afrasay,
is there a way to make a virtual form for posting where they can fill in the blanks of the vital questions we need to ask:
a. v.i.n.
b. make
c. model
d. year
e. engine type/model
f. drivetrain type
g. mileage
h. repair history
i. symptoms/observations
this way we eliminate all the possible wrong guesses and get straight to the point. the longer the vehicles remain a mystery or puzzle the longer it remains unsafe or the longer it will contribute to the pollution. just a suggestion. thanks

Doubt it. IF people don't even bother to follow the basic rules and regulations of posting messages in the forums, would you think they would bother answering that list?

ghosthunter,
if they are serious about asking for help and maybe desperate after having spent too much for misdiagnosis and pin-the-the-tail-on-the-donkey, i think they will. it is between half empty or half full. depends how you look at it.

ghosthunter,
i'm with you on this. thanks for sharing with me the frustrations of these people who thought we could read their minds. filipinos are normally born stubborn with the "bahala na" attitude as we know that. but if the virtual format does not allow them to post if the blanks are not filled in and filled in properly, then they will be forced to follow filling the necessary blanks. the format should be fill in necessary info and some yes/no questions. if they are smart enough to be online, i think they are smart enough to follow simple instructions. kaizen-constant improvement.
thanks
