New Member, Omega 2.0CD Hiya!!!
12. Feb 2008 at 20:17

Hello, My Name is Frankie, found this site while looking for answers for my fiancee`s poor running Omega 2.0.

Learned a fair bit, paper clip test etc, which to a person who never had a Vauxhall before is bloody usefull, and you all seem like a nice bunch on here. Did`nt know there was a following for these Omega`s!!! More people post on here than they do on my old cortina forums I use for my car!!!

Got lots of little jobs to be getting on with on the car, then time to tackle the bodywork. rear arches and the bonnet has laquer peeling off. car is very solid apart from that. going to change the crankshaft and camshaft sensors at the week end. bit more research from here me thinks.

Anyway hope to talk again soon and I may put up some pic`s of the car when I get a chance and I may have to pick some brains at some point as I am still used to a set of points and a dizzy!

Regards
Frankie
