Anyone willing to lend me...
« on: 03 December 2011, 12:48:59 »
... a locking wedge for a 1.6 16 valve Vauxhall engine? I think it's the same one for all the Vx 16 Valve engines (but I'll wait for someone to correct me!) so any of the 4 pot owners.

Obviously I'll pay the postage both ways ;)

Just a tentative enquiry at the moment because I'll probably end up buying one anyway (sure they're less than £10) but my mate has just bought the Astra I was making enquiries about earlier and it needs a full service and cam belt before it's put to much use ::)

TIA

I have one, but the postage would come to about the price of a new one, as dbug says, they're only around £5.  ;) ;) ;)

The Omega 2.0l one is 4.99 from most factors, thus not worthwhile, as it will cost the same in postage, and you get to keep :).

I should add, having only owned proper Omegas, I only own V6 and TD lock kits for Omegas (and obviously a K series one ;D)

After a little research it looks like the Omega one isn't right anyway ::)

Still, for £15 I'll just buy one ;) Thanks all :y :y

Mine is a Sealey VS1700 and & was bought to do her 1.6 16v 52 plate Astra G. It says it's suitable for all 'Eco-Tec' 16 valve engines 1.4 1.6 1.8 2.0 & 2.2

Doesn't make any other distinction  :-\ :-\

Before, after or during the wedgie, that's the question. ;D
