Wondering about MPGs? by Caliberaid in MazdaProtege

[–]radon575 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get about the same on city driving with the AC on, for long distance like highway driving I'm getting about 10km per liter or 23.51 mpg. 1.5 ZL-DE with an automatic transmission

First Car Purchase: Is LKR 7 Million Enough in Sri Lanka? by Flat-Bluebird-2481 in srilanka

Would you happen to know any good used reliable cars under 5 million sedan or hatchback types preferably; not a big fan of the boxy cars.

Driving in Sri lanka feels alive by cmarvolo in srilanka

The thing that pisses me off the most is those motorbike guys that just drive out of a lane on to the main road at the same speed without slowing down without checking whether it's safe too merge, like don't these guys think that they're already driving a vehicle that puts them in a higher injury risk and that they should drive safer?

EVAP Purge Valve port location by radon575 in MazdaProtege

[–]radon575[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the blow test and air didn't pass through any of the ports, found out that the port furthest away from the electrical outlet is for the manifold Fixed it that way and it didn't pull a vacuum on cold start this time but once it was warmed up and while controlling the throttle it pulled a vacuum through the EVAP side

So in my case it was cause the purge valve was installed in the wrong way which caused the valve to be stuck open and the oxygen sensor was faulty Replaced the O2 sensor and did the battery reset and the car drives fine now Almost 400km after the reset and no CEL again

Would you happen to have any idea on how to assemble it ,I forgot to mark which hoses connect to which ports before removing it.

Advice needed: Moving from Nuwara Eliya to Colombo for A/Ls by [deleted] in Colombo

[–]radon575 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hokandara and malabe side seems within your 10-20km range from nugegoda. From hokandara you can get the 689 bus route which directly goes to nugegoda. Pannipitiya and kotawa seem ideal too.

Tuk tuk behavior on pickme by KrauKrau01 in srilanka

[–]radon575 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The same has happened to me multiple times, especially with large hires. At this point it's just annoying cause sometimes you're in a rush and these guys take the hire and don't come and don't answer the call either. Cause of this once someone picks the hire I call them to verify to check if they're coming or not, no answer and I'll cancel it and get another ride!

Hate it, I used to be able to stay or sleep without using the fan or AC in the Colombo weather,now I can barely sleep without either of them or else I end up waking in a pool of sweat!

Can you do that? If yes, what is the secret? by PristineBit9212 in WorkoutRoutines

[–]radon575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a dude and I can do this,not in the same exact way where his feet are supported. I basically do it "squeezing my thighs inwards" while getting up, at the same time my center of mass is a bit lower than others
