Overheating when Air-con pressed.... 2.2 petrol

Hello all,
Everytime i put on air-con, The temp goes past 100.c and beyond!!  I am aware with having LPG fitted the temp does raise a bit, But this is miles up what im used to. Im going to have the Thermostat removed and this will hopefully help it (with any luck) Also has anyone had simmilar probs with their own Lpg Omega??  As i use the car for work and is driving me nuts!  Cheers tallboyandy23

How is your vapourisor plumbed in re coolent? On mine it feeds and returns too/ before the heater by pass valve. So engine coolent out to vapourisor, then Vap to hbv. I have no change in engine temp whatso ever plumbed in that fashion. Sounds like your hbv is interfering with the coolent flow, possibly. However there are more experienced than me on here esp with lpg. Only just finished my install. No doubt they will be along soon. :-)

Have you checked that the AC condenser cooling fan is coming on when the AC is switched on?
