Omega General Help / I am now getting there

« on: 15 January 2007, 11:54:08 »

Happy monday morning everyone.

I replaced the heater matrix in my car on sunday and what a git to do, near enough complete removal of the dash and a whole days work and the problem is starting to get sorted.

I now have warm air but only on the passeneger side and no the drivers, but i think that might be a cable problem.

But now it blows hot then warm, then hot and so on.

Someone told me a way to resolve this but i cannot remember or find it on the forum anywhere, so can someone please help me.

Plus i now have a airbag light up as i removed both front airbags, is there someone in the essex area who can reset this for me

Cheers Nick

Omega General Help / Problem Omega

« on: 22 October 2006, 11:30:00 »

Please help me,

The heater valve went on the elite. so i removed the pelumn chamber to gain some access space and put in a new valve.

When i replaced everything, started the car and the engine management light came on and did not go off.

So now the car is very sluggish and is not running right. I have checked all connections and pipes and everything is in the right place.

So what is wrong please tell me asap as i cannot find the fault.

Cheers Nick

General Discussion Area / What sort of price

« on: 15 January 2007, 14:09:58 »

Hi everyone,

I have just finished rebuilding and sold a porsche 928S (i know i am not on omega topic but just stay with me) and am looking for a new project.

I am thinking of a porsche 944 with an engine transplant. I have been looking for a nive V8 but all i can get is rubbing 35/3.9 rover lumps or get an american v8 but are alot of money over here.

So as i am a driver of a 3.0 V6 i had a thought.

What about a v6 from an omega in my new project.

I would be looking for an engine complete with ecu etc and a gearbox (does not matter if the gearbox is broken as i am going to cut in in half)

What sort of price would i be looking to pay for the above and what sort of problems would i run into with the engine.

Cheers Nick

General Discussion Area / O/S Wishbone

« on: 15 September 2006, 08:44:34 »

Morning everyone,

Very tired this morning due to changing the drivers side front wishbone last night and it was a b*stard. Still out there at 10 heating up the joint that connects to the hub for it too release and it still would not.

I did the passenger side on tuesday night and it was easy, 1 hour all done but the other side what a pain.

Sorry for boring you all but i was really swearing last night with a big hammer and a blow torch.

Very Tired Nick
