There should be an option in the software that this doesn't need resetting every time it runs out of gas :-\

tried it with the pipe off the vapourisor(outlet) when it switchs over, nowt comes out at all.  ???

Have you checked that the solenoids are getting switched? Just because you can hear a click doesn't mean that both are getting a live trigger ;) The fact you have nothing coming through, I would check the front one first (as I expect it's the rear solenoid you can hear clicking).

Oh, and apologies for not replying sooner... I forgot all about this thread :-[

Good gas pressure at vapouriser inlet?

(SAFETY - be desperately careful you can get severe burns from the the gas - it will be that cold under pressure)

They are the injectors (although they are solenoids).

The solenoids Cripple is on about are the solenoids on the valve at tank, and at vapouriser.  Actually, wonder if one has a resettable switch.....

When the RIS kit (eg this one) throws a critical error, the light on the gas switch will flash and it will not run on gas whatever you do, until you log into the software and clear the code.

So no, LD, running out of gas shouldn´t log this error, I agree - but given the way the RIS - RIS/N Kits work, the codes are the very first thing to check if it´won´t run on gas

So you've been into the lpg ecu and reset the code James was talking about and, presumably, changed a setting to stop it happening again...?

its got me bamboozled tbh, it will switch over, injectors cut in, engine dies. checked front solenoid for operation & thats ok. checked the feed to sol on tank & thats ok, without having ten foot arms i cant tell if the tank sol is working on switchover. as im not getting gas down to the front im guessing the tank sol is u/s.

On mine it's possible to hear the tank solenoid click when gas cuts in. ...?

That's not to say yours will too, but just a thought.
