Have you repeated the paperclip test again after replacing the sensors?

Omega General Help / Re: Fuel filter
« on: 06 October 2011, 21:23:30 »
Ok, looks like the fuel hose connectors are buggered. Does anyone know if you can get new hoses? or are they dealer only?
or can you build them? i.e. 10mm hose plus connectors?

Thanks, Hope this worked!!
There is an o-ring but its sitting in the hose connector at the moment ive slaved the new filter in for the time being.
im just not sure if this o-ring and collar are part of the hose connecter.

Hi,
just followed the guide on replacing fuel filter on my petrol estate. However on removal of the hoses on both sides of the filter as well as the clips an orange/yellow o-ring is present as well as a collar (about 5-6mm wide)from both inlet and outlet hoses. Are these part of the hoses and do both hoses need replacing or do they just sit back into the hos on fitment of the new filter?
Any ideas?

Does anyone know if you can re-wire the trip computer wiring to accept a more up to date (and more accessible) one. I have a '96 3L manual elite with pixels escaping all over the place!

Omega General Help / Re: Warm air
« on: 02 August 2010, 22:00:17 »
Ahh, Yeah ok understand now. Well i imagine its working fine cause as i increase the temp setting in the car the air temp increases significantly. Does this valve only control the water flowing through the matrix? cause as i disconnect the vac line from the top i hear a fan sound come on over by the cabin panel filter and ceasing when i put the line back on.

Does anybody have a clue why the air coming out of the vents is tepid? climate control seems to work fine but when adjusting it to LO on the dash without A\C on it just reduces it to a warm temp.

Omega General Help / Re: misfire at higher rpm's
« on: 15 May 2009, 14:55:39 »
ok, done the test got code 19, which i believe is "no rpm signal"
is this sensor at the back next to the water hose for the heater cut off valve?
I had to disconnect a plug near there to gain access and i'm hopin that it's not connected again properly.

no not done the test yet will get that out the way and get back to you.
i dont think the coolant is over pressure, the pipe was so perished from inside out! i think it was just a matter of time for that pipe. Just makes me wonder about the rest of the rubber pipework
No mayonaise in eitther system and did complete head gasket change bout six months ago.

Omega General Help / misfire at higher rpm's
« on: 15 May 2009, 13:39:50 »
just had a blow out on the coolant pipe to the heater cut off valve. Replaced that no problem but now i get i heavy misfire and backfire/partial cut out on a cold engine about 3500 rpm. Strange thing is that if i let the car idle for obout 15 to 20 mins the rpm where the misfire starts slowly climbs untill it reaches about 5500-6000 rpm. It idles very smooth and i thought that there was just obviously water ingress to one or several of the plugs, its just this misfire thats creapin up the rpm range that is confusin me. any suggestions out there?
Oh and if i leave the car for about an hour to cool down the whole thing just repeats.
dis pack and plugs replaced about a year ago
ecu fault light flickers on if i maintain rpm at the misfire point, but clears when i back off.

Omega General Help / Re: cooling fan
« on: 13 December 2008, 16:38:50 »
Well, i found the relays controling the fans in the engine compartment. changed them both.
Also found out from vaux main dealer about a ceramic resistor in the fan line which reduces speed of fan.
Changed that as well but still no joy!!!!
switched the heatin on max and the fan does cut out every once in a while. so am back to square one! :-?
