Kancil 660 (M) major overhaul

[DanzEterna]

hi guys,
my kancil 660 (M) 1999 that served me well for the past 8 years gave up on me last 2 weeks, the crank nut was jammed, unable to remove it unless send to machine shop to get it welded & might damage the internals, i had no choice but to get another 660 engine, as i dont plan to turbocharged it cos i plan to pass it down to my wife & get myself another car.

anyways i decided to let my mech go ahead on changing to another 660 engine & the costs breakdown as below.

1.timing belt set rm95
2.exhaust gasket rm10
3.head gasket rm15
4. gearbox oil rm16x2 = rm32
5.speedometer cable rm35
6.drive shaft rm120x2 = rm240
7.front wheel bearing rm65
8.engine oil + oil filter rm70
9.fan switch rm45
10.spark plug rm15
11.welding aircond gas hose rm30
12.top up aircond gas rm40
13.top radiator hose rm25
14.service radiator & coolant rm95
15.1 pc engine kosong 660 rm650
16.labour charges rm650
17. steering rack + allignment + balancing + horn button + wash engine RM250

a grand total of rm2360

i just wanna know is the price reasonable of expensive?

thanks.

seems reasonable enough...

one thing though, why not go to 850cc? got higher torque and the FC different is not that much

 

[DanzEterna]

haha sifu papagoines...i knew u would reply...
anyways i just wanna maintain @ 660 cc.....summore 850 engine costs higher....
& my pomen got stock for 660, although quite pricey but i checked the engine was in good condition.

Haha OK, point taken :embarassed:

from the looks of it, your kancil will felt nearly brand new if the mech knows what he's doing

 

[DanzEterna]

yeah, hope that it would serve me for another 10 yrs...
cos used during weekdays 30kms only to work & home....service twice a year....
so should be able to last that long rite...

papagoines...just wanna ask u bout l6 turbo engine...
my lil bro in law just ploked into his kancil 850.....any review on that or pros & cons bout the engine?

mean time will post the progress of my car when its done within this week.

 

[papagoines]

L6 engine + chassis is the same... so my guess is that his engine is about the same as an L5 engine...

izzit 3 or 4 cylinder? I've only experience the 4cyl turbo variant so far
