Title: my omega 2.5 td stops when he wants
Post by: pimpo on 30 June 2010, 21:36:59
When i turn on my car it seems to work perfect, but after some time the engine goes down and if i donīt touch the trottle stops in one or two minutes, and at the moment if i touch the trottle. When the engine is hot ot park in the sun it get worse and only works for 50 meters.
It only works again if i swicht off the key an wait one minute or more.

Any ideas?

Just a shot in the dark here, check your battery / running voltage, you may have a stuck relay for your heater plugs (intermittently on), had this one before when turning corners.

i have made the paperclip test, and numbers 54 and 92 errors are show.
what piece is the fuelcutoff solenoid?
and my car doesnīt have cruise control, so why 92 error appear?

The fuel stop solenoid is at the back of the pump it has a single wire attached and is held on by a 8 or 10mm nut.
If you take the wire off first you should see a dome shapped bit this unscrews I think its a 24mm socket you need.
this is the solenoid ive got a spare if you need it :y
I'll try and post some photos later tonight :y
ignore 92 if you don't have cruise.
if you want cruise just replace the stalk and away you go.
Before you go taking things appart just check the small wire going to the solenoid it might be broken

I have test again the car with an "My Naff Code Reader" tester and i have erased the errors. the case is that the car is still not working and the errors donīt appear again.
tomorrow we will replace the fuel cut off solenoid, my mecanic had one.
Someone ask the year of my car, is from 1995.
 Why the fault codes donīt get saved again after erase them if the car is still not working?
