    This are real hidden challenges which even Owner and matatu operators fear to talk due shame or stigmatisation..watadharauliwa .

    That's why it is advisable to buy a clean second hand from Japan or a new matatatu that you can operate at least for 1 year without this major or minor mechanical issues

    Siku ingine ukienda kwa muchoki, avoid muchiri because he has seen better days in the past. He sucks at speed governor wiring. Chances are, bado gari inazima. Probably a faulty nozzle ama common rail.

      Iko Sawa Sasa, the problem was the governor, someone else checked it later
