would a known working V6 injection manifold help? Thinking one off the 3.0 could rule out anything done to yours?

There is a spare manifold here. I have a good feeling about that theory. It stacks up quite nicely with all the symptoms.

I'm holding my breath and crossing everything, ready for next update.

Sure a few others following this saga are sat on the edge of their seats as well

Your not rather kiddin! Been kackin it all week. Finally get the call to repay some of the help you've given me over the years, and this happens. I cant believe it.

Cant imagine your two faces on start up. Unless Mr Wood is on a wind up? i reckon he's wired a set of comedy teeth to the alternater...if only.

By the way i never opened the packaging on that manifold when Ld sent it to me for my install, never even touched it. Was glad to have it as a back up though.

That's it... You pass the buck on to me

I'm surprised there wasn't another update to this late last night/this morning

Had already arranged for 2woody to come over and chat about Megasquirt fuel injection systems. He has kindly brought some ignition leads and a couple of coil packs just in case.

While talking to him I had an epiphany and realised that all this messing around with Omegas is a waste of time and that the answer has a Holden badge on the bonnet. Or perhaps "Turbo R" on the boot. Not sure. :-/

I will be swapping the manifolds over tonight, if all goes well.

Any more info sounds like the one i`ve just bought for parts

Glad you managed to chat something other than the Omega

Are you thinking of a problem with LPG injector location or something? Still think you're on to something with the FPR Noise :-/ :-/

No. Can't see the LPG nozzles affecting things, unless one has broken off! Just have an unmodified manifold complete with injectors, FPR, etc. so might as well slap it on an eliminate the final part of the LPG work, as well as the FPR.

Ahh... That makes sense Probably just as easy as swapping the FPR on its own

If its the ones I brought over, I can make no guarantees there aren't full of crud.  They have been stacked on shelf in garage since I swipped them from Pink about a year ago

OK. I'll have a look before I fit them.

Manifold and injectors swapped No change.

Plugs and leads next, I suppose. :-/

Kevin

[tunnie]

completely ruled out anything cambelt related? If the sound is not there during cranking  :-/ If its something in the bores should it not be there on crank?

First description sounded very much like tensioner failing on mine, worth taking the over off just to be sure?  :-/

has the ecu/loom been touched? petrol i mean.

[TheBoy]

Hmmm, could we be looking at engine damage due to borewash - I'd be surprised given that its only run briefly, and at idle.


Is this the end  ?

Not till the fat lady sings... get the head off if yo run out of options, for a look..

Nope.  Time is against us, that is not an option.
