Astra G mrk4 factory fit lpg 100 miles for £10.50 @76.9p per liter of lpg

Try Foxes Towbars near the Meteor Retail park. I have been there a couple of times with LPG issues and the guy there is very helpful. He might replace the filler for you to, depending on how busy he his, as he mainly does towbars during the summer months and concentrates on LPG conversions during ...

I did email edward but he never replied.

Just had a qauote of £150 for an lpg service seems high to me what you think ?

Hi guys im looking for an lpg service around Derbyshire for my Astra Mk4 factory fit system. Did email my local lpg specailist for a quote for an lpg service but all he did was qoute me to have a new system so makes me think if they cant read email correctly can they do the job correctly.

Hi guys just wondering what do they do on an lpg service what do they change or test and how much normally for a service ?

Vauxhall astra 1600 52 plate

Hi guys been offered a 1999 astra lpg for £700 is it worth it it will have 12 months mot.

It is a very common problem for the thermostat to stick on the Vauxhall Astra.

The gauge should read between 80 and 90deg. once warmed up.

If you find that the temperature is only ever this when in static traffic and drops very low when moving, the thermostat is sticking and needs replacement ...

Hi guys whats your temp gauge read on a normal journey of around 20 mins driving ?

Unlikely to be a different part but unless you have a noticeable misfire the coil pack is unlikely to be the cause of your problem.
Start by examining the air filter and checking the plugs and plug gaps
Vauxhalls are very prone to problems with the EGR valve gunging up which causes rough running ...

Hi guys i want to replace my coil pack on my astra mk 4 after trying other things car still running @!## and mileage is down per tank refill so what my question is does anyone have the part number also does the coil pack from an astra mk 4 petrol car fit or is it a pacific part for the lpg astra ?

Hi m8 to this day i still dont know what system i have i took it monday to an lpg garage to see about having the filler valve replaced because of the problem when filling and he gave a price of £85. while i was there i spoke to him about the problems and he said coil pack but i wasnt convinced but ...

Hi guys weres my stepper motor on my astra mk4 so i can clean it done a few other jobs like spark plugs carb cleaned but still hesitates and idles up and down.

thanks

Hi,

Funnily enough, I have, today, had to gain access to the back of the filler to replace the cap tether, and I'll tell you now, it was a little rusty. I certainly wouldn't relish tackling it on a cold day.

Getting to it isn't too bad though. Take the parcel shelf off and remove the shelf ...

Firstly when you finish filling up and you release trigger do you just get a puff of gas or a gush of liquid gas cuming back out

You should get 'just a puff', however it is a fairly dramatic puff!! and scarey for LPG newbies. Hopefully you've seen some other people filling so you'll get some idea ...

Hi,

Yes, that's your throttle body.

Is that what you are after? Are you going to clean out the throttle body, butterfly and clean out the gunk in the breather pipes?

Best Regards

Yes m8 if i can find out which are the breather pipes lol i bet you can tell how often i work on cars. it ...

You will struggle to find a Vauxhall dealership still supporting your vehicle.

I have found all but one in Derby and they are not cheap.

If your vehicle has the Necam Koltec system installed - it is really worth learning how it operates ...

yes m8 tried other places i learnt to stand well back after the first time as i was covered in lpg and could smell it on my clothes and skin until i had a shower and change of clothes. will try getting housing cleaned but also will call at vauxhall to see what they say as my car hesitates on ...
