Hi all,

Just found this site. I inherited a 1995 2.0 16v Omega from my father last year.
I had this converted to LPG in May 2007 as I drive approx 1000 miles per week to work.
Just had new wishbones fitted and am now experiencing the clogged up ICV problem for the second time. I will be attempting to clean this myself as Vauxhall charged me £112.50 the first time.
I have purchased a used tow bar and am now looking for some instructions to fit it...so anyone out their with the knowledge or a diagram please help.

If your car is an estate be prepared to remove the rears ection of the exhaust.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Take it the tow bar is for a trailer, don't mention Caravans, strange things can happen to those that do. Thumbs Up!

Don't worry though, lots of help and laughs available here. Cheesy
