Flushing nozzles with their own hands

The serviceability of any vehicle depends on one of the most important components of fuel injection - fuel injectors. Since the engine fuel system is quite sensitive device, according to this she was the first crashes, when you receive a low-quality fuel, which contains a variety of impurities, whereby the manufacturer increases the octane number. In combustion of impurities on the inner and outer surfaces of nozzles formed tar deposits. Deposits in the form of lacquer peel brown-black, do not dissolve gasoline. If there is a dedicated device for cleaning the injectors, then, in principle, it does not make much effort. But since such an attitude is not at all, it is manual cleaning. Initially to replace oil. To do this you must have the compressor or pump, a special fluid that is used to clean the carburetor, rubber hose, it should approach the nozzle, and to consolidate its use plastic cable ties; pliers and a screw. After preparing the instrument must be removed from the fuel pump fuse, and then start the car, wait until he stall, and then pour fuel. Then carefully unscrew that pipe, which supplied fuel injectors. Once the tube is removed, you need to unscrew the pipe and remove the nozzle. Terminals injectors are disabled. Hole formed on the engine, locked, that would not hit the dust. When the hose is removed, you can completely drain the gasoline. Nozzle pulled out of the bar after the removal of fasteners. Careful examination of the rubber gasket held in order that would detect damage. As the car drives for a long time, it requires cleaning nozzle from the outside. This can be done with a brush. Followed by cleaning the inside. To this end is screwed into the filter nozzles from a prepared screw, clamping pliers, hanging out in different directions, but accurately, and to be removed. That now has the opportunity to begin cleansing itself inside the nozzle. You should begin with the accession of the hose to the nozzle. The next step is fixing it with a plastic strip to prevent a situation where he could fly. After that, using a can of cleaning fluid, sprinkled with output nozzle. To this end, the liquid is poured into the hose. This hose is attached to a compressor or pump. Best this can be done using a tight cap. The compressor can be switched on only very gently, without letting go of the hose. If pressure is good, then the opening in the nozzle, will be published washing fluid. Serve liquid need so much time, until it begins to vypryskivatsya uniformly, even spraying and measured flows. Such signs will indicate that the holes are clean well. Such an operation must be repeated with all the other jets. After finishing all the procedures for cleaning, start-to-assemble. To begin insert filter back into the nozzle, thus anchoring it very inscrutable, that is dense. Further, the nozzle must be cleared to put in place. Before you install everything back, you need to complete the entire mechanism lubricated with a special drug that buy is not difficult. In the next step nozzle crank until it stops in different directions.

Adjusting the collapse of the toe with his own hands

Wheel Alignment wheels. What is the convergence of wheels? Words such as convergence and the breakdown is usually all mentioned together, but, in general, they mean different things. These words are used when talking about the operation associated with the adjustment and customization of automotive suspension. Setting the right angle to the axis of the leading wheels of the car is at the heart of the action. When you look at your car in front, you may notice that the front wheel axis deviated a bit out from the vertical for a couple of degrees. In the case where the wheels placed parallel to each other, the helm will be far harder. If the car is installed power steering, this effect is not so significant for you. For each wheel camber should be the same (may be small deviations), otherwise in motion the machine will go away. Convergence is the same, but when viewed from above the car. The front edge of the wheel after the collapse of the similarity should be directed inwards. All of this is the convergence of the wheels, plus some details of the provisions of the wheels and axles the car. Which requires adjusting the alignment? The first - is to improve exchange rate stability, ie, that the car is not thrown to the side (try to let go of the wheel on a straight road, and then you will understand). Second - this in order to make the car easier to manage, increase agility and reduce the chances of skidding. And the third - to more economical use of the rubber. When you keep that setup, which is designated plant manufactures a car, you provide a safe and comfortable driving. Tight control, a weak or inaccurate response to the helm may be due to misalignment. With proper adjustment of similarity between the collapse of good you can save! When misalignment is greatly increased tire wear and fuel, as well as accelerated wear podvesochnyh nodes. When properly installed corners new tires wear out within a month. From the effects of friction, they are erased in one place more rapidly than in others. How often are required to carry out adjustment of similarity of the collapse? For our cars is required to be made every 10-15 thousand miles. Foreign cars can hold up to 30,000. When adjusting the similarity of the collapse of each year you will be able to extend the work of tires and some suspension parts. It will save you money. In some cases, you have to make an unscheduled descent-collapse: If you are driving along a large pit, was hushed up drive wheels. If you have recently had repair the undercarriage. Once clearance has been modified car. If the car begins to lead the side. If the new tires wear out quickly. With poor steering return to its original position when you exit the turn (if you do not twist the steering wheel in position, but simply let them go, the wheel itself should return to its original position). When you move through the curb or on your way met a deep pothole, then you need to check the similarity of collapse, or soon you will find a quick tire wear, which is why you will have to wait for the premature replacement of tires. Many of the causes that are associated with problematic governance, for example, poor steering response and its withdrawal in the other direction can be determined only after checking the similarity of the collapse.

