Hi Guys,
Sorry for posting this here but for some reason I cant post in the wanted section?
I am looking for a crank sensor for a 1997 2.5 V6 omega estate, and wandered if anyone had one they wanted to sell, looking for a new one really.
I have some photos of the old connection and it looks to be oblong with rounded corners so not really an oval shape?
Cheers
Tony

Check Forum guidelines... You haven't got enough posts yet to start a new thread!
Also look through the parts section... I've got one fr sale but you need to check which one you want :y :y

I wouldn't buy a secondhand one and I can't see anybody having a new one sat around, they would have returned it to Vauxhall for a refund if it wasn't needed so the quickest option would be a visit to your main dealer being honest ;)

Buy new. Really not worth the time and effort messy with old ones.
Its not the sensor that appears to fail, but the cable, due to internal brittleness

Errm... I have!!! It was supplied in error but like a muppet I opened the bag before I checked ::) ::) ::) :-[ :-[
Have advertised it a while back and then chucked it in a box in the study and forgot about it ::) ::) ::)
It's still available and is a square plug, metal body type. Igot a good deal on it when I bough it so was reluctant to take it back as someone here may well benefit from saving £15-20 on it :y :y :y

Like every sensible V6 owner, I always keep a spare ;D. It goes in the boot on long journeys as well.
Trust me, its a bloody long way home when it fails :-[

Keep meaning to get a spare for the boot ::) ::) ::)
I'll add it to the shopping list next time I go visit andyc :y :y :y
At a push I could probably "adjust" the square plug to fit :o :o :o

I've got a spare as well but its going back, don't think it will fit an MX5 or Rover 25 diesel ::)

As an aside, I was reading the Rover workshop manual, and you have to remove FIP to do the glowplugs :o

Its quite common to replace 3 glowplugs and leave the 4th well alone ;D

My tractor survived well on 1 out of 6 working glowplugs, until the cold weather just after christmas....
