Omega General Help / Wet weathers issues. I could do with some help
« on: 24 September 2012, 15:46:44 »
This morning in torrential rain I drove to a meeting, about an hour and a half.
coming out of the meeting an hour later I jumped inn the car as normal.
The car started as normal and within minutes of leaving the car park and accelerating from the roundabout I has a loss of power (not cut out) and the energy management light came on for a few seconds.
Once up to speed the light went out and driving was normal
Within 30 minutes the light came on again and when reaching the next junction, whilst at a standstill I noticed misfiring.
I have been told it is water getting into the system. That was quite obvious
Can anyone highlight either where the answer maybe on the forum from a similar question or guidance as to how to stop this
Many thanks
Jammy

Omega General Help / Re: Maximum fuel capacity
« on: 11 January 2012, 16:36:21 »ive filled mine up 3 times in the past 4 weeksFilled mine 3 times in 2 days last weekend.............Not much point in considering LPG either as the boot and back seats were full of stuff (tools, christmas presents, firewood [don't ask]) so I don't have space for another tank.
now you have me thinking
Helicopters have external drop tanks
dual fuel with a gas tank on the roof.
Ahh but will it act like a helium baloon? hmmm

Thanks for your comments guys.
Therefore if anyone can help with a new wing mirror assembly and petrol flap it would be appreciated.
(I have requested on here as I seem unable to register a want on the sale and wanted section)
Appreciated a lot more than the guy who hit my car and left the scene and for me to pay for the damage he caused!!
(I know I wake up the following day and feel really pi**ed)

General Car Chat / HIT & LEGGED IT!
« on: 08 January 2012, 16:37:44 »
Earlier today someone has collided with my car damaging the off side rear quarter panel, totally removing the petrol flap and busting the wing mirror keeping the glass intact, I mention the latter as there has to be a silver lining in most things.
Does anyone know of a body shop or person in North Staffordshire/Stoke on Trent area who does not charge the earth for repairing and repainting the same? Any help would be appreciated as running this through the insurance company would cost a small fortune in premiums next year.
Thanks guys

I struggle getting in and out of my Omega!!!
And at a height of less then 6'
The only way to get in to my wife's Copen is with the roof down
Getting out is by being dragged out backwards by the shoulders.
Geez I must be really old or **ackered (knees and hips)
