All good with them, they’re removed and the new ones in, just wondering what these 2 O’rings are for from the pack

So where I have removed the rubber from. That tin look ring should be removed with the seal hey?

The coil seals in the rocker are pricks to get out aren't they, just crumble when I get at them with the pick tool

I got the Haynes bible there but doesn’t say anything about patterns, I’ll download that on the pc shortly. Might go invest in a little pick tool on my adventures today. Cheers for that mate

Cheers Fu! Will be getting back to it since I’m back home from working away. Is there a sequence for the rockers as well? Also, I’m having trouble taking the coil seals out of the rockers, is there an easy solution to removing these?

Is there a sequence to tightening the rocker cover bolts? And at what nm? Or is it a case of do it up to just over hand tight? Cause they were easy to undo

Can you remove the fuel line without the tool or should II just wait to get one tomorrow?

yea sweet, cheers for that. Was worried I would spill some down into the motor if I tried. Drilled out the PCV a while ago as per your thread on it. You can definitely hear the system sucking haha

Got all that good gear from Revhigh a little back. Just seen some that put the goop where they have it in the pictures, but some that don't do it. Just wanna see others opinions so don't risk it leakiing

Is the drivers side the side that is normally more gunked up than the other?

As for when putting in the new gaskets for the rockers, after cleaning up the contact areas, am I to put some of the blue gasket maker in the corners where they have applied it in the factory? (pictures should show the old stuff)

Got the driiverrs siide Rocker cover off, everything is looking nice and clean enough, please tell me otherwise if I am seeing things. Gotta grab a fuel line tool to get the inlet off to get to the other cover with ease. And didn't have to do much with the gas gear, only disconnected the lines...

Thanks mate, appreciate it!

Get to also find out if the motors been maintained well prior to my ownership

will do, cheers for that. No way to remove the parts needed with them in the way

Cheers, I have done the PCV and catch can upgrade a while back. everything is still looking good there. didn't think of getting a second gasket instead of using the maker, will get one today and do that. I know I will have to get under the plenum again eventually. You have any idea about my...

Hopefully, my guess is I can tie them off since they sit after the injectors meaning nothing should be running through it.

Next thing is, I have to remove a snapped bolt from the block which I over torqued some time ago. Turns out it snapped a bit further down than I would have liked, so I have to remove the inlet manifold and rockers to get to it with the easy out. Sadly it has an aftermarket LPG vapour system in...

Awesome cheers mate, yea it’ll have a couple of day to dry while I do some things. I will post up my next problem after I get comfortable later on haha

Pretty sure I know the answer, just wanted a second opinion. Would I need to drain the oil if I am removing the manifold to install insulators? Cheers

Cheer mate, yea I will give it as clean on the weekend. I have started to notice the car is running like a pig at the moment, so hopefully that does the job. If not, I will purchase a new one and replace it. Would I just clean it with say degreaser or something better?

I only replaced it about 1k ago, if that. I checked and still looking nice and clean. Might just drop and replace it again with the HPR I have sitting there and hope that does it

08' VE Omega - LE0 Last week this code decided to hang and hasn't left yet. Could someone point me in the direction of where to start with this, ie, remove and clean the sensor and the port or just buy a replacement? Or is there other steps I can try before spending money? Oil level is...

Where would you recommend buying the filters in bulk? supercrap? Ripco? or somewhere better

My old man quoted this to me the other day when I told him about the Kingswood I have coming next weekend haha have the 2 EA's down back, the missos lancer and my Omega haha

just filter every 2k I think he was meaning. Oil & filter every 6k. Good intervals really if you do a lot of stop start driving. I do similar, every 6-8k and have only heard it runner smoother overtime.

Nice car man! Hopefully brings you a lot of joy and a hassle free life! Where abouts are you located?

This is the man that does an awesome write up on the mod, which I followed. https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/alloytec-pcv-problem-fix.279039/ highly recommend.

I have a similar problem with oil over the bottom front of the motor, possibly/hopefully just a rocker gasket needing replacing, they are pretty cheap. I got mine off Revhigh, still to replace it thought. And that knock at the front would be the strut top I would assume, yet to get mine replaced...

Oh man, not another wet fart running around Brissy D:

I have an Omega one I can send you? :P

Yea, sounds odd I know. It's not that I don't like it, I just want all the extra looms and gear out from under the bonnet and the big ass tank out of the boot. Also around where I live and work, there is only 1 servo that is somewhat convenient with LPG but is always out of order. I check once...

I sure did. Rest assured, give it a few months and some TLC, I will have my Kingswood with a red 202 up and running and have some sensible cruising fun.

I have an aftermarket Kings system, Vapour injection that the PO must have got installed and the times (I think twice in the past year) that I have topped up and used it, I have found no difference in power whatsoever. The AC bogs the car more than LPG does.

haven't experienced that yet, touch wood. I haven't asked around Brisbane for pricing on doing the job, but I know Heavy duty motorsports Oxley would probably tackle the job. Just buy your own genuine chains first from maybe revhigh or someone of that reputation

That's quite the build up there haha The way it's sitting is normal though, mines the same, think it has something to do with idle otherwise no air would get through. Could be wrong though

As I speak. I am doing an oil and filter change, trying this fusion stuff out with a little top up with edge. Will only be in the car for a couple of thousand, if that. Was going to wait until I pulled the motor apart, but the moped still isn’t on the road and it’s hit just over 7500k since the...

Yea I did that haha the old stuff was peeling off so thought I would give it a go, was looking for western bulldogs fabric at spotlight but this was the next best thing hahaha just trying some colour in there, I will originally change it over for some burgundy suede at some point

I did a PPSR check when I purchased it and things checked out. I just didn't know if that went off what it says in the car or what, so must be genuine. the most I got told by the dealership was that it was bought in by an older couple that use to travel, but he didn't say whether it was just...
