^^ Nice click buddy, you maintain the car very well! The white color is really a gem.
I'm missing my alto very much, its only been two days after i parted with my love(alto) but it feels like 2 years.

Hi Aneesh, i see your ride is sooo cool and kept clean very much.how do you treat the engine bay? specially the electric wiring and equipment. its important to keep the engine clean so it cools down faster so increase in the performance.
i guess its time for a alloy upgrade too.
if you get a fog lamp wire it outside the ignition key so you done have to use the headlight lamps switch every time to switch on the fog lamps. i have wire them separately so i can switch them on/off any time i want as its has a direct line to battery.
i can switch on/off it on daytime and rain too but no need to switch on the parking.

Nothing special,After washing car,Open the hood,fills windscreen liquid and uses a cloth to clean engine bay too.

Yep.Out of money.

Like wiring horns? Separate wiring from battery?

yes it good but want remove the dust.. use some good (like 3M ,Wurth) de-greaser and clean it off once in a while. it will remove the dust,tar,grease,oil so it want get deposited as black grits in the engine equipment.

yeah.. it want be a easy but a expert electrician can help you to find the correct wire from the ignition key wiring harness.

Its fine,No need for another guy,Will do it as a DI.

Yes,Replaced it on the last 45k Service.

Do we have to clean injectors? When should we clean it? Its been nearly 49.4k and i think,hadn't done before.

 

[kamalb]

IMO its good to clean every 30K - 40K. it increase the fuel consumption and remove the sludge's from engine and i have notice the engine sound gets better.

hmm i have a bit jerking too.

 

[kamalb]

may be two reasons water gone in the petrol tank or fuel filter ,change the fuel filter and try to remove the water from tank.
else need the injector and the air intake clean and replace the air filter.
they will remove the jerking.

No water in tank,Fuel Filter is old.

Air Filter is only 5k old,no probs. Will a clogged fuel filter cause jerking?

 

[kamalb]

yeah my tech tole me it could be a problem if the fuel filer was clogged or if water was in petrol. i had same problem and in the beginning and after running some 2000Km it was fine but i did avoid some fuel pumps as i suspect them they are full of water.

hmm no way for water i think,I suspect the fuel filter. Anyway will check it and replace if necessary.Fuel filter means one near to the tank right?
