LPG Stalls on braking by
PG
Hi to all, I've just picked up my second LPG vehicle, and it runs fine on
petrol, but when it comes to running on LPG, it is good on long journeys,
but round town, it seems to stall whenever you let it idle or apply the
brakes, for instance, at traffic lights. It's over 2 weeks until the LPG
specialist I use can look at it, so I thought I'd have a look around for
some tips.
Thanks in...

Smelly LPG Jag by
Jonathan[_3_]
Well,
I have just bought an already converted Jaguar XJ8 3.2 privately. The
car runs brilliantly and is a wonderful ride but there is a strong smell
of fuel (which I presume is gas) in the boot all the time where the tank is.
When the car is left overnight this smell is also in the passenger cabin.
When driving the car with windows closed and aircon on you can't smell
anything but if you...

George Gosbee
Hello all,
Anyone know the implications of the new expensive car tax disc that is
coming, I know that my C5 V6 December 01 will be more costly but will
fitting lpg and having the V5 log book updated make any difference?

BIGAS Injector Rail by
Steve Shuttleworth
Anyone ever had problems with Bigas solenoids failing? Car's been running a
bit raggy for a few days lately (rough at idle on gas), but today it cut
down to 3 cylinders on my way home. When I looked into the problem, I found
one of the solenoid valves had broken in to 2 pieces (the bit inside which
moves up and down).
They're high speed solenoids (whatever that means) and they're fitted to...

MOT advisory question by
dean clayton
My car's just failed the MOT & the garage is going to rectify the failure &
retest. There were also some advisories (front brake pads, discs & bad earth
on rear light), which I've rectified myself. When they retest & issue a
certificate, can these advisories be removed from the new certificate, as
they've been corrected?

Charity Organisation & Biodiesel ???? by
My Name
Hi,
Could anyone please tell me why there is not charity organizations
being setup selling BioFuels?
#1 As it being a charity this would stop the high taxes being sold
on the fuel as it is not profit making (yet for non commercial usage).
#2 Would allow commercial users of oils (e.g. Restaurants etc) to be able
to donate their used oil FREE instead of heavy costs of waste removal

Cheapest European installation by
eezlivin@googlemail.com
Due to the high price of petrol, I note large engined cars are
suffering heavy depreation so therefore a bargain can be had until you
hit the pumps of course. So natrually LPG would equal the balance,
however it takes so long to pay for its self in the uk there is little
point, as depreation eats away at savings. so does anyone know the
different prices for installations in different countries...
