fatharris Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 Aye, hoping that's the case for the pump, but the lack of turning over is causing me more concern, no point fixing the fuelling system if there is something more sinister at hand around the corner!

3VOM Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 What's more concerning is the engine will not turn over on the starter at all, even with a brand new battery on. The solenoid is working, but no turning over. Did before but not now. Can't even roll it in gear (whole engine appears to turn on its mounts.) Sounds like the starter has jammed. Put car in gear and try to push forwards and backwards. Hopefully you'll hear a clunk as it disengages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatharris Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 Well, I finally pulled my finger out and started stripping the Omega to find the cause of the problem. Didn't take me long. Shame really, it was a pleasant cruiser but this is now destined for the scrappy. Can probably wait a while, MrsH is eight days overdue now. At least I'm going to get a clear driveway again.

Dave_Q Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Looks pretty terminal, chain slipped or something maybe? RIP LIL SOLJA, may the weigh in be profitable and the replacement chodtastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatharris Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 On and gone. Farewell Omega! Got £100 for it which was better than CarTakeBack offered (£12!) Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk Coprolalia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatharris Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 Nah, I couldn't do it online for some reason and by the time I remembered, I already wanted the thing off my driveway. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Poor show. That's two cars in as many days getting scrapped on here. Both newer than the car I just put through an MOT! I cri errytime. Wingz123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
