Omega General Help / Re: Turning Up 2.5V6 Idle.

« on: 06 August 2008, 22:26:47 »

Well firstly a/c drinks petrol ans at the price these days i cant afford it!! Secondly a/c would be an extra pulley therefore draining more power!! Shes alot more responsive since i took it out!!

I checked the exhaust its the baffles....cheers lads

Sorry - but it needs saying that the exhaust is rattling because its either loose or falling apart (maybe baffles) - it shouldn't normally rattle.  So best to fix that
check all the rubber bits are in place and that its not rattling against the body (rear heatshield can come adrift and rattle against the top of the back box.)

Kool fella il try changing the exhaust

Omega General Help / Re: Will a 2 litre power steering pump fit a 2.5??

« on: 26 June 2008, 17:28:53 »

IIRC it will physically but you'll lose your servotronic assistance.

Wats that??

An electrickery input to the steering pump - Ask MarksDTM for an explanation - that gives you more assistance at low speed & little if any at speed.

Sounds kool!!! But the steering in my 2.5 was not any different than the steering in my 2 litre!!! Wud u feel the difference??
