Omega General Help / 3.2 V6 Crankshaft bolt removal
« on: 20 April 2010, 09:01:09 »
Hi
I need to replace the front crankshaft oil seal on the 3.2 . The problem is we dont have a pneumatic wrench and we have tried to leave the car in gear with someone applying the brakes but we could not get it to budge . Some guys talk about using a strongbar thats jammed up against the chassis and with the coilpack disconnected swing the motor for 1/2 a second to loosen it , but how safe is that . Heres a picture of my problem .

Put back the 3bar fpr and put the reference port where it should be , car feels a bit more responsive . Will just get the piggyback remapped now .
Thanks Kevin

Ah ok .
Just to give you a idea of how he told me to connect it , it was on this pipe under the TB .
If I understand correctly it should be on this one marked in red .
That means that the UnichipQ should be remmaped to get it running 100% . Had the problem of the car overfueling when they did the chip so with the 3bar fpr that should be sorted 8-)

Yea thats why im going to put it back on the pipe before the butterly in the TB . Theres no vac there the guy I got the 2.5 from connected the fpr to vac line under the TB , last week I found out it was wrong so I corrected it . But I had to put it back since I tought it was overfueling to bad without vacuum on the fpr . I tought all cars used vacuum on the fpr , does the v6 have a special type of fpr then ? . This weekend I will put back the 3bar fpr and connect the pipe to where it should go .
I just love learning new things

Will do , got a new one today the old one came from my old 2l motor so it had done about 300000km . Will keep you posted . Think thats why my car was hunting when hot aswell, we had to modify the iac valve to get it to idle correctly . Just getting everything sorted , will put the fpr pipe back to where it should be , since I put it back on the vac line when it started to overfuel badly when cold .
Thanks

Think im going to put back the old 3bar one to test . Anyone know the Brake Specific Fuel Consumption value for the z32se ?

Forgot to mention im using a 4.0Bar regulator and the c25xe/x25xe 216cc injectors . After a while its fine , just when you stop and start again . I know the z32se injectors are 200cc but they dont fit the x25xe rail since they are too short . Maybe the 4bar + 216cc injectors are causing it to overfuel to mutch , since the x25xe ones are 216cc @ 3 bar . But I was under the impression that the ecu would shorten the injector pulses to prevent that . Thanks

Hi
This is starting to do my head in
. When the car has warmed up to normal operating temprature and you stop and switch off , either for getting something at the shops or for refueling as soon as you get back in and start the car it hesitates like its not getting fuel . And you can smell its overfueling form inside the car , this carries on for about a minute or so then its gone or until you floor it and it gets above 4000 rpm then its fine :-/ . Fuel pressure is steady at 3.9 bar , have a new fuel filter and pump installed , with the vac pipe on the reg removed it reads 4.3bar . Thinking its the ECT sensor acting up . Its a z32se running a x25xe intake with a motronic 2.8.1 ecu no faults logged .
Any ideas guys ?
Thank YOu

Hi
Are you using the motronic 2.8.1 ? Here you can find the wiring digram ,pinout data and solenoid testing info .

Omega General Help / Motronic 2.8.1 Traction Control question
« on: 14 March 2010, 18:13:40 »
Hi
Just want to know , my car came without ABS and TC . Now since most of you guys know I have a z32se motor with the vectra x25xe intake and the Motronic 2.8.1 ecu from a omega in my Kadett . Can the fact that I dont have the TC or ABS in any way cause any performance problems ? Been told by a guy that the ecu will hold the engine back a bit , but I asked him how it can that be if the Motronic ECU needs data from the ABS / TC ecu to make it work ( thats how I think it works ). Please tell me that my theory is correct .
Thank You

Hey guys
It was the top switch , its the low speed fan switch on the astra f/Kadett the bottom one is working fine since its the fan highspeed switch + ac cut-off switch.
Bridged it out since im still waiting for the new one , car is running better now .
Thank You
