Afternoon group... I wonder if anyone can give me some pointers here as to what could be the problem. I have a BRG (BRC?) LPG system fitted and it keeps dropping back to petrol. The evaporator is at running temperature (hand hot) and it does it at odd times, sometimes for a fraction of a second (giving a splutter when under power) and sometimes for minutes. This is at all stages of a journey,...

Hi all, Will be selling my diesel car soon... and I know nothing about LPG. Can somebody point me to some info on the web or give me some advice of the pitfalls and things to avoid... Can any MPG conversion be used at any petrol station (I have BP near me that sells LPG)... I really am a newbie...

Hello all, A question for the technically knowledgeable amongst us, I have a Citroen XM 3.0 auto 1998 with a ES9J4 motor and Bosch MP 7.0 ecu. Fitted with a BRC Just Heavy system. This works apart from not very good mpg and it stalls sometimes on tickover (lpg only). Going through the instructions again I have found that the lambda sensor can be wired to be emulated or not as needs be. But the...

i have a 1.8 volkswagen with a webber dtml carb on it. the mixer is like 2 little mixers joined together and has 2 power valves. the only other adjustment is 1 thumbscrew on the reducer. the powervalves (1 for each mixer) are roughly 1/3 closed, and the reducer adjusted to give a tickover of around 850 rpm. the car is very lacking in power compared to on petrol - to drive it feels like it...

Last month the engine in my escort went cutup (1.8 zeta). The cause of this tragic event was solely down to a spot of bad weather. Namely rain. The rain water was sucked up through the air filter and entered the engine. The engine tried to compress the water, but the water wasn't having non of that. A good old Christian burial will be arranged in the near future for the escort, that's if I am...

How much does bottled gas work out at per litre (gross) As all I can find is that they are sold by the kg, Also which bottled gas is lpg, I read somewhere that it can cost 16p pl Thanks,

I bought a 92 fairmont recently and the lpg was running fine. One day it suddenly started running very bad-wouldnt idle above 250rpm and the accelerater wouldnt make a difference. I had to take the head off so I changed dizzy cap, leads, plugs etc while doing that (have you ever tried to get to the dstributer with the intake manifold on on the multipoint injected falcons-brain surgery...

Hello! Iam looking for a mixer to fit on the Weber 38 DGAS on Ford V6 3l Essex. Has someone laying around? Or does someone know where to buy such a mixer? :-) Michael from Germany

I am fitting a conversion kit to my Mercedes 230TE. To manage the fuel pump while running on LPG I have one relay which I have been told by the supplier is to be fitted in the 12 supply to the pump. I have since read that this is a big NO NO and would like some advice on the best way to manage the injector pump please. Thanks Roger

Have had various quotes for fitting LPG to our Discovery. Prins, OVML,LandiRezno are only three of the makes and all of them were about the same price apart from the Prins, which was more expensive but came with a 2 year warranty. So for a year 2000 Discovery, are there any makes which suit it better or are they pretty much all the same?

i have a 70 litre single hole cylnder, but the multivalve doesn't have a solenoid valve on it. it it acceptable to just mount a solenoid next to the tank, or do i need to swap the multivalve for a newer one with a solenoid? -- ********** This message printed on recyclable media*********** (Think about it!)

I have a 2 litre air-cooled engine which I am about to convert to lpg, as lpg burns much hotter than petrol I want to do everything possible to keep the temperature down, so what can I do, I guess most of the work would involves the lubrication system such as types of oil, coolers + more. Any thoughts appreciated, Thanks

I have almost finished the lpg conversion on my 1995 3.9 Disco but before I chop the last few wires I would greatly appreciate your advice. 1. The Leonardo needs its blue/yellow wire connected to the throttle position sensor (TPS) and the TPS has three wires coming out of it (Lucas) yellow, red, green. Which should I connect to? 2. The Leonardo needs its orange wire connected to the...

I have just tried offering up the mixer that was supplied to me for my 1995 LR Disco 3.9 and it does not quite fit. The plenum chamber inlet is too large a diameter, by about 0.8mm, for the "socket" on the mixer to push on. It seems that I have a few choices.... Reduce the dia of the plenum chamber inlet. Have "someone" bore out the mixer to increase its internal dia. Swap for a slightly bigger...

Ok, a "proper" bulk tank at home seems like a non-starter for me if only because of the 3 metre space required around it. But what about a "mini" tank? My nearest lpg filling station is a few miles away and it would be nice to do a really "big" fill. Has anyone ever tried filling portable tanks and then used those to top up the car?

There was a link in this group awhile ago to 'universal LPG interface cable' on ebay, supposedly fits almost all models. I can't seem to find one now - any pointers on where to look? Specifically I'm interested in Autronics & BRC Just Light cables. TIA, Peter

Hi, We are thinking of converting our 3.3 Petrol grand voyager(1997). Currently getting about 20/22MPG and doing at least 20k Miles per annum. Just wondering a few thing: - Has anyone else has done the same on a Voyager, and if they experienced any problems? - Can anyone reccomend some converters in the Berkshire area?
