Omega General Help / Thermostat
« on: 23 July 2013, 16:42:20 »
I am trying to diagnose whether my thermostat is working Starting from cold The 2 small rubber pipes on drivers side of engine bay going through a pump? get hot very quickly , heater off, whilst the top hose to rad is cold.After a short time heat does appear at the top hose but the temperature gauge is still not moving. keep running and the gauge begins to register and on normal driving settles at 85-90.but can take quite a while to get to this temp. Why are the 2 small rubber hoses getting hot first do they go to the heater? why would they get hot with heater off does that pump? run all the time.I hope this makes sense I dont want to replace the thermostat if it OK.

I have just fitted a new solenoid to a front door which is operating ok but the outside door handle rod has come away from its location. Can anyone try to explain to me where it goes and what I have to dismantle to do it. The inside handle is working ok. Pictures or drawings would be a big help.

Omega General Help / Brake pad replacement
« on: 13 January 2013, 15:57:53 »
There appears to be a lot of disagreement on whether to open the bleed nipple when pushing brake cylinders back or whether to push them back slowly with nipples closed. After having applied the brakes and then released the pedal surely fluid is flowing back towards the resevoir isnt this the same as pushing the cylinders back although there is obviously a greater volume of fluid being transferred. What are your thoughts as far as seal reversal during pad change.

Omega General Help / winter pack pump
« on: 01 December 2012, 16:34:13 »
Does this run all the time or only when the controls have a certain setting both inlet and outlet on mine heat up very quickly before I get any heat on the top hose . I just wonder if the pump can be stopped to help heating the engine quicker.

Omega General Help / New front brake pads
« on: 19 November 2012, 21:20:34 »
Put new front  pads in today When pumping pedal to spread the pads I found things that might have been there before but never noticed. with no engine running pedal hard and short movement. engine running more movement but felt a bit spongey. Is the extra movement due to servo, abs,or similar.  Engine not running ignition on gear in park a clicking sound from the gear change area ,Auto, when brake applied. Some kind of switch operating? Any comments however rude welcome.  How long to settle in new pads?

Omega General Help / Heater Hoses
« on: 12 November 2012, 15:55:42 »
My heater hoses go to a pump? mounted on the left side  of the engine bay looking from the front these hoses get hot even though I have no heating switched on is this right does this pump?  allow a flow all the time or should it only allow flow when heat is required in cabin.
