Well for nearly 20,000 miles ive been running my Fiat Coupe on LPG and after a few mods recently the 5th piston rings let go so i had a new piston and rings and associated gubbins put in.

Flashlube by Dave Griffs

Juddering & backfiring when accelerating by Mark & Tracey
Hi I've had LPG fitted to my 99 Vectra 2.5 V6 for just under a year now and I've notice that accelerating or applying power at low revs is no longer smooth on LPG (fine on petrol), occasionally I get a quiet back fire if I persist on keeping the pedal to the floor (overtaking at 50mph in 5th gear instead of dropping a gear). I have a feeling that one or more sparkplugs are not igniting the...

Hard to start if first fire missed. by Jason James
This problem has been a feature of the OMVL system fitted to a Ford V8 I own. If you miss the first 'kick', then you have to crank the engine as if to clear out an over-rich situation. The same thing applies if the engine is turned off, and then attempted to start before 5 mins have elapsed. The system has been tuned many times by the original fitter mechanic. He says its normal, and the owners...

LPG and underslung tanks on a Range Rover P38 by TonywBond
Hi all, I'm interested in knowing if any of you have a managed to do an LPG conversion on a Range Rover P38 (mine is a 4.6 HSE on a 99 plate) that does not either use the spare wheel well (2 punctures in the last year) or sit in the boot. I know that for both defenders and discos you can fit underslung tanks so I guess my question is can this be done on a p38 and if so does anyone recomend a...

LPG on multi port EFi by john
Someone said to me today that it was just a case of fitting a solenoid and feeding LPG or petrol through the same pipe to the injectors. Sounds /far/ too easy........ Engine is a small block Chevy 350 with a Tuned Port Injection unit. john

Emmegas switch by big jon
I wonder if any one can help, does the old emmegas changeover switch( 7 wires on back of unit) automatically change the vehicle to gas once running, or do you have to do it manually. I am willing to buy an automatic unit, but if the one I have does it, then why spend the money on something that is perfectly fine.
