Hi all, Just stumbled across this group while looking into converting an engine to LPG. I'm very comfortable with the plumbing and tuning of gasoline EFI systems, but I'd like to try my hand at LPG. Are there commercially-available liquid-phase injectors and methods of delivery (booster pump, etc)? Just about everything I've seen so far relates to gas injection which I like less because it...

Hi all I hope someone can help!! I've got a Honda Accord (99) which i had converted to gas a year ago. When I drive the car in petrol mode, its fine and never cuts off. But when I drive in gas mode, its fine for a few days, but then the engine management light on the dash board lights up and the car starts cutting off. This cycle continues all the time and I've been down to the garage where I...

Completely baffled and hope someone can shed some light on a very frustrating issue. I have a 2001 2.0L Honda Accord and had it professionally converted to a Romano lpg system 12 months ago at 45000 miles (now on 65000 miles). Pretty much from the start of the conversion the engine management light came on, but it only comes on when driving on lpg. Have taken it back to the LPG guy many times...

Hi, i have just acquired a 1998 Mitsubishi Shogun with a leonardo LPG system fitted and I would like to find out how to operate it properly. It came with out a handbook or manual so I am not sure what is happening when the lights come on or start flashing. I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction to get a handbook/manual

Hi I am about to get an Audi A8 3.0 Saloon 4d 2976cc CVT converted to LPG Has anyone had a similar car converted and can anyone recommend a good conversion? I did some research on that, but anyone I rung and ask for quotation is trying to sell different installation make. I am really confused which one should I get. Which one will be good for my car? I just want to choose the right one

Can anybody tell me about the rough costs and procedure for getting a bulk tank at home? roughly how much does LPG cost per litre when bought in bulk?, and can you get a roughly accurate transfer gauge to use when decanting it? (so i can share it with a mate and divvy up the cost more accurately)

When the emissions are checked for the MoT test, on vehicles with lpg conversions is it checked when running on petrol or gas? I thought it was tested on what the vehicle was running on at the time it is presented for the MoT but my B-in-Law was told it has to be tested on petrol (and failed).

I'm considering a Range Rover Vogue SE 3.9 EFi that has an LPG system installed, but the switch over control has failed. I've been told the system installed is a Lovato system but I can't find too much info on them. Are spares for this system easy to get hold of, or are they pretty much universal, with one maker supplying everyone with switches, another supplying tanks, and then the brands...

I am starting to look around for an lpg car, probably an astra or similar, but am wondering if I am doing the right thing. I have followed the lpg prices and they seem to be creeping up above the 50% less than petrol mark. Before I jump in can anyone tell me if the UK government have made any comments re the differential between petrol and lpg. Must admit, taking mpg and differential and diesel...

Dear all, I've had my original ECU remapped on my '02 Volvo V40 1.8i to improve performance. Now I've got an LPG system fitted (Zavoli Alisei-N multipoint sequential), how do I ensure that the LPG system is also taking advantage of my remapped settings in the original ECU? Someone mentioned 'recalibrating the LPG system to the ECU' to do this.

Hi LPGers. Does anyone have a factory-fitted dual-fuel LPG Volvo V40? If so, can you tell me whatg the boot area looks like? Even send me a photo of it? I've had LPG fitted to mine, but have a dilema regarding what tank to fit. As the spare wheel wellis very small, I can only fit a tiny doughnut tank in

Any thoughts on this? http://www.arloff.myffi.biz/uk/ Cant imagine how its supposed to work, the blurb says its not a petrol additive (but it goes in the tank, how can it not be) but a 'combustion chamber conditioner' which, if anyone remembers the claims, acetone could also be called as its supposed to help the fuel burn more efficiently? As its a pellet its probably nothing to do with...

Hi LPG People, Can anyone tell me the dimentions (diameter & height) of the factory-fitted LPG doughnut tank, fitted into the spare wheel well on a Volvo V40? Preferably a 2002 model. I've converted my V40 to LPG and currently have an 18 gallon cylinder tank behind the rear seats. As this restricts the use of the loading bay area, I'm thinking of altering it to a doughnut tank in the spare...

Hi I have a transit 2 litre dohc 1998 s reg with a Tartarini tec 97 system. The problem that has happened now is that it has completely smashed up the air filter box and all the air intake system up to the inlet. It has been backfiring. I have taken it to an lpg place and they say their system cannot read the box, although it should be able to. I have ordered a new air intake system but I am...

I have the above system fitted to a 4l jeep cherokee. Worked fine for ages now will start on lpg but rev the engine and it wont tick over/cuts out. Been in the garage twice now had new diaphragm and part harness, both times goes great for about 20 miles then back to previous fault condition. Anyone got any advice? TIA HOG88

Hi, I am changing from a carburetta to a fuel injected espace and transfering the parts that are suitable from my old espace to the newer model. I was wondering wether I should splash out an extra 2 or £300 and go for gas injected lpg setup. Does anyone have any views as to wether it is worth it and what are the advantages and disadvantages. I will probably get the Vogas Sequential Gas...

Hi I am in the process of transfering my lpg setup from my old Espace mk1 to a newer series 3 model. I think I will have to replace the toroidal tank because the identification stamp has corroded and much of it is now unreadable including the date stamp. Can just make out the pressure test and capacity. I am wondering if it is still seen to be OK with cop11 regulations to have a tank that has...
