changing of EO and spark plugs, u guys can count me in too.. coz, i have diy myself b4..

 

After draining the EO, unscrew the existing oil filter and replace the new one.......it's that easy......

But you haven't drain the engine... Where got the bottle?

dude i have a metal pan that i use to collect my engine oil last time...

i can bring it den we can drain out, pour in the new one den use back the bottles...

 

but the problem is the bike shop will help us dispose?

i hope that they dun have to pay for disposing...

[kaginah]

i also got thought of doing it at night but the problem we might face is that the shops are all closed and it will be quite sian when suddenly we find some parts that we need is not available or without it we cannot do anything... lan lan suck thumb...

=-,May 25 2005, 05:01 PM] guys... Since all of us going to the DIY, wanna MO some stuff like Spark Plugs/EO/Coolant?

i think if we do this every session, we will face alot alot of problems...

 

scally ppl order den forget to pay, or order and pay liao den fail to turn up, or order and pay and we buy den he say dun WAH LAN!!!

 

so i thought of it liao....

 

since we are opposite LAB, we meet there discussion time we consolidate the money and shopping list, den we approach ah boy for the best price for that quantity...

 

we can come up with one representative for one item...

 

ask, bargain, buy, save...

 

problem solve, less trouble...

Hardware shop shd have it....a handle with a leather belt rite??? Or the 1 which is a cap covering the oil filter????

 

Got check with the rest who wanna DIY got not???

[lindavw]

My style is I used a 5 Litres or 4 litres old engine oil bottle cut it so the oil drained out can be contained in it... then after tightening back the drain nut, poured in the new EO, then trf back the used EO in the 5 L bottle to the few 1 L bottles. then ride to the my bikeshop juz leave the bottle of used EO at the corner of their shop.

the tool with a handle + leather belt will do just fine to remove the oil filter .......as the chinese saying goes.......black cat, white cat, as long as can catch mouse is a good cat....

Yr 1st outing the timing seems not appropriate unless ppl not working/studying/etc......

 

Shdn't it be adjusted to the late afternoon/early evening so that more ppl can attend....dun tink LAB close so early bah.

 

The wkend DIY session shd not be an issue......however, date not set yet.....
