What i do is fill up premium and add a fuel treatment once a month, never got any pinging

BTW octane boosters are a waste of money, as it only raises the RON by 0.1 so it's actually cheaper to use premium instead of a booster...

Not all are created equally

since Kamla said that 6% sheit, stickers has been using super due to the distance of the daily commute.
She barely crosses 3k, I cruise at 3k and will sometimes go to 5 or 6. absolutely no pinging whatsoever.

Your blower might be going or the Card (forgot the name of it) might be going happened to me with my 14 just now it would uncontrollably change speeds

The ones locally are over prices. Like $800 I think. I brought in one. Cost me about $400 for d most. Had to cut d ends doh cuz it was a bit too short to fit under d plastic on d side of the roof.i told the supplier it was too short an he refunded me the 50usd. So I payed jus for shippin which was about $50tt.lol

EVA Unit-01 · Postby **EVA Unit-01** » July 12th, 2014, 11:25 am

^^^thanks man, but i don't mind paying the money to get a proper fitting one.

I had ordered one before and it was a bit too short. After a few months, it cracked in half and flew the phoq of a night i was driving down the highway :shock:

so definitely not going that way again...

ronsin1 · Postby **ronsin1** » July 13th, 2014, 6:36 am

so yesterday I changed the plug seals and tappet pan cover gasket when we took out the cover there was a lot of sludge build up on the rocker arms and it was hard I am in shock as I would rigorously change oil on time and use MOBIL1 I have only deviated from this brand once and Use Valvoline once.

Postby **Dave** » July 13th, 2014, 9:12 am

Some ppl have reported that Mobil doesn't have high detergent levels so it doesn't clean good.
Either use a 15/40 a few times with quick changes or full engine with diesel and let stand over night and then drain.

cinco · Postby **cinco** » July 13th, 2014, 11:22 am

Switch to valvoline max life it will clean it up. Mobil is rubbish

I have the CS5W driver's side mirror without the glass for sale. I believe its the one with the 5 wires on it and it could work on the CS2 Lancer. Make an offer and take it.

Im getting a flat spot around 3k almost like a dead peddle, so its either above 3k or below.

did a tune up recently, plugs ect, still trying to figure it out.
4g15 dohc.

would a dirty throttle body cause this?

I get the same deadspot bro...saw the problem come up on a few online sites as well...I think you need to get a bigger fuel pressure regulator to solve the issue...not sure what else could/would have to be done to help..

Would look into this also. Thanks Ted!

A walbro and a regulator could never be the solution. There is something more fundamentally wrong. Also if more fuel is required then there are cheaper and simpler solutions

What you think could be the problem Dave ?

Ted_v2 · Postby **Ted_v2** » July 14th, 2014, 8:58 pm

And what are some cheaper solutions?

PapaC · Postby **PapaC** » July 15th, 2014, 10:27 am

Imagine is over $5k for a front windscreen by the dealer for the CS3.
A friend paying #38oo for a front windscreen fro a new Kia Sportage before labour.
Why Mitsu parts so expensive? Priced a front bumper, about $6k, and the front skirtng is $7k

Ted_v2 · Postby **Ted_v2** » July 15th, 2014, 5:32 pm

A man said. 2400 for a ck bumper with fogs. Foreign used.

I paid 2500$ for a nose cut with radiator fans and lights bumpers ect. Just a year ago.

Fellas want to know if the 2006 CS3 type front bumper can fit on a 2006 CS2 lancer?

turbo_beast369 · Postby **turbo_beast369** » July 16th, 2014, 12:27 pm

kjaglal76v2 · Postby **kjaglal76v2** » July 16th, 2014, 1:38 pm

nissan4life · Postby **nissan4life** » July 16th, 2014, 3:20 pm

Fellas advice needed.CS2A
Driving around after lunch with tank between half and 1/4 mark. Not really paying attention i see my facking fuel lamp on the dash come on.
Drove to the nearest gas station and thought i had to full up.
Car only took 22.45 litres, which is about $60 worth and it was spitting back out gas.
Checked my gas lines in the front, no leaks so im assuming its the gas sender unit below the back seat or do these cars come with gas floats?
Which one of these things playing up,anyone ever experience this problem before?

idlemind · Postby **idlemind** » July 16th, 2014, 9:37 pm

Had that problem already lol.
Remove the float under the back seat and make sure the metal arm making contact with the copper sensors every time the float travels up and down.

Chances are the metal arm has play on it so when it stops making contact the Guage reads as empty. My fix was I simply bent the metal arm so it touches the copper contacts.
