Omega General Help / Re: omega 2.5 td cutting out when lift off accelerator
« on: 16 March 2010, 03:48:09 »
I`ve got the same issue with my `96 omega 2.5td. It first started doing it as i was shifting from 1st to 2nd gear but now it can happen anytime. There`s a big smoke behind me as i drive up the hill. I told this story to my mechanic over the phone who suspected the air mass flow meter. As i was looking for it on ebay i found this;
Common symptoms of a faulty Air flow meter (AFM) are:
Poor idling
Cutting out when the engine speed drops (approching bends, roundabouts etc)
Loss of Power
Excessive Black Smoke
A diagnostic machine will sometimes point out the AFM is faulty, however, not always.
So this must be it. 70 quid.
