Why is your Daewoo lanos using to much fuel?
There could be all the usual things like tune up, too hard driving conditions, underinflated tires, etc. However, i have a Lanos and it's really not good on gas for such a small car. I bought it new, and it always gave dissapointing gas mileage. Our Honda Civic gets like 10 more mpgs! So don't expect too much from Lanos.
What is the difference between hot and beautiful?
There is a huge difference between hot and beautiful. Hot is a word that describes appearance whereas beautiful describes personality.
How do you flush the radiator on a 96 contour and where is the radiator flush plug?
I have a '95 Contour but I'm sure it's the same for a '96. Firstly, there isn't a drain plug for the radiator. Sorry. But you can drain your radiator and coolant reservoir. When looking at your coolant reservoir or expansion tank, there will be two hoses that come out. One top and one bottom. Follow the bottom hose down to a conjunction of 3-4 hoses. There will be a hose that exits the bottom of the conjunction and runs under the car going towards the back of the car. It will be a fairly large hose with a hose crimp on it. undo the crimp and slide it back and CAREFULLY pull the hose off the tube. It will probably blast straight into the frame so be prepared. After letting all the fluids drain, You can reconnect the hose and run a radiator cleaner or a radiator flush through your radiator using your expansion tank. I would advise while you have everything drained, disconnect the two hoses from the reservoir and unbolt it from under the hood, and then clean it out. When I did it, it looked like a mix of mud and sludge coming out. Sorry for the long answer, but hopefully it's thorough and helps someone out.

How can you change Daewoo Lanos rear shocks?
Use axle stands for safety. Jack up both rear sides of car, remove rear wheels. Use another jack under individual How_do_you_remove_rear_spring_to_put_new_one_on_daewoo_lanos, remove single bolt at bottom of shock absorber, lower jack under wheel, this will allow shocker to disconnect, press down on hub, spring can be removed by hand, replace spring and do same for other side. Both can be done at once if you have enough jacks or axle stands.

How do you reset the air bag light on a lanos?
I tried and tried to get that light to go off, i was told the airbags would still function properly with the light on or not. so if it really bugs you just take out the 10 screws that hold the guage cluster in the dashboard and remove the light bulb. that's what i did.

