Re: VAP needed,ideas anyone?

Is there definitely a fault with the vap though? Given the expansion of LPG as it changes to a gas, there wouldn't need to be much left to hiss for quite a while, especially if it's escaping through a joint that's just cracked open. Are there any problems with running?
i didnt think there was a ...

VAP needed,ideas anyone?

I drove my Van until the VAP would no longer rev the motor, then i went about letting the rest of the LPG out of the tank.
Well 40 minutes later the gas stopped coming out.
Is this an indication that my VAP (BRC at90) is useless on low LPG pressure?

What VAP could i replace the BRC with thats small ...

Re: Wanted: A "Dodgey" fitter




A better match for MS would be liquid propane injection. I'd say you've no chance of sourcing the specialist parts for that - propane tank with inboard fuel pump, LPI injectors. Do not be tempted to use petrol injectors, they will burst when you switch off (liquid propane has a huge coefficient ...

Re: Can you run Exclusively on LPG ?

I have a question for all you boffins out there.

If it runs exclusively on gas I can get a 50% discount, which when you consider the price will be nearly 4000 euros, is not to be sneezed at.

The fuel tank and other parts would need to be removed wouldn't it?
Ive done a bit of moving about ...

Re: Moving the tank

Yeah i understand that most of you guys are UK based , but the forum is a world one(even though it is a.com.uk)
I would suspect that the rules are the same in every smart country.
I guess my main concern is crossing the pipes over the transmission lines.
I have had a look under there and there is a ...

Re: Moving the tank

So i was thinking of making the filler line go from the rear left quarter panel across the dif housing area,just past the right hand side wheel and then into the tank.
The tank/VAP line would go from the tank exit near the right rear wheel ,up to the gearbox tunnel, across the tunnel and into the ...

Moving the tank

I got a 92 Hi'ace VAn.
It has a mixer on the carby, VAP is a BRC which is positioned under the car in the transmission tunnel on the passenger side.
The tank is in the far back of the van on the passenger side, the filler has been drilled through the lower rear panel on the passenger side.

I want ...

That will be a tough one to do as the problem can be there 1 minute and the next gone. Every time i feel the problem happen i can guarantee that the lambda sensor is reading .050 lean.its like some plugs dont fire and let a clean charge through to the sensor.Then when i feel like the engine is ...

All new plugs again and all new high quality wires/boots.The mechanic said the old ones were poor quality and will let you down.He also got into the brain box and said the box was set on "early start" or whatever he means. Anyway as i was skeptical the problem has now returned.I figured if i am ...
