Omega General Help / Re: Misfiring

« on: 24 January 2016, 14:46:42 »

All sorted, I ordered new plugs then set about gettingat them, what a pain on cylinders 2,4,6 because if the loom. I removed the coil pack to find all 3 plug wells full of mainly water!
I cleaned them out and gave the coil pack a good clean and found the rubbers that protect the plugtops and springs to have split I ordered acoil pack refurbish kit which includes new rubbers and springs. Replaced them, replaced the removed parts and the car is running sweet again. I'm hoping the water got in between the engine and the coil pack seal. But time will tell.
Thanks for all your advice

Omega General Help / Misfiring

« on: 12 January 2016, 20:35:05 »

I have a 2003 omega estate 2.6V6. After a short while of the car driving perfectly well, the engine fault light comes on and it starts misfiring. I've noticed this occurs at around 85 on the temperature gauge each time I drive it. I've had a probe plugged in and it indicates misfire unidentified cylinder, misfire cylinder 2, misfire cylinder 4. I've ordered new plugs, not delivered/fitted yet but I'm not convinced this will fix it. The confusing factor for me is it only happening once up to running temperature. All help appreciated
