LPG problems

What's the MPG like? Can I use chip fat and veggie oil? What about LPG?

LPG problems

Post by jonnyred » Mon Jul 04, 2016 9:12 pm

Just checking to see if anyone else has any LPG problems, I bought mine with an LPG conversion but its constantly playing up. I will be taking it back to the supplier as they serviced the LPG in February i bought it in April and its played up ever since. It frequently plays up and switches back over to petrol on a hill. I have the donut tank and i need to find out full capacity, Filled up on Saturday in Axminster Devon, got a mile down the road and it beeped to change back over, Came home Sunday had to keep switching between the petrol and LPG, hit the M5 did a steady 65 all the way back to Bristol on the LPG fine. Came off at Portishead beeped and had to switch back to petrol and then would not go back on gas but i knew it couldnt be out of gas as we had only done 70 miles or 110 Km. Paeked up for 2 hours at home then went out again, straight on LPG ! Its infutiating. Anyone else with LPG have the same ?

The fuel gauge float / sender is also the LPG shut off valve ..maybe some thing to do with it's set up .. or the floats actuating arm is bent ..??
