Hi guys just joined as just got an omega , nothing flash just to get to work and back , thought i was getting a bargain only paid £250 for it off ebay , yes another ebay disaster , bloke sold it too me without mot and tax however had fail sheet for mot , sorted out the problems mainly bad earths as it was electrical , now there are just 3 problems tyres and rear shock , emmisions.
So this is the problems , ok tyres not a problem however on getting the car home and not checking my own stupid fault i have no locking wheel nut key , the locking bolts have a spinning disc on them so cant get a scoket on them and they have 3 holes in , looks like a socket with 3 prongs goes on them and removes , any ideas how to get them off,
shock cheap and easy i think to do ,
now the big one , i thought the emmisions were because the car had been stood for 6 months before went for test however having a look tonight this is what i found ,
coolant has disapered , not leaked onto floor its just gone , also went to take spark plugs out and put new ones in and the tops where covered and i mean nearly full onto the ht leads with oil , has the head gone , can it be done by a diyer , have loads of tools , need any special ones .
everything else on the car is spot on its a 2.0l auto 1996 p reg , please help as i drove this car back and was gonig to fix and sell now i want to keep it and get rid of my subaru!! all help would be great cheers guys
