Title: MY OMEGA 2.OL AUTO IS LOOSING WATER
Post by: HAWORTH1966 on 27 December 2008, 11:41:42

My Omega is loosing water, there is no water in the oil and no oil in the water, the heaters are working fine producing heat.  however upon closer inspection as youre looking into the engine,at the very back of the engine water appears to be coming out of the top.  this may be the cyclinder head, however there is some large unit that is attached to the head.  it appears to be where the HT leads go into. it this the diss unit as im unsure what this part is? and if it has a gasget?  has anybody previously had any water related problems in this area.  this is my first time on this forum.
cheers

If it has A/C will more than likely be the HBV as stated.
