Omega General Help / Head gasket on 1999 2.0 ltr.

« on: 12 January 2009, 18:22:13 »

Hi all.
I got a chance to get a omega 1999 2.0ltr auto estate gls with 88.000 on the clock for a couple of hundred pounds.
Got full service history and 10 month mot. Last year a new exhaust has been fitted including cat. Car is nice and would be perfect for my needs. The bad point is the head gasket is gone but have been ashured engine has not been cooked. Still running very nicely.
I do the work myself just like to ask if there is anything else I should look out for on the car and while I do the head.
Thanks for your help guys.

Newbie Welcome Area / Newbie with a question

Hi all. I had a senator few years ago and loved it. Now I got a chance to buy a 1999 2.0 ltr omega estate auto for a couple of hundred. The car done 88.000 m, full historie, got a year mot and looks very tidy and looked after. New exhaust and cat last summer. The bad point is the head gasket is gone. I can do this myself, just like to know if there is anything I should look out for? Engine hasn't been cooked just oil in water, still starts and runs fine.
Any advise would be perfect.
Thanks guys.
