Hi a big thank you to you all, you were spot on, My wife took the haynes manual and kit to the car ( she normaly does sit on lawn mower engines) and stripped it down to the cam belt, and yes the inlet cam on the right bank was well out, so she took the old cam belt off, got all of the timing marks set and put a brand new cam belt kit on. It now goes like a rocket, I dont drive it now, I just aim it and press the peddle. My wife done it all in 4 hours (not bad for a woman)
           So with the info from all of you lot and the work from my wife I am on the road again. :y So in any of you are in Northampton and see a dark Green Omega Estate going at hyper speed with some people hanging on in side, it it me.
                    Thank you all ;)

My wife has got her own snap on tools to play with so she said she does not need any other tools ;D. So all I can say is if you want your wife to be as happy as mine, let them get dirty, give them a spanner and oil can. :y
                  Thanks to all of you

Glad to hear your car problems are sorted, I agree that is some wife you have there. Mine just about knows how to put petrol in her car.  Tyre pressure, brake fuid, oils, forget it.!!

Sorry to hear about the condition, hopefully the omega keeps your spirits up.  My dad is terminal and his 4lt supercharged jag and track days are all he looks forward too !!
