Re: Hello from Romania

Thanks guys! I started modding the LWB as it is a bit more stable and comfortable + the interior space. In the winter we get a fair amount of snow and the roads are not cleared, so it's also used a bit on road. This having IFS is a bit more fragile than a Samy or Jimny. But if you are a bit careful,...

Re: Water temperature + stalling

Yes it does, it starts without any issues, and it runs as well. Just from time to time it starts acting out.

The temperature thing is constant.

Re: Hello from Romania

Got it now. Those were introduced in the 50's, we are so used to them that they don't seem so special or worth mentioning :)

Water temperature + stalling

I have a 1.6 16v Vitara, which sometimes, when the engine is warm it doesn't keep the idle. It dies. It doesn't happen every time and I could not work out a pattern. After it acts out, if you keep running it, the symptoms disappear, only to come back later. Has anybody else encountered this issue? H...

Re: Hello from Romania

Thanks guys! @Rick - I have the 1.6 16v. It's no match for the V6, but there are a lot of them here and parts are really cheap. Plus, I think I was lucky with a very good engine. It pulls really well in 1st and 2nd, compared to a friends identical Vit, and it burns a surprisingly low amount of fuel....
