LOL!...he's my neighbour lah...so, what is his feedback to you?..like to hear both good and bad. In fact, he did more than just grounding..I got five levels..he did 4 only.

[loyjwe]

[Ah Pek]

CLS..not cheap if you asked me but still cheaper than dismantleing engine block and doe coating. Similar products cost double and less the quantity that I having it now.

[loyjwe]

to add on to your question, all version of s4 needle will sweep when key is turned on? what's wrong if needle nv sweep at all?

[lutein]

Yeah my S4 Vtec 1 doesn't sweep at all. Tested battery was okay.

[Ah Pek]

i mean 5 level that u said. whats the 5 level? haha

 

1. Proper Grounding

2. Fuel premix cleanser for valves and carbs cleansing

3. Blended eo (to suit your bike) with right add on

4. CCA Booster

5. CLS (engine rebuild)

 

The last two is expensive but affordable.

Meter swipe when press the start button means that your battery is weak. Get ready to push start your bike if it dies completely!

[eedwinn]

Not all versions, I think only Vtec 2 and above will have the meter swipe when turned on.

SparkerS1 is right...you have to take care of your bike. Not sure what leaking are you referring to. Usually if its oil, gasket replacement should do the job but if its coolant, it's bad..the water jacket likely cracked liao and this is caused by poor maintenance of the cooling system. The main culprit is overheating and can be caused by constricted coolant hoses (water boiled faster as flow rate slows down..engine heats up in extreme temperature and the rust holds the heat further) which has rust and contamination in the inner tube body. Rubber don't rust but these rust..etc..are caused by the radiator and it all started when tap water or mineral water is used instead of proper distilled water.

AH many thanks for the info... yes i think it has something to do with faulty radiator piping.... thinking of gettng a old super 4 next time when 2A.... Projector or Version.... so have to take care and try to see if got this problem... quite pricey to rectify....

It will sound an alarm if your cashcard is still in the unit when u turn off ur ignition.. To remind u not to leave ur cashcard behind..
