sir, puti kasi ang usok na lumalabas sa tambutso ko, ang sabi kasi sa akin ng kakilala kong mekaniko ay kailangan na daw ng top overhaul. meron pa nga daw ima-machine shop dun kapag nagpa-top overhaul. tama ba yung suggestion nya na top overhaul kapag maputi ang usok?

most shops will charge you about 2.5 - 3.5 k for a gas engine overhaul (labor only)...i suggest you go to a shop that will allow you to watch the procedure. it will be a good experience (if you have time to spare).usually takes 2 - 3 hours for a top overhaul. needless to say they need to perform a compression leakage test before they open the engine, the result of which should be given to you.
