fuel filter

have u ever face this b4?

it is the first day or ramadhan...and obviously u r hungry...u came of out the office a bit late than permitted (430 dah leh balik tapi balik dlm kul 530)...and the road is jammed since everybody (including people yg tak puasa :P) is rushing home..

then u managed to stop and buy some food at the pasar ramadhan for berbuka puasa...and on the way back...about another 5km to reach home (which is already around 630pm), your car brakes down..yes...the car brakes down...

praying that this is a dream, i wish..but this happens to me last thursday, on the first of ramadhan..memang tuhan nak menduga aku nih.. :) and aku accept dengan redha...

memang this is the first time my car broke down..tak pernah..sejak pakai wira dulu lagi...so aku cam a bit cuak..tapi berkat ramadhan aku rasa, aku alhamdulillah tenang and terus call my borther... luckily he's already at home..

upon waiting for my bro to come, i tried to start the car, but failed...then i remembered that i just changed the timing belt a few days b4..i straight away called the pormen and ask him...he troubleshoot..via phone lagi..and alhamdulillah he confirmed that it is not the timing belt that causes the problem...it has something to do with the fuel pump..sementara nunggu abang aku sampai, siap leh jumpa member lagi, intan, asyida, aiza..sume pakai jalan tuh...and they stopped and asked what they can help...terima kasih byk!

well, that is what he says...so i pk i better wait for my bro to arrive..and in a few minutes, he arrived and we went straight to look for any shops nearby...and finally dpt jgk jumpa kedai depan jusco..

and luckily the pormen tu agree utk pegi nengok kete...after packing a few things, they followed us...we took them to the "breakdown scene" :P.. and you know what...once the pormen turns the key to start the car, the car actually starts! tadi bila aku try tak nak plak start...

kira tak pe la..tapi we asked them to take the car to the workshop to check what's wrong..and the day after they called and informed me that the fuel relay is the culprit..but there's definitely a price to pay RM200! nak buat camne, tukar jer la...

so bila dah siap aku pun pegi ambik kete...and on saturday we decided to go to subang to carik mende bukak posa...and on our way there, our car breakdown again! this time just after sunway pyramid...

i took aliff and mia out of the car and put them under a tree near the kaki jalan..bahaya satu, panas pun lagi satu..so better for us to stay clear off the road... and i straight away called the promen and they said they will come in a short while..

dlm 1/2 hour they arrived and skali lagi diaorg leh startkan kete, took it to somewhere safe.."kita tukar fuel filter" they said...fuel filter plak...hari tu fuel relay...brape plak la nak kena ni...

and after changing the fuel filter, they cleaned the throttle body..sebab diaorg kata dah kotor..memang dah kotor la..rasa tak penah cuci pun...and bila dah siap, diaorg ckp RM20 jer...pheww lega tul...ingat RM400 ker.... :P or maybe this is the problem and not the relay as what they told me yesterday! alahai...sabo jer la...

what an experience...really!

and alhamdulillah kete tu dah tak buat perangai lagi...doakan dia tak buat perangai lagi...

amin...
