Omega General Help / losing lots of water

« on: 03 September 2006, 14:37:35 »

Hi Guys
one thing after another!
got the beast up and running fine - tho idling problems. drove 60 miles and it started cutting out when stopped - idle Control Valve? the coolant level warninmg came on.
topped up a pint or so.
drove back and coolant level came on again. got home and water pouring out of passenger side of engine bay and fan buzzing on. too late and dark so looked this morning.
filled up about 6 pints or so and when started had a buzzing from drivers side of engine compartment.
ran on 2000 revs for 5 mins and couldnt see any water leak, but level went down so topped another pint. still no leaking
cant see any water in the oil
any thoughts?
cheers

Omega General Help / Re: HT leads for 2.5 V6

Well, I got away with a full set at £28.

The £59 set was longer on the 2,4,6 bank and the MV6 leads were a lot shorter. strange world.I suppose voxmaul make their money when they supply GENUINE parts for work done. good grief!!

Just to remind you peeps that I have a poorly 1998 3.0MV6 which I am breaking. many parts still available.

cheers

Omega General Help / HT leads for 2.5 V6

« on: 01 September 2006, 11:09:18 »

I am at the end of my wits!!!

I have a 1997 2.5 CD V6 and its running rough. I am changing plugs and leads. Plugs ok but leads............
£90 + VAT for each bank from Vauxhall. Local factors have 2 choices £28 and £58 per set, but cant identify which I need as their chassis numbers are 8 digit and dont correspond to my log book.
I have leads from a 3.0MV6. would they be good to fit or is there a problem?
saw info about Vectra leads and stuff but can anyone help?
cheers
