Hi there,
I own Proton Saga year 1992 1.5 magma engine (4G15, I think) and its engine life gonna finish soon because too many smoke come out already. So I think instead of changing to new engine (low budget) what can I do to rebuild this engine back to normal or to become a fighter. So I need your advice here with budget 1K, please list down what I should buy to upgrade my machine, or do you have any idea where to get a cheap engine. Remember! the budget is no more than RM1000 and maybe still using the same engine (rebuild)... Thanks
 
get a 2nd hand unit weber..around RM500-RM700

opss sorry..the price does not include in rebuilding ur engine...
 
1k , i suggest u go to the halfcut shop
get a nice 4g15 engine
fix it in , better move is u find those who converting 4g15 to newer engines , grab theirs ler
 
use the 1K to overhaul your engine, the left overs used to buy engine oil.... can't really think of anything to do with 1K..
 
ya.... either rebuild the current engine or get another engine !!! only that with 1k !! yr car is quite old so even after changing/rebuliding the engine u may still need to repair/replace other parts. i would prefer rebuilding coz then u can change the internals, rebore & do some things to make yr engine a bit more powerful .

just asking.

how much is best to offer for 4g15? and how much is cost for the whole process to change engine
 
I suggest u save up your money to transplant better engines.

No worth to maintain ur current engine.
 
put weber la, nahh this one..:D

i got 1 halfcut 4g15 n weber for sale....1k take all...
 
save the cash really...at least get 2k la...u nvr know when that extra 1k might come in handy. it's like that one la sometimes...set a side at least 1k for misc items.

i'm sure u've got enough will power to save up another 1k correct?
 
change ur engine with 1k or save ur money to get a better engine or go buy TOTO or magnum u might the lucky 1 then get a nicer car....

weber shorten the lifespan of ur engine rather than lengthen le taikor...u wanna kill his engine sibo

how long can an engine take anyway ?? 1 year, 2 years or 3 years??? all engine will have shorter lifespan depending on ur right foot and the wrong mods, thats the thing tat will shorten the lifespan of an engine.... weber only feeds in more fuel and not killing the engine in anyway, then if i am using that u suppose that i will be changing in another 6 months?? even if i do change engine, i will still buy back the same model of engines for usage and to satisfy my taste of modding from something that is totally stock standard, a modder gets satisfied by wat he mods and the pleasure of driving one, and not getting a HIGH horsepower engine and dunno where to start modding, becos ur engine already has high horsies....so apa mau mod???

u ask americans or aussies fella la taikor, most carbie uses webers or other aftermarket high performance carbs to replace their stock carbs, then u think wat will happen to them??? engine kong also kah?? i know a few ppl in aussie which are all die hard fans of weber and solex..all of them are using those carbs...and its been 4 years..since i know them and b4 i join zth..and their engine till now is in perfect condition..except for a beetle owner la which he has to change cyclinder cos cracking la...

sorry for being long winded.