Or you can try and reset it by disconnecting the battery for min of 5 mins, but make sure you have the code to reprograme the radio
Try disconnecting the seat belt light connector under your drivers seat, then turn engine on, air bag should complete self test. Then turn engine off and reconnect seat belt light and all should be working fine.
Why does your foglamp fuse keep blowing when you put it in?
Either you've stuck a bulb that's too high-powered in the lamp, or there's a damage to the wiring loom.
Why does a 2000 Lanos Daewoo make a humming noise while driving striaght and only turning left?
Usually there is some kind of debree or dirt in the system clogging a valve. The fluid has to in or out of the cylinder. Its either the inlet or return valve not letting the fluid flow freely it is being forced thru usually causing the noise. Try flushing the system or replacing the rack.
I had this problem. Found out it was the Axle Shaft on the drivers side that was going out. After driving for about another month it progressively got worst. I took it to the dealer and it cost about $300 for the replacement.
What is the average life of car tires?
Too many variables.
If you only drove 100 miles a year and you kept the car in a garage then the answer is likely to be a long time. However, take it to a track day and see a set of tyres disappear in smoke in a day or less depending on, again, many factors, inc' front wheel drive "v" rear wheel drive, agressive nature of the driving etc.
Your tyres have a tyre wear indicator throughout the tread tyre, it's known as the bridge. There are legal requirements as to how deep tyres in the UK must be and across what % of the tyre. Is this what you are asking?
If in doubt call in at a garage or Google for the legal bottom line.
Inspect your tyres for wear and tear at least once a month I'd suggest and beware extra bulges in the sidewall, especially on the front tyres.
If in doubt - have them replaced.
How do you change the oil on a 1999 Daewoo Lanos?
Getting Ready
Steps:
1. Gather necessary tools and materials (refer to Necessary Items list). If you plan to change your oil regularly, consider investing in jack stands, a socket set and an oil drain pan.
2. Run the car's engine for 10 minutes before you drain the oil. Warm oil drains faster than cold oil.
3. Park the car on a level surface, engage the parking brake and turn off the engine. If your car has a low clearance, raise it by driving it onto a ramp or by jacking it up and supporting it securely.
4. Open the hood and place the new oil and funnel on top of the engine to ensure that you won't forget to add oil afterwards (an expensive mistake that many do-it-yourselfers make!).
Tips:
Consult your owner's manual or an automotive parts specialist to find out the weight of oil and type of oil filter your car needs.
You'll need the year, make, model and mileage of your car if you go to an auto parts store.
Warnings:
Make sure the car is securely supported before you crawl underneath.
You will need two jack stands to support the front of your car after jacking it up. Never get under a car that is supported only by a jack! A pair of jack stands costs less than $20.
Draining the Oil and Changing the Oil Filter
Steps:
1. Crawl under the car once it is securely supported.
2. Locate the oil drain plug on the underside of the engine, usually near the front center of the car. Consult your owner's manual for the exact location.
3. Place the oil drain pan under the plug and loosen the plug with a socket wrench. Remember: turn counterclockwise to remove bolts.
4. Remove the plug by hand. Be prepared for the rush of hot oil!
5. Let the oil drain into the pan. Hold onto the plug.
6. Reposition the pan, if necessary, to catch all the dripping oil.
7. Wipe off the drain plug and the plug opening when the oil finishes draining.
8. Replace the drain plug gasket.
9. Reinstall the plug. Always start threading any bolts or screws by hand to prevent cross threading.
10. Tighten with a wrench or socket. Be careful not to overtighten the plug.
11. Locate the existing oil filter. Oil filters are usually on the side of the engine.
12. Position the oil pan underneath the filter to catch any remaining oil.
13. Use an adjustable oil filter wrench to unscrew the old oil filter.
14. Use a rag to wipe the area where the filter mounts to the engine. Make sure the rubber seal of the old filter is not stuck to the engine.
15. Use some new oil to lightly coat the rubber seal of the new filter.
16. Screw the new filter into place by hand. It's usually not necessary to tighten the oil filter with the oil filter wrench, but have it at the ready if you're grip's not strong (or large) enough.
Tips:
Wear gloves to remove the plug if it's hot.
It's always best to replace the oil drain plug gasket.
Use the right size wrench or socket. Don't use an adjustable wrench: you can strip the bolt.
Warnings:
Handle hot automotive oil with extreme care.
Be careful when removing the old oil filter. It's full of oil.
Installing New Oil and Cleaning Up
Steps:
1. Locate the oil filler cap on top of the engine. Remove it.
2. Place the funnel in the opening and pour in the new oil. Typically, you will use 4 to 5 quarts of oil. Check your manual for the correct oil capacity.
3. Replace the cap when you're finished.
4. Run the engine for a minute, then check the dipstick. Add more oil if necessary.
5. Check the area around the oil drain plug and the filter for oil leaks. Tighten the plug or oil filter if you find leakage.
6. Use rags and newspapers to wipe away excess oil.
7. Pour the used oil into a plastic container after the used oil cools.
8. Dispose the used oil properly: either bring it to a recycling center or an auto repair shop that can recycle it for you. Don't pour it down the sewer!
Tips:
Record the date and mileage after you change the oil so you will know when your car is due for another oil change. It helps to put a small sticker on your windshield to remind you.
It's a good idea to tear up an old cardboard box that you don't need anymore and to put the cardboard under the car before you start changing your oil. This way, if there are any spills, the oil won't mess up your driveway. Also, while it's pouring, keep an eye on where it's going (it changes constantly for the first few minutes). If not, the oil pan might not catch much of the oil and the next thing you know, you've got oil pouring into the storm drain and straight to the ocean.
Warnings:
Handle hot motor oil with extreme caution.
Only dispose of used motor oil and filters at authorized locations.
AnswerWow! Very succinct answer. However, the owner's manual for my 2000 Lanos SE states that the oil only needs to be changed every 6,000 miles or 6 months.What two parts did Pangaea break into?
Laurasia was the northern landmass that broke away from Pangaea. The modern day continents located in Laurasia were Europe (without Balkans), Asia (without India), and North America.
Gondwana was the southern landmass that broke away from Pangaea. The modern day continents and countries located in Gondwana were Africa, South America, Australia, India, Arabia, Antarctica, and the European Balkans.
How do you replace bent valves?
This is not an easy or cheap job... It requires removal of the cylinder head, this basically means taking off the top half of the engine!
you will need to drain oil and coolant, undo all sensors to cylinder head, disconnect exhaust from head, remove timing belt etc.
once you get the head off you need a valve spring compressor to squash each spring and remove the collect's that hold each valve in place.
You need to lap in each new valve before carefully rebuilding the head with new valve seals.
Then you need to put the whole engine back together again with new gaskets and sealants and new head bolts.
I would also advise a new coolant thermostat, timing belt and timing belt tensioner. Possibly also a new water pump. As if these go faulty it could mean you bend your new valves.
new oil & oil filter, and new coolant.
Not a job for a novice or for the faint hearted!
Water usually drips from your accumulator, that's how you know its working. Sounds like you have a hole somewhere and the water is coming into the car. Check your firewall for leaks behind the accumulator. -broncomudder89
my $.02There may be debris plugging the drain, causing the water drainage to back up and into the passenger compartment.
