Another 2.6 with an issue
20. Jan 2011 at 18:35  
Got my eye on another Omega 2.6, but this one says that the fuel pump in the tank is blocked? Starts and drives fine but terribly slow? Any ideas. 2.6 Auto 2001.

This relates to a diesel but you'll get the picture.

Could a good thrashing and a lot of good fuel sort that?

Better to give the filter on the pump a clean. It's not a big job.

i'd be very surprised if it was a fuel blockage issue. Taken the fuel pump out of a 150k mile tractor, perfectly clean!

If price is right take a punt, but i'd be looking at a miss-fire issue or its in limp mode.

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine
