Happy 18th to z22se.co.uk 🎉 ...and many thanks to Matt for creating and hosting this fantastic website, and to all the knowledgeable folks, such as 'evocarlos' and 'vocky', for their outstanding contributions (y)

Hi Lenny, The genuine GM part number for the Astra is 12567487 - Fuel Evaporation Control Valve, which comes with part of the evaporator pipe assembly (kind of in a kit). The above part number may be superseded now to part no. 24427687 Hope this helps you out. :)

The genuine GM part numbers for the Z22SE chain kits are: TIming Chain Kit - 55570337 (includes the updated oil jet and the latest revision timing chain tensioner) Balance Chain Kit - 55563405 It is also prudent to purchase a new crankshaft oil seal ring for the oil/water pump cover (90571925)...

Hi Dan, glad you got it working again. The cylinder heads are prone to cracking around the spark plug threads which is due to overtightening of the spark plugs especially on cylinder No. 4 (gearbox end) due to a coolant gallery that runs very close to it. The spark plugs should only be...

Hi, it may be worth checking the two purple relays located in the rectangular black box that sits on top of the ABS unit. They are identical, one is the fuel pump relay and the other nearest the front of the car is the engine management control relay, which controls the injectors. Ensure the...

Hope it goes through the MOT alright. It's a shame to hear that your thinking of selling it after owning it for 16 years. :(

An MOT pass for the Vectra today at FG Barnes. :)

Hi, and welcome to the site. :)

Hi, have you checked the fuel pressure regulator?

My Vectra B has the GM triple electrode plugs (9199038) and is on it's fourth set at 124K miles.

My Vectra had just ticked over 124,000 (+3) miles at the recent MOT but likewise has only done just over 20,000 miles in the last ten years. It's had GM 5W30 fully synthetic oil for the oil changes ever since I've owned it from six months old. :)

Thanks Gary, hope your Vectra SRi is still going strong too. (y) They are pretty rare now and don't see many of them on the roads these days. :(

Probably not in quite as good condition as it was when you did the chains (that was over seven years ago :eek:), but it's still pretty good. (y)

Another MOT pass for the Vectra at FG Barnes. :)

Hi wayne_saunders_600, unfortunately I have no experience of these as I have a manual gearbox (Vectra B).but I guess if you can't get the button to stay in place permanently you may have to source a replacement. The part # you require is: 93195969 - Kit, Push Button and Contacts (Exc Wood...

May be worth checking that you haven't used E10 fuel in your vehicle as the gov.uk website indicates the following: E10 petrol is cleared for use in all Vauxhall vehicles with petrol engines, excluding: Models with the 2.2 litre direct injection petrol engine, motor code: Z22YH (Vectra...

ZafiraSRiJonny, the Continental fuel pump was fitted by many as a replacement for the Siemens but either can be used. It is worth checking the FPR ( Fuel Pressure Regulator) at the same time. I believe Vauxhall had a recall for both the pump and FPR at one stage for the Z22YH engine vehicles...

Nice work Matt (y) - I like the new theme!
