The reamer part is one of the most important. In my case. Technician didnt use the reamer in the kit. Maybe he lost it. Purpose of reamer is to make hole big enough for string plug to fit. He used screw driver (as shown in my previous picture) to puncture the belt/ply but the rubber part didnt get bigger. That was why he couldnt insert the plug and had to use oil as lubricant. Dapat bumili sila ng reamer.
In case of string repair plug kit. Meron kasama reamer tool sa kit. But in the mushroom patch. Wala kasama reamer so dapat alam ng technician size ng hole. This is the reason experienced dapat ang technician sa mushroom. If 6mm ang stem ng mushroom. Dapat exactly 6mm rin drill bit?
Even if buy ako new tire. Dapat ma repair tama yun tire para sa reserva or in case bili ng tallier and kabit sa iba. Before I bought used tires (oblong na pala, dapat maging illegal old tire shop 'no).
By the way, I read in the subaru manual wag change one tire ng unit only because madamage ang so called drive train ng AWD. Walang AWD car mo?
Sabi ng isang website "Replacing just one or two tires on an AWD vehicle could cause unnecessary wear and tear on your drivetrain, or confuse the traction control system to think that you are frequently losing traction. A new tire is larger in diameter than one of the same brand, type and size that's part way through its tread life.".
So if wala competent mushroom repair dito. Im forced to buy 4 new tyres just because hindi tama yun pasak ginawa sa akin with oil added. Puwede pa dapat 10 yrs tires ko.
Add on ba automatic tire pressure monitoring system mo or built in? Ano best brand and model na add on?

January 1st, 2022 05:50 PM #92Tire Rack in the states will shave a tire down for you so you don't need to replace all four if you only need one. Pag order mo you specify what the tread depth is on your other three tires and they shave the new tire down to match.
Ewan ko lang if there's any store that does this locally.

Last December 28 when I had the pasak (with oil added to the hole) done. The technician used an impact wrench. I couldn't find at google the estimated torque for this nor find the information in thread search dito sa tsikot. So I want to ask. What is the estimated torque of the impact wrench used? What size is the impact wrench used?
After that. I bought a torque wrench at lazada to check the nuts are at least 120 newton.meter or 88 ft. foot torque and because I realized naka attached lang wheel mo sa 5 nuts. So it's good to check from time to time kung tama torque ng nuts or naka tighten.
Bukas when I try to have the pasak repair hole repaired or replaced. I want to make sure tama torque used. So this message is related to pasak subject.
I have used torque tool before, it is very useful. I used a torque screw driver in tightening the Siemens circuit breakers with GFCI after the Meiji receptacle GFCI kept tripping sa electric fan or waterpick motor. I may be one of the few houses in the country with complete GFCI circuit breakers installed at house.
Another concern. Naka experience kayo na using the car included screw jack and na fall yun car while using changing tire (at street or at time when changing spare tires for example)? I'm justifying whether I should buy a jack stand or puwede na gamit yun screw car jack for very rare time you will change a tire.
The questions are all related to pasak because these procedures are used in pasak shops so I don't want to start a new thread but just getting some quick answers here so I know if my first online purchase this year will be a jack stand that I'll use only once in the next 10 years. Hassle to put it in the car trunk at all times? Thanks.

January 2nd, 2022 10:20 AM #95My questions.
1. Ano torques used in the impact wrench? Is it hydraulic? Kasi if ma overtighten ang nuts ay mabasag nuts (masira rin yun bolts)?
2. Very necessary ang car stand? Kasi I haven't used the car since Dec 28. Bukas balak ko palit reserba na tire before going to the service center pero ordinary screw car jack lang gamit ko. Hindi pa ako naka palit tire so I wonder if ma slip yun screw car jack and absolutely necessary to buy a car stand and put under the suspensions.
My last questions po. Hehe. Sori for the questions but I have been googling it yesterday and couldn't find the answers especially the torques of the impact wrench used and what wattage (based on the video).

January 2nd, 2022 10:34 AM #961. Not sure what the torque is, alam ko they just run the wrench (I know its compressed air-driven) till it can't spin anymore. Cons lang niyan sa sobrang sikip, ang hirap na baklasin by hand (happened to me to the point the lugnuts got rounded and I had to use a chisel to just break it).
2. Kung sandali lang naman like changing a tire, ok lang wala, especially if screw-type yun jack. Delikado kapag extended work gagawin mo and yung hydraulic-type/bottle jack, dahil baka bigla tumagas/leak yung seals.

Scissor jacks are relatively safe for emergency use (as in, low duty cycle use) such as changing a flat. For prolonged work or frequent use, alligator jack + jack stands. Particularly when working on brakes or suspension parts.
The thing that people forget is to put wheel chocks on the other tires. For example is when servicing rear tires on a rear-drive vehicle. Walang lock yung front tires so it's critical that they are chocked.

If purely for City driving then get the Emax7. since you already have other cars for longer drives....
