Title: Lack of power
Post by: Cuss on 21 February 2010, 07:10:41

My omega seems to be lacking power around 2000rpm to 4000rpm.  It is very noticable because the acceleration is very sluggish then starts to pick up when revs get to around 4000rpm.
Not sure if it will be something mechanical or wherther a good service should sort the problem?.  Also thought about getting some of those additives you can get to add to the fuel which apparently cleans the injectors etc, anyone recommend a good brand?

redx is good, also can put in super unleaded say £10- and £5 normal95 unleaded, thak cleans them out to. and the exhaust. dont do all time. but would check plugs and plug leads first, and fuel filter.

Check that spark plugs are not flooded with oil - fairly common problem, if they are you will need to replace rocker cover gasket(s).
