General Car Chat / LPG Kit Suppliers

« on: 08 August 2015, 18:26:45 »

Who is the best supplier of the Stag 300 kits now? As I understand it, Telio has gone out of favour with OOF a little?

Want to make sure I'm not paying too much for the kit as I've found a couple of suppliers but really don't know how much these kits should be retailing for.

Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / WANTED: 3 button fob

Just the circuit board will do. No fussed about switches needing replacing or battery carrier needing re-soldering, as long as the board actually works and no one has previously repaired it.

Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / WANTED: Facelift MV6 bumper

« on: 12 June 2015, 22:44:46 »

Good condition please with towing eye cover.

Mesh, Foglights, temp sensor, loom and Washer jets not important as I already have them.

Have seen the one on Ebay but just seeing if there is another one out there, Z20R paint would be nice but not essential.

Many thanks

For supplying an excellent set of late Elite textured leather seats to replace the worn out set in my 2.6 (drivers seat sags and the beaded edge is coming away, heaters had started to melt though the back of the leather on both from seats). He even fitted them for me as well!!!

Also picked up a length of loom from injector loom plug back to the ECU so I can make up a pluggable LPG loom as well as the B pillar trim that was falling off mine!

Cheers Al

Much appreciated.

General Discussion Area / New Hoover - Dog compatible!

« on: 22 March 2015, 12:50:01 »

Anyone have any recommendations for a decent hoover that can cope with mountains of dog hair?

Our Sprollie (Springer Collie X) is losing its winter coat and our two old Hoovers tend to block up halfway through hoovering a room.

Omega General Help / Squeak from rear suspension

« on: 05 March 2015, 19:56:25 »

I think it's actually the rear dust shields / handbrake return springs - when handbrake applied the rear squeaks when the suspension moves. ie when I get out of the car.

Is there a fix for this? I tried gently bending the dust shields and popping some grease on the springs but noise persists.

Maintenance Guides / Scuttle Sealing - Photo

« on: 12 February 2015, 17:45:39 »

Here's where you seal the scuttle (scuttle removed) to stop it dripping water onto the N/S of the engine / dispack etc. I've just used some Loctite grey sealant as it was handy. You'll need to scrape the remains of the foam off this area and the corresponding part of the scuttle.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Facelift / Prefacelift ashtrays

« on: 21 January 2015, 21:16:30 »

Question, the Facelift centre console ashtray has a four pin plug with three contacts wired, basically two live feeds and a 0v return. The switching for the illumination is obtained by a switch mounted in the rear of the ashtray assembly.

Looking at a pre-facelift ashtray there are four contacts wired on the same style plug. Does anyone know why? I presume the illumination switch isn't built into the ashtray on these models?

I ask for a valid reason!!!
