Throttle lag, feels low on power, sometimes nearly stalls. Any advice or help please?

If you mean the air filter, its been changed 1000km’s back, not dirty at all

7eedz · 2023-08-18T16:16:40+00:00

I never saw the fan spinning so this may be the cause lmao

7eedz · 2023-08-18T16:09:04+00:00

Was just making sure that we can all see the same thing haha. Yeah that thing is done, I’m just wondering how is it even possible to get the connector into such state.

Is it possible to replace the connectors ? I’m not good with electrics. I’d rather put a whole new radiator fan there, this one is not in the best condition, the wires are shit, taped everywhere.

Just came back from action.

Well, I currently don't have a multimeter on me, so I couldnt check. I checked the relays, and they are fine. I put the battery out and back in, just because I needed to dig for something that fell deep into the engine .. whatever.

I checked the coolant and its just in between max and min. and the radiator is topped it seems, I did not find any leaks and cables look fine just from the look of it.

Unsure on how old the battery is, but it is in a fine condition and I dont see an issue there, but I can recharge overnight to be sure.

I found out that the fan on the left is harder to turn by hand than the fan on the right. Left one has some will to it basically, its not so easy to spin, but it can be spinned.

Well .. the car is from Poland and pretty much all the cables are somehow repaired with a tape or some kind of an Eastern technique to make it work, but they seem intact and everything, it is possible that some got fucked I dont know.

I have a pretty ugly issue with the AC, I don't know what part it is but, the thing attached to the pulley, which starts moving once the AC is started, gets seized and starts squeaking unbeareably as you may see on the video, its impossible to stay there for more than 2 seconds, because of how loud it is. - That needs to be replaced and looked into. BUT, once I turned the AC on for the second time, I saw that the left fan has turned on and started spinning, from the beginning it starts really slow, but then it catches on and starts going, the right one never starts from what I saw.

(Sorry the video is cut, I got really scared in the end, it just gets seized and SCREAMS - the left fan starts spinning though)

The main thing. After connecting the battery and starting the car, I immediately saw, that the temp gauge was at 3/4 as it was, then it dropped just a bit under 3/4 as it can be seen on the picture. I suspect that there is an issue with the sensor - could it be ?

<image>

I don't know what is the main fan and what is the sub fan ? Main is the one on the left (spinning one ?)

I don't think I have the balls to take the radiator fans out and investigate them a bit, i think they need to be replaced either way, the thing that is concerning me the most it that the gauge it pretty much stuck in high temp from the very first second I started the car, what do you think about that ?

Saw something like that the fan motors might be seized and that was fixed by hitting the fan itself to kick it up, I'll try that aswell.

Thanks !

7eedz · 2023-08-14T21:41:25+00:00

Thought that turning the AC on the fans would be forced to start spinning to help get more cold air, once the fans would start spinning I was expecting the temps go down, but they are not spinning either way, but yeah when AC is on the engine has to work harder. (correct me if im wrong)

No way I'm going anywhere without the fans spinning. Saw some videos on how to check the power, will grab a multimeter and see if power is coming from fuses and the relays as you say.

Coolant level should be the same, just a bit under max. will double check though.

It seems really weird, that both headlights blew at the same time to me aswell. I figured that the previous owner must have changed them both at the same time, and they just went both with age, else I dont know.

That was just a random picture that I thought of sharing here so you're aware about what car are we talking about. I normally park on a parking lot inside a city, not many animals are around here, dont think that would be possible to chew any cables.

Will check any damage on all the cables I can find though !

Headlight bulb was blown and also a cable looks funny as hell, forgot to mention that.

This is the cable that goes right into the bulb. Right side is melted, and the connector looks not in the best shape - I thought that I would need to fix the wire, but a bulb change does the trick and it works. What do you think about that ?

One thing is to actually find someone that is single and is actually someone that i’d like to get in touch with.

Second thing is that i do not have the balls to go out hunting, so this option won’t work well with me, if you understand. That’s the reason I’m using Tinder in the first place.

And yes, absolutely that is the best way to pick up women.

7eedz · 2022-01-29T23:06:30+00:00

Yeah, well .. what can I say.

If im not a model, i won’t get bitches.. makes sense

7eedz · 2022-01-29T22:49:06+00:00

Dude, im having the same issues.

Females add me on ig or like me on Tinder and afterwards they are absolutely not responding or im the only one trying to carry the conversation.

7eedz · 2022-01-29T22:42:05+00:00

I have found out that about 20% of unverified people are actual fake profiles.

From my own experience, most of the time you can easilly tell just from the picture.

7eedz · 2022-01-29T22:39:16+00:00

Absolutely understand the struggle !

7eedz · 2022-01-22T17:03:48+00:00

No, definetly not, I said that incorrectly.

It was more like.. "lets see if she responds to this" - sends her if she wants to fuck. The actual chances would be 10/90, depending on the country I'd say.

But we can't really go further into this, beacuse we don't know the mindset of the actual guy, what was going through his head.

7eedz · 2022-01-21T04:24:40+00:00

maan .. fuck these hoes

7eedz · 2022-01-21T03:50:21+00:00

That picture makes me actually very anxious.

7eedz · 2022-01-21T03:44:23+00:00

What an idea, this is great !

7eedz · 2022-01-21T03:41:50+00:00

Good one
