    Default Hesitates when accelerating quickly on LPG?

    My dual-fuel VXII has just started hesitating if I accelerate hard when on LPG. Not when on petrol.

    This is very dangerous when pulling out across traffic. Backing off solves the problem. I thought it may have had something to do with air intake or the spark plugs, but I replaced the air filter and the spark plugs and still no improvement. That leaves me to think it's not getting enough gas when I accelerate too quickly, but it's getting enough for most ordinary driving.

    Any thoughts on what could be the problem / solution?

    Thanks.

    Have you replaced plug leads? Gas tends to make minor problems major. That is it will run fine on petrol and not show any problems but when on gas????? Just a thought. Plus I take it that you have the earlier venturi type system fitted.
