Omega General Help / Oil pump gone
« on: 12 May 2008, 14:08:33 »
hey all, im new here so hi
a friend has recently given me his omega as he was gonna scrap it, he told me to come here for help so here i am, the oil light is always on at the moment and hes told me the oil pump has had it, apparantly a new one from vxl is approx £500 let alone fitting. due to the oil pump being knackered the engine is obviously making a fair bit of noise at the top end (sounds like a diesel) do u guys rekon it could just be the cams and lifters and if i replace the pump it'll go away or should i replace these at the same time. im pritty handy with cars so ill be undertaking all work myself as to reduce costs, im also a member of the autobahnstormers club as i already own a vxl senator 3.0 24v
so if anyone could point me in the right direction or give any advice on this i would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Gaz
p.s its a 2.5 v6 engine. S reg, and on another note i wont be buying a brand new pump as ive found a 2nd hand recon one with 6months guarantee for £50
