    Never trust car/mobile/aircon repair shops, 2nd hand car dealers, property/insurance agents, & renovation contractors in SG. Many dishonest blood suckers out there. Always get a few quotes. Never give business to those suckers and make sure they close shop asap! Too many Singaporeans are too easy going rewarding dishonesty in our society. Avoid those flashy ones who drive expensive cars and wear luxury brands😢😢😢

    Round light is easier to install, square light will need very accurate alignment to look good
    If you choose same fans for 10 locations, got to make sure the fans are not to near to each other because the remote will turn on multiple fans at one time, only way is to adjust the frequency in the remote that should have few frequencies options.

    Everywhere you go, there are unscrupulous individuals. In Singapore, the high cost of living can pressure some people to overcharge, as they strive to cover their costs and break even. It’s wise to seek second opinion in Malaysia. Take the time to identify trustworthy shops. Pray lah. that no scammers will approach you, even for a single cent. The enemy will not rob you of it.🙏

    Fans must get the air circulator option 😊 not the fan fan as typical . Air circulator fan can move air around the room. If the air in the room is hot it will not blow hot air down to the room. Cause it moves the air around even though the air is hot it will feel cooling 😊

    Mr. Loo, your regular car workshop didn't replace the spark plugs during your regular servicing?
    Next time similar car problem, you can save more by removing the plug yourself and use sand paper to clean off the carbon on the plug and put it back.

      Spark plugs are self-cleaning. At 450 -500 celcius spark plugs’s combustion process burns away carbon deposits that build up on the insulator nose.

      I hv similar problem like Mr Loo about 6 months ago. My spark plugs were ok, found 2 of my 4 plug cables mid-fire; diagnosed n replaced by sg workshop nearby my home, costed about $200+. Subsequently I bought a set of 4 cables from Shopee at $50+ n installed, keep old set as spare.
      Lesson learnt, when yr car is jerking, either replace spark plugs or its cable . Noted that diy cable-replacement is much easier than replacing plugs.

  • @stephenang499
    @stephenang499 2 години тому +1

    Mr Loo, I noticed you complain about the heat even in your house, seems to be the side is West facing, you may correct me if I am wrong, but if your side is West facing you should prioritize the awning to be built at the side. There is no real reason to have a awning extending out as you would not be able to have BBQ parties in front due to the awning cover.
    As for shelter from rain entering and exiting the car, the original car porch should be able to provide sufficient shelter.
    Anyway RM500 for the spark plugs was still a rip-off. BOSCH iridium spark plugs are about $20 each and you can easily replace them your self with a spark plug wrench.

  • @wilfredho2924

    Very good searching for services and goods value for money. Car workshop in Malaysia is good at diagnosing car problems because so many cars on the road and also long usage of vehicles up to 30 - 40 years with recon engines and parts.
    Good diagnose. Sudden jerk of car and not smooth could be due to either spark plugs itself or defect on spark plug terminal wire.

    Yes, it is appalling that your scientists don’t know that yet, but you have to remember who taught your scientists - people in your culture living in this time, who of course don’t know it themselves. But you will know it, probably within 30 or 40 years. That’s when science and religion finally get married. Science finds its true god and religion finds its true guide. The original intention of science and intellectualism in general was to guide religion, and the purpose for science was to find a god - a god of nature, a god of all beings, a god of love and wisdom - so that it wouldn’t do some of the negative things that science has done in your time. Certainly you can look out now at science and say, “What wonderful creations!” yet at the same time look at the same creations and aspects of those creations and say, “Oh, but the way you’re doing this needs to be entirely redone,” to say nothing of creations that science would rather not talk about.

    What do you expect when you keep electing a govt that every year wants to push SG to become the most expensive city in the world? Also everytime when asked to spend more on social welfare the govt will then ask you back where is the money going to come from? So of course when the govt is all about money, the businesses will then of course also learn from the govt and try to squeeze their customer hard right? So how ironical to support a money-minded capitalist style high price govt in SG and they scoot off to JB to enjoy low cost of living.

      When you say low cost of living in JB, have you seen the salaries that they are paying local staff in JB? Cost of living and salaries often come hand in hand. Not fair to think about salaries in SG but cost of living in Malaysia.
      Also not trying to side PAP or any government, asking where the money is coming from is the responsible thing to do. The easy thing would have been to borrow and print more money and make citizens happy and win votes and pass on the debt/problem to our next generation (this is what many of the other governments are doing now) which is extremely irresponsible.
