Hello everyone!
01. Sep 2007 at 19:43
 
Yes I know the names abit odd but no one else has it! I,m pretty new to Omega ownership and pleased with what I've found. Big car, not too thirsty for a 2.0L Auto either. Just about to embark on a LPG Conversion, must try not to cause an explosion though. At present it's got the usual problems which seem to be assotiated with the engine management, seems to start hunting for no apparent reason, but waits for the lights to change to green before stalling. (How does it know?) I've tried a new Lambda and MAF so I guess next is the Idle valve. We'll see. Anyway I live in North Wales and also ride a bike CBX 750f which needs lots of attention regularly it's getting grouchy in it's old age but still able to break the speed limit in lower gears, not that I would.

I look forward to reading more about the Omegas on this site and hopefully contribute some good Ideas of fixes in the future.

Oh and at the third stroke it will be Beer O'clock. Smiley

Welcome mate Thumbs Up!

Check for air leaks, broken vacuum pipes around the throttle body.   These are common symptons on 2L.
Post up in the help area how you get on..
