Hi all, first post so be gentle. Had an LPG backfire in the VS 3.8L while on the freeway (blew the clips off the air filter box) and now the engine is making a very distinct knocking/tapping sound that gets louder with revs. Prior to this there was a different tapping that went away with revs...

Hi Peeps, have just joined the forum and this is my first post although I have read quite a bit one here over the past - maybe too much cos now i'm confused!! am very active on a couple dirt bike forums (hence the username!) and have learnt a heap on them so now that I'm going to be...

Hey guys, I've had my vp for about a year now and it has always ran well on lpg but petrol has always been sketchy when you would switch it from lpg to petrol I thought this may have been a fuel filter or fuel pump problem so I did a service and changed them as well as air and oil filter(this...

Hi guys, I've just got my hands on a Sprintgas LPG system for my vs statesman and am at the stage of wiring it all up. In regards to the lambda controller, I need to find out how to wire it all correctly. I assume that one of the wires goes to the oxygen sensor and another to the stepper...

So I have a vs wagon, I recently got LPG installed and its the 'donut' tank, it's placed where the spare wheel originally goes, now the spare wheel will have to sit in the r/h side of the cargo area but I was curious if it can be placed underneath the car somehow ? It would be allot more...

It has pretty good tyres, LPG/Petrol, a very good motor, and drives well. But it is rough - the odd body damage, missing door strip, the high beam stalk is dodgy, needs a new catch for the glovebox, a couple of fuse holders are melted but working. It is white with matching bumpers/strips and has...

Hi All Has any one an idea on the reason a factory fitted MY10 LPG Berlina would beep rapidly when out of gas? Usually she beeps slowly - once per second; however today she started beeping faster - 2 times per second. Still switches over to fuel with no issues and vice versa, and has...

A mechanic mate of mine told me that converting my 5.0 VK to LPG could help engine performance if I did a full conversion and had the engine tuned purely for LPG. He reckons you can get a bit more out of it because the LPG comes in cold. I'm just wondering if anyone else has heard or tried...

Hi, my VQ Statesman has LPG, which I would like to remove or get removed. Does anybody know of a LPG Specialist around Adelaide, or a mechanic or business who could professionally remove my entire LPG System? It's barely any better for fuel costs, so why have it? And the power loss is extremely...

Hi Everyone, I've had a really annoying prolem with my VT which started not long after I had the LPG system fitted. The car will usually start OK, and I can drive off, but get say 100m down the road and it just goes dead. No cough and splutter, just stalls. If I knock it into neutral and turn...
