thanks for the reply will try that and see but i don,t think it will effect the running of the car but you never no, i am running out of ideas and the car is up for mot real soon and is almost certainly going to fail the emmissions test

[Entwood]

Well if it is always sucking air it counts as a vac leak, and the vac system is pretty complicated, vac leaks cause poor running ..... so worth a try .. what is there to lose ??

ok my omega is still misfiring but today it got really bad as in almost undriveable, it is not to bad under very light throttle but any more and it spluters and misfires really bad any ideas? as this is a old thread i don,t want to go over everything again but to update the EML is still not on, the car starts ok, idles ok , under very light throttle ok , under very heavy throttle mising really bad , any help much appreciated

Could it be fuel starvation under load. ?Blocked/restricted fuel filter?
Only check is to replace, I think but worth trying.

[psnimv6]

could be right easy to change so will try it just to rule it out thanks

[psnimv6]

any other ideas? please

Makes me think of MAF sensor or TPS but either of those would raise a fault code. (have you checked for codes, and that the light is working?)

Clogged air filter?

Failing that maybe the coil pack.

thanks for reply the air filter is not dirty and the eml is working as it should , the coil pack looks as good as new as do the leads no rust or corrosion , i have not had the codes read as the light goes off as expected and does not come on again ,
