Never torqued them and my experience as a breaker is that they aren't done up that tight from factory

Omega General Help / Re: Non-Starting Elite Estate
« on: 27 February 2018, 16:17:30 »
We never got to the bottom of Tony H's 2.5 non starter, only thing I've seen since was someone on her who found a bit of corrosion on the ECU plugs, bit of a scrub with contact cleaner restored normal service
Are these now getting to an age where things that weren't a problem are showing themselves I wonder, aged electrics and all that ?

Sounds daft but why don't you get the petrol flap sent over/buy it and see, some panels in rarer colour's are getting sparse and it could be the similar to Z147/157 which are near as damnit the same

Pink job!
No no no it's perfect for the man, chuck a load of random stuff in and a jar of sauce switch it on and bingo a tasty dish when you get in, a leg of lamb done in it is unfluffing believable

I've just dropped the tank on a DTI and sure looks like there is a pump

Dave the ones on my current breaker are giving codes for being unserviceable, if that's the case you are welcome to cannibalise them for bracketry or casings, Ps the stereo works fine !