Rastonirovanie car windows with his hands

Given the tightening of requirements for toning cars, as well as increased interest in his services, road patrol, many motorists are removed dubbing the film from the glass.

To heat the film is recommended to use a hairdryer construction, have a greater capacity and ability to quickly heat the film. When heated to monitor air temperature, so that it did not reach 40 degrees, otherwise you risk melt dubbing the film, which greatly complicate its removal. Carefully heat a small portion of the film, but do not remove immediately. Aim the dryer only to the film, otherwise under the influence of hot air to glass or plastic and rubber parts will crack. If you properly remove the film, the glue will remain on dubbing the film, the glass also will be clean. To remove adhesive residue, use detergents for cleaning glasses. Many motorists use rubbing alcohol or clean with warm soapy water.

To do this, cut out of hardboard one additional item, the so-called rear panel. If this item is missing, try to increase the thickness by means of thick cardboard. Attach the resulting "flat" to the plywood with glue PVA .. Then, using putty and a putty knife to give details of the status of a whole. Again, wait until dry and again oshkurivaem medium grit sandpaper. Before installing ready-made podiums can be painted or vinyl obtyanut and the work is completed. Despite the result that the finished equipment VAZ 2114 does not imply the existence of a powerful speaker system, with adequate tools and imagination, a Russian man will not give in to the seeming at first glance, a daunting task.

To this end, turns away the cork in the bottom of the crankcase, first established by his capacity for oil. Disconnect lever gearbox. To do this in the car pripodyav rubber boot lever and pressing a screwdriver locking sleeve, remove the sleeve from the slot and pull the lever. Do not try to remove the lever by removing the locking nut as it can be broken. Omit the parking brake lever to its lowest position, and by removing the two screws on the cover handbrake lever, remove it from the lever. After removing the front mat car, remove the two screws attaching the cover to the floor and remove it. Coming off a battery disconnect negative lead. From the sensor switch reversing lamps located on the right side of the gearbox disconnect the wires. Disconnect the speedometer drive shaft flex, and if a car equipped with an electronic device, then disconnect from the speed sensor connector. Remove soft tube, the transfer warm air to the air filter housing. Turns the starter mounting bolts to the clutch cover, and remove it. Unplug the fastenings to the body of the muffler, disconnect additional silencers. Unscrewing the nut intake pipe muffler to the exhaust manifold, remove the bottom receiving tube car. Remove the bracket safety driveline and removing bolts elastic coupling to the flange of the gearbox, take them out one by one. Disconnect the drive shaft, together with an elastic sleeve on the gearboxes, took him aside. Removing bolts clutch cover, remove the spring washer.

Cabin car doors with their hands

Edging doors of your vehicle is fully applicable to the changes that have impacted positively on the aesthetic rather than functional status of the car. This is done primarily to please the eye motorist, and of course those who are in the car. Often lining car doors make for increased noise insulation properties. At first glance it may seem that most sheathe the door - still quite quick and simple thing, but it is not so. After all, no wonder there are so many services that deal with skin. Attach to a standard door and sticking a piece of it - is far from meaning to sheathe the door. However, to assert that sheathe the car door with his hands, too, should not be impossible. This process will require you to have enough free time, the necessary materials, tools and, of course, a creative approach that would make some kind of punch line, a piece that makes your car does not look like their brothers of iron. It is the latter features a trim doors with his hands on the same process in a specialized studio or service, even a very elite. For covering the door is most commonly used leather, whether it be a natural material or a good substitute. The most essential feature to be selected for cladding material - sufficient ductility, it is necessary to avoid not want wrinkles and sagging skin. Also, care must be taken and the presence of foam, if you certainly want to improve the sound insulation upgraded doors. Of course, you will need glue, which also requires little choice - the glue should not eat the skin, and especially the foam. Often on the casing of the door thinking motorists who purchase a powerful sound system. The question arises as to place correspondingly more powerful speakers in the doors, usually the front. For this we have apart cladding material to prepare the material of which will be made the podium for the speaker, most often in this role serves thick plywood or particle board. To facilitate the construction of manufactured catwalk to drill a large number of holes that would not affect the structural strength. To not make the podium entirely of wood (it is very difficult and time consuming) use construction foam, which is applied in the framework of the podium, and after it dries cut it too much quantity, grind. Thin plywood or hardboard is not suitable, since they are prone to various changes in form, whether bending or swelling. It certainly will affect the appearance of the date of the car's interior, and, exactly, no one is happy. So far one of the key values ??is the quality of select materials. Perhaps this is the most crucial moment, as in the preparatory work and in the skin of doors in general. Job of covering the doors in the home (garage) conditions, it is more convenient to hold together, because often there will be a need for something to hold, tighten, fix, and so on. We should not forget that not everything can happen at once and, ideally, be patient. The adage about the first pancake is not born from scratch. However, about the fact that nothing is impossible to forget, too, should not be.
