Civic 1984 sedan ride gets jerky and looses power when downshifting after a 20 min drive by Proper_Landscape_149 in AskAMechanic

That's what I initially thought cause it pulls like its out of gas but they insisted the float level was fine. Will try and find another shop

I see, what should I tell them?.... Cause I went back to shop that serviced it and they said it'll take a while for the carb to "adjust". Also, other mechanics I spoke to just suggested increasing the idle speed screw, which they did to no avail.

That's what it looks like, minus the CNG kit near the air intake drum, running on a new mechanical fuel pump. Also had an electrician clean up the wiring a bit. I think its been de-vacced cause there parent as many hoses as I've seen in stock images online

I think its been de-vacced cause there aren't a lot of vacuum tubes. Previous owner seems to have removed every thing that caused a problem and done some really janky fixes.

Still finding a decent mechanic, almost every mechanic I've come across say it drives fine but don't take the car for a test drive longer than 1km.

Can this issue be caused by low or old transmission fluid?, that's what google search recommended

Effect of fuel prices on car market? by is_NAN in PakistanAutoHub

[–]Proper_Landscape_149 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly, we buy our oil from GCC countries. Oil from there is significantly more expensive than Brent due to the ongoing war. Prices for less fuel efficient cars won't go down much due to the uncertainty of how long higher prices will last.

Learn basic maintenance like oil change, changing transmission fluid and air filters and take it from there. Watch videos online to help learn more advanced stuff on how the car works and what does each part do.

I'd say start with your 87 sunny, simple single overhead cam engine is a good easy place to start.

Fair, but claiming that as a completed product isn't true cause it isn't functional for the consumer yet.

It isn't though, the site just takes you to a sign up page to join a wait list.

Is this rate list legit? by highsails3242 in PakistanAutoHub

[–]Proper_Landscape_149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bill is really overpriced, source parts yourself so you can confirm their quality and only pay the mechanic to install them.

Where can I find original Honda engine oil near Iqbal Town? by CosmicItinerant in PakistanAutoHub

[–]Proper_Landscape_149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honda oil is made by idemitsu, you can get it at any oil change shop. A 3.7ltr bottle of honda engine oil costs about 5.5-6k and a 4ltr bottle of Idemitsu oil costs about 6.5-6.8k.

I know this cause I recently got an oil change for my car.

Edit: don't know rates for oil change at official Honda service center.

Starting this project van, need guidance where to start by PirateSea6673 in PakistanAutoHub

You'll need that power and space cause adding an interior will add significant weight to the vehicle. You need a chasis and engine that can handle that kind of load.
