General Car Chat / Coil Pack Compatibility

« on: 06 November 2012, 13:23:26 »

Hey guys,

not much of a mechanic, but would a coil pack from 3.0 Ltr be compatible for a 3.2 Ltr Engine?
Plus, found out the Plug wells were filled with Engine oil.
managed to change the spark plugs and the engine seems to stall alot more then before when idling

 :'(What could be the cause?

a friend suggested to have the engine modified mechanically first then fiddle with the ECU.
What say?

hello all,

i had an issue earlier which i posted on the wrong thread, well apparently the bushes in the spindle are screwed, probably replacing them would solve the wobble plus i need to change my shock absorbers.

anyhoo, i've encountered another issue though, there was some coolant fluid leaking from the cap (since it's inner seal was melted) and i had assumed by changing the cap it would solve the issue but it just got worse.
And what type of coolant and engine oil would you recommend for a 50+ Degree Celsius environment

Thanks,

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Steering Vibration

« on: 03 June 2012, 12:12:27 »

hey guys.. first post and i have a problem that needs to be rectified.
when i had got the car the first time, the car would vibrate between 50 mph and 60 mph and its smooth onwards.
 i had replaced the tyres (2nd hand) done balancing and the problem seem to have disappeared until i went over a speed breaker. the vibrations came back again but this time through the steering and it wasnt as violent as it was earlier. also everytime i go over a speed bump, theres a lil thump comin from the Front right link.
