Ok, just bought this 09 omega couple of months ago and asked this forum for help with that dam engine light, and I thought I had fixed it with buying the really expensive 98 octane fuel, but now it has started with the missing on acceleration, and that dam engine light keeps coming on AGAIN. So...

hi guys, new to this forum. Engine light suddenly came on today. It has been serviced (2 months ago) with no issues. Checked the oil and that seemed fine. I did change the battery 1 week ago but cant see there would be any relevance to that. Any advice would be great.

G'day all, My VR V8 Caprice has started playing up in Ballarat, yup bloody old here. Over the last few days, first thing in the morning (when it's icy cold) it's been hard to start on LPG. Then once it does start, it runs for 2-3 miinutes, misfires badly & dies. If I try to change to...

Long story short. About 2 months ago, got engine warning light come for 30 sec or so then went. (Knew it'd be nothing really bad as I've only just put a new motor in) Since then have put an A/F gauge in and have been able to see what exactly is going on with the mixture. As fuel...
