General Car Chat / Re: Anyone need a cambelt, etc?
« on: 13 June 2024, 23:21:58 »Hi Folks,
As people are aware, I have on occasions over the last decade (or two!) offered mobile servicing to members for their Omegas.
If anyone has been considering having any jobs done, I am available, usually weekends and Mondays. Financially I am not really looking to gain much, other than to cover my expenses and a contribution to the holiday fund, it's more about me getting back out there in the summer months and re-igniting the passion I have for these cars / helping fellow enthusiasts.
I can also host in Oxfordshire.... the last member who came here for a cambelt stayed for a pub visit, BBQ, Beer, fire-pit, and Breakfast the next day
I suspect this was my good self!! In June last year James very kindly fitted a complete VX cambelt kit, cam cover seals and fitted a new water pump on my 3.2 saloon. I fortunately had all the parts in for the cambelt kit and cam covers, but he went out for his way to source a quality water pump at short notice the following morning before reassembly. Not only that, it was apparant that on a previous cambelt kit change the lower idler had been fitted the wrong way round, and had worn a near circular hole in the cambelt cover ! James duly found a good used one to complete the job. Needless to say, his mechanical skills are impressive, and the hospitality efforts of both James and his partner were superb!
Combined with the lovely weather, the good food and the quality of his work, I cannot thank James enough for his help and would have no hesitation in recommending that other OOFers take up his offer with the more intricate Omega repairs if they felt they weren't up to it themselves!
It's great to have people willing to help out if needed - many thanks James![]()
Are you coming back for a BBQ / few beers this summer?
