LPG Passat - compression down on number 4 cyl by stevet
Hi All I've been having a problem with a mis-fire while running on gas for the last couple of months. I have gradually changed all of the ignition components, plugs, coil pack, leads etc. and still have the misfire. It seems to run quite smoothly on petrol but misses on gas, more so at the lower revs under load than at the higher revs. So I decided to do a compression test today. (had to buy...

Pros/Cons: landi or prins? by Angus Robins
Am going to get car converted in the next couple of days and have been told by a green chap that the landi / landi renzo systems are unreliable and he recommends a prins or brc system. I would have to travel an additional three hours each way to meet the greenfuel chaps people. Can anyone tell me if why I should or shouldn't bother with the additional journey? I'm thinking of service costs...

mixture messed up by jeff_p
I have an 84 Merc with an OMVL open-loop set up. After some unrelated problems the lpg system has been left unadjusted such that there's an almost-instantaneous minor backfire if I switch to gas. What's the method for stting up the vapouriser from scratch? JP

what causes backfiring? by Tom Woods
My car has started backfiring a lot today and i was wondering if anybody could suggest what the cause might be. It is a carbed engine and has a simple open loop gas system on. I run it on gas only. When it has been backfiring it blows the flexy pipe off at the air box and sometimes pops a vacuum line out of the inlet manifold (where the brake servo is fed from). Whenever it pops the vacuum line...

Filling experience by Ian Hatten

Outside temp was -1c and as I was filling there was a faint flow of vapour coming from around the gas nozzle. When the tank was filled I went to disconnect the hose and the nozzle was covered in frost and also my jacket sleeve was sprayed with what I assume to be was liquid gas. I...

Misfire under load by Peter
What could possibly cause misfire in one cylinder only when running under load, rpm range 2-3K? It's V6 engine with separate coil pack for each cyl, and plugs have been changed couple of months ago. It idles smoothly so I'd tend to exclude any vacuum leaks. Misfires only when running on LPG (single point closed loop), petrol runs just fine. When it misfires Check Engine flashes (and computer...
