[Mr.OmegaMan]

Photobucket is the easiest way to upload pics but will take some practice

if the light is on it must be storing something,try the paper clip test here   http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90581.0   and post up the results

Did you scan it ?  or were you there when it was scanned & did you see the results?

Or have you just been told no codes were showing/

As unusual for  the light to be on with nothing stored.

As said in another reply  . . .do the paperclip test & post up the results.

as regards code readers showing no codes-pants. Mate of mine bought a code reader and I undid MAF -to test his reader= EML was on - yet reader said no codes??
Paperclip straight away-73/74 iirc
Anyway point is----do paperclip test

will do.. if the rain ever stops.
I had the bonnet up earlier with the engine running.. and I could here a hissing sound coming from the very top of the engine..(theres four small pipes running into the top of the engine) one of these pipes was split, so repaired this the leak has stopped, could this have caused the EML to be on.. . if I disconnect the battery would this reset the system

NO!

Its a common misconception that disconnecting the battery will reset the ECU, but this is not the case on the Bosch Motronic ECUs, as the details are all in NVRAM.

In most cases on this ECU, to get the EML to go out, you simply need to fix the fault.

I used to buy all my Senators and Omegas at the Witney auctions, and they all came with service history. My last Witney purchase, in 2006, OE03EWW, had done 122000 miles, and in that time had got through four clutches. Ex police cars are well maintained, but they are driven hard with little regard to wear.

I was first attracted to Senators by an item on Top Gear where Quentin Wilson interviewed a police workshop mechanic.who said "we change the  brake pads every fortnight and the tyres once a month. Nothing else goes wrong on these cars".
