Title: Updates on LPG  for V6 engins
Post by: mhwest on 11 March 2007, 01:26:10

Looking for information on the latest LPG multi valve system, noted that there is not a lot of room for gear under bonnet  :-/

Depends what info you are after.

You want sequential gas injection.

There is room - a bit tight but it will go in

Yes the system I was going to use is Bigas sequential gas Injection this was removed from Rover 820i, which I installed my self.
This system is less than one year old from new, but is only for 4 cylinders.

It looks if I need another ECU for 6 and Injectors not sure on evaporator type mine may be too small could be double type.
As you have stated a bit of a tight fit hope this helps

I would sell it to a 4 cylinder owner and buy a new front end including vapouriser, I know bits about Romano and I am helping James with a OMVL system - both have their own faults.

There are two ways of getting gas into the V6 either nozzles on the manifold with pipes tucked under the plenum - seen with OMVL installs and ROmano use nozzles fitted to the plenum

yep mine was nozzles on manifold which was easy to remove and replace after drill & tap (that was the other) now the plenum sounds more attractive but is it , plenty of information on the other system but not the Romano which one would you suggest .

At the moment I am ready so send off for some gear for Cam belt renewal gear belt & water pump, if no locking kit is available will attempt to make some plates to lock into cog teeth, looks if I will be busy for a week will have to get a crate of cans.
