Ok only just had time now to have a proper look, can find nothing. Pedal trick makes spanner light flash slowly 4 times - then nothing. Advice appreciated

Omega General Help / Spanner light
« on: 15 July 2013, 15:42:01 »
Hello all, having just done the cambelt and fitted new coil packs and given various things a good clean, I re-connected the battery and started up - engine running great but l have the 'spanner light' on..everything is connected properly and the engine is certainly not in 'limp mode'. Anybody any ideas? It's a manual so not a gearbox fault..and starts so not immobiliser, also no codes are showing - engine running great?? Could I switch it off with a tech 2 if needs be? All advice appreciated!

Since using sainsbury 'super' light went out and never came back on. If I use BP the light will come on after about 20 miles, switch back to sainsbury and it goes off again..might work for you too..

I know! I loved that lock up! 
At some point this year the cam belt is going to need changing and the water pump with it plus other jobs as always with an omega! So I'm just thinking of ways to get it done..cheers for advice!

General Car Chat / EML light
« on: 07 January 2013, 17:02:16 »
Happy New year everyone! I have the usual 3.2 problem of EML coming on. I cannot move the sensors behind the main cats to fix this as they have been removed..however, by chance I have found that using sainsbury super petrol puts the light out after 50 miles or so - well, it does for me anyway! If I go back to BP after a while it comes back on again..it may not work for anyone else but just thought I'd put it out there..
