afternoon all
Having had a major engine rehaul done and tune up, I 've just had the LPG system serviced as it was misfiring on kickdown and stalling at lights etc.
Problem I need help with is, my LPG garage couldn't recalibrate the LPG software due to the age of the system.. I have yet to collect the car, but if its still not running right, what can I do?
details on the actuator thing is:-
OMVL DREAM XXI-G Italy - 18/05
K901716
67R-010099 - class 1.2A s/n xxxxxx566
anyone been here before?
thanks for looking.

Re: system needs re calibrating but garage hasn't got the s/
What car is this? Edit at 13:55, reading your other threads this is on your 1985 Merc230E? Still, from your other posts can't tell if you have an OMVL Dream C or Dream N system, so the rest of my post doesn't need editing...
Can you tell us what writing is on the LPG ECU (might be a yellow sticker on your ECU)?
Since your system year is 2005 (and will have been fitted around that time) you may need to rebuild/replace injectors or reducer now (and this would make calibration necessary by default) - But calibration alone may not cure the problems.
Where in North England are you? I'm an installer in South Elmsall (between Doncaster, Pontefract, Wakefield, Barnsley). I can sort it for sure!

Re: system needs re calibrating but garage hasn't got the s/
many thanks for the comments.
my ecu just says 'dream XXI Injection System C'
i'll try and find an earlier version of the software from somewhere.
yhe lpg system fuse. I havent seen that. I'll disconnect cables from ecu at weekend to try n find it.
i have both connectors to try. the usb from laptop connector from the ecu is 8 pin female. but as its been there for 11 years, maybe thats dirty and not connecting?
thanks again.

Many thanks Gilbert, I'll d/lad the software, reconnect the fuse and cables and give it another go tomorrow and let you know how I do.
