Omega General Help / Thank You!
« on: 04 October 2010, 21:45:03 »
Hi Peeps
Just a quick thank you to you all especially weblung (Lee) who done the change over yesterday.
He was still falling about in the dark last night and didnt get home till the early hours.
Cheers mate.
Goldie is mobile again!!
Not only that,the central locking has started working again and all it needed was the battery off for a few hours,so Martin the other key will be on its way to you for refurbish in the next few days!
Only problem is I cant find the blooming radio code,any ideas anyone?
A very happy customer,thank you all.
Paul.

Hi Guys (and Girls)
Everything in place for weblung to do the job on the engine for me on Sunday...........except a engine hoist!!
Mate at HSS was showing two in stock,went to pick one up and neither are there!!
Does anyone have one we can borrow for the day?
Must be in the King's Lynn area or near to Weblung (Dudley,West Midlands)??
Alternatively any suggestions,at the moment I am more than annoyed,all parts etc ready except the blooming lifting gear!!
I dont want to let Lee down.
HELP!!
Thanks
Paul

Apparently it was all done?
My son in law done it,but I was not privvy to the change.
It was full serviced etc before I bought it from them.
If I can get this engine,I think it might be the way to go.
Will PM you later Welung.
Cheers everyone.

Hi Dave
Done 70k,belt etc changed 20k ago (aprox 23 months).
The belt did not break,but on one part of it it has shredded the "teeth" on the belt.Lots of belt debris on the "cogs".
There was no warning,temperature etc has been constant,does not use water,but has been using a bit of oil.
Has had the few niggles as mentioned previosly,C/L etc.
Runs (or did) well,there was a little rattle I noticed aprox half hour before it went pop,sounded like a loose bolt on the exhaust type "tink",put it down to having a new exhaust fitted recently and something was loose,was only noticeable with window open and stationary in traffic.
When it stopped there was a strong smell of oil and petrol.
About it.

Thanks both of you.
Got the PM welung,will digest wile she watches X Factor!
I am thinking second hand engine.
To answer the question "is it worth it" the motors body and interior is in very good nick,in the last 2 months though,it has had a new exhaust system (£250) a new HBV (£45) and new tyres (£300),I still have the problem of central locking not working including the boot not opening on the button and the blooming interior light stays on when it is locked!!
Doing the sums,I might as well get it ship shape again,it is going to cost me a lot more to buy another decent car,so when this is done,hopefully she will last me another five years or so.
I shall sleep on it,do any of you know anyone in Norfolk like likes to "dabble" on motors?
Thank you again.
Paul.

Not knowing alot it seems possible that the "bottom end" seems alright as the cog turns fully(the one on the right as you look at the engine),the left one dosnt.
Having had bad experiences with garages before,round here they know I can drive em,but fix em...........nah??
One has already said £800 ish,depends on how much damage,I could possibly get an engine for £400 but then that will need fitting,looks like I will have to get the bike out!!
