What a nice read from MalaysiaWaves.com
Some quote below:
So, I took out my savings and set an appointment with Malaysian Tractors in Puchong. I can’t remember the date, but I do know it was on a Friday. I remember sending the car to the MT workshop and then going to the office after that by taxi. They told me that it will take about one day to finish, and my car would be ready the same day by 4 o’clock.
At two o’clock I got a friend to send me to a nearby bank, and I draw out a Banker Cheque for the amount. I can’t remember the amount, but I think it cost me about RM5k+. I do not feel like carrying 5k in cash. I told Mr Lau I will pay Malaysian Tractor with Banker Cheque and my reasoning for it, and he agreed.
And after NGV installation finished:
After taking my car from Malaysian Tractor, I went straight to the station near my house, which is the Subang Airport station. I filled up full tank and it cost me RM 8.00. After driving I discover that for a full tank of NGV, I can get about 130km to 160 km. In short, it’s about one day’s drive. Yes, I was forced to fill up everyday.
In the first 3 days, I noticed my car chugged when on NGV, but when I shift to Petrol it was OK. I brought the car back and Mr Lau says that since my car is second hand, he suggested I change all that is related to my ignition system i.e. air filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires etc. So I spent another RM1300 to install a new ignition system. I discovered the performance of my car improved on NGV and the chugging problem disappeared.
