can tell the general cost for those parts for Lance A72, G11B Engine 1) Distributor Cap ? 2) rotor ? 3) Ignition Leads ? ( Do they really need to change ) 4) Spark Plug ? Thanks.

Welldone Schiffer, though even it looks like simple job when we go to service centers they charge some nice amount for this . any way thak for sharing the pics and process on AL . and i always like this DIY jobs. I did the same thin twice but didnt mesure the coolent and water ratio i just put entire coolen bottle to the radiator and filled rest with water.

if you put a tiny drop of break oil to those screws it will loose otherwise try WD40 . brake oil may be not advisable on carb. get the advice from Rumesh88 also if you gona try with break oil. and it have to clean the parts very well if you put the break oil.

Hi, if the Mac says carb is block . try DIY. If im you now i have started removing the carb to peaces peaces . then use the same abro carb to clean the parts . take the carb gasket to spare parts shop and take carb repair kit. assemble the carbulater with new parts . start your car and keep to worm tune it bit and feel the difarance .
