Great Work !!! I just would like to know if the favorit use the same system for the Tachometer ?

Could you give details about switch you are using?

So Hello everyone, just need a quick update, I would like to know if anyone can help me on how to take the fuse box out in a '93 Favorit. As I can to check for rust and corrosion, I have been having issues with lighting AND the dashboard. I suspect the Fuse box and some faulty connection. PS : If you are looking for info on the fuse box check links bellow : https://www.skoda-techweb.cz/tisk.php?id=169

Hi, Could you explain on how you did it ? In my experience (Favorit '93) there is a "delay" between the thermostat and Fan. On my car the gauge show a little higher and goes up then the fan work. But between the gauge showing HIGH tmeparaature and fan working there is a delay of 3 to 5 minute. I suppose it is normal because the thermostat need to "build up heat" in order to open right ? Anyone experience about this ?

Good post ! Will also change mine ( favorit) and make a video of it hopefully.

Nice Post ! Just a quick question to FeliciaHacker : I see that you are using LPG. I am curious about your average consumption. For me (1993 Favorit LX 1,3 Carb) I am at 10L/100km on daily use (this mean 20 km morning and 20 km in the veneing on mostly higway (70% highway 30% traffic) with an average speed of 100 on highway. When on long distance I calculated an average of 7.5-8 L/100km. (these are my most recent stats 1 month ago)

Yes... Right side...

Yes I agree, but this is a nearly 45 degree angle, and this seems to much for me. I will adjust the valve setting this week (I think it need adjustement because I lost a little bit of power and I have been hearing valve noises- typical click noise at idle). After Adjusting It I will check If I can move the distributor in Original way (toward car and not left wheel), and keep you guys updated.

Nice topic. Just two thing 1- i also had a similar problem once, not during no matter what i did. Turns out that there was a problem with a switch (my car has been fitted with LPG aftermarket). 2- my distributor is also in the same direction right now facing the left wheel. i will try to change it and put it in the original way like RicardoM told (facing the car) when ı will readjust the valves.

I posted photo on how to do it but it does not show... amd ı dont have anymore space available... sorry for that.

Hi everyone. I had a horn problem : when using left turn signal the horn was engaging. More than annoying it started to smoke after some time. So ı decided to check the problem today. I also wanted to put a quick diy on how to disassemble the signal switch. The problem was basically that a smal piece of copper bent with time after makina it straight the problem was gone. On how to disassemble it : take down the screw under the stering wheel and take the bottom cover off. Then disconnect the bottom connector. Then take the flathead screw on the left or right depending on the switch. Finally take out gently the switch and disconnect the last top connector. If you need to disassemble more the switch take it out again. And you are good to go.

To be honest I didn't checked the all of the post on Classic Skoda Guide. But I see that I missed loads of things. Apologies if I made a new post for nothing. BUT, I am planning to change the Drum at home, since it look pretty easy. I also found out that the inner bearing also need to be changed. since it is the end of the month I will not able to get bearing set right now. Also I will change the brake pads since I'am at it. While oing this I will take photos and details the process. So in the future maybe this post will be seen by people in need (Not like me :S whom doesn't check in detail). Thanks again !

So after checking the new drums I got, I saw that they don't have bearing in t. So I will have to put a new bearing in place. Since I don't have a toold how do I get the cap off ? He uses some kind of special Plyer to pull it out, but how do you do it with common tools ? The advantage on this channel is that it is really well made. Quality speaking the video is very good. It might be true that some information might be missing or that he is not a"mecanic". I am sure that his experience and knowledge are limited. I Will review this post ASAP. Thanks again.

I already tried by removing the nots, but as I see on the video you need to take the cap off in order to remove the drum. Also I will check if The new Drum I got have bearing in it or not. The other videos I looked at (ChrisFix Channel, Link : The drum wasn't hold by anything other than the bolt. But it does not seem to be the case for the Favorit. Will check and get back to you guys on a DIY how to do it.

Great!!! Thank You Mr TURGUT !!! May Allah make gold of what you touch.
