If you want to save cost can perhaps try diesel engine oil at the next oil change first. The engine may be a little dirty over the years.

I've used bardahl diesel oil + marvel mystery oil to revive a 3 years dead wira. From blowing white smoke it took 1 week of driving to get it to have 0 smoke & condensation like new in the morning. Sometimes the piston rings are just a bit sticky, don't necessarily have to overhaul straight. :burnout:
For now my wira 1tank can go around 400km RM80+ a tabk. So far so good now. Next month will go and check some issue. The car suddenly engine mati. Dunno why everything still on. Push to N then start back is ok.
My suspect is the fuel injection. Since if is fuel pump issue the car will goyang very kuat because hard to pump the fuel,but my car didn't have such problem. Will diagnose agn when checking.

I had that problem on mine also, it was the 02 Sensor, crank sensor & throttle body dying all at once...

You can also check the plug to the air flow sensor. If its a bad connection there engine will die off.

Wira Update.

After Cuci the TB the TB response is good. But when I terus tekan minyak rpm go up it suddenly have a laggy feel. Is like the TB open close open close feeling when from 2k to 5k rpm. The mechanic say take bsck to him to check. I think the worst case is the TB is going to die already. Hahahahaha
He also help me chg a map sensor on the speedometer now everything is fine. Juz need to settle TB issue only.

Random Post Every 5 Minutes

i had a hunch, touched one wire that goes to the fuel pump and that wire felt kinda panas.

what could be the main cause? had a mech the fuel pump changed and did not supervise the installation, which i usually wud rather do myself.

was afraid it could melt something under there (external fuel pump).
and does it have something to do with the car dies every 5 minutes of idle?

gotta get pics later.
