Noticed today mine flicking between gas and petrol. Also from cold this morning mine took 6 miles of 60 mph cruising to flick to gas. Have I missed something on the set up? Or could it be something to do with the ISA?

It's the adaptions gathering data for the petrol map.

OUCH ..   Is that a tank out job to rectify  

[doz]

I might have to man handle it about but think I can sort without drastic actions. Guy seemed happy with everything else

Not too bad then ... still a pain though ... good luck with it ..

Bit off topic but the aeb lpg kits seem to use the k bus to look at long and short term fuel trims
thus keeping the lpg ecu in sync over time with the petrol ecu
So less recalibrating over time
cant comment on stag as i am not familiar with it

Didn't you get the whole lot supplied by Tinley?

Oh... Hang on... Didn't you try saving a few quid and re-using an old frame you had?

[doz]

Yea. Frame is ok. However the straps need to be wider once you get to a certain size and apparently I need three. I've ordered them in fact I've gone for over kill and have got 50mm straps because they have a better buckle system. Hopefully it won't be to much issue to fit. Still at least I haven't paid out on the test yet.

Only viable on OBDII cars - 2.2, 2.6 and 3.2

What size tank?

Good news that you first conversion virtually passed first attempt

[doz]

90 litre.

90 litre. 

Don't think I've seen an Omega with 3 straps, inc 100l tanks

Yeah good going Doz.

If you read COP11 it comes down to the width of the bands. Technically speaking 30mm bands you only need 2. Any narrower and you need 3. I think this guy is being a bit of a stickler but he looked under the bonnet and was happy with what he saw. When I go back I'll print off a copy of the COP11 and if he tries to pick it up again on anything daft I'll wave it under his nose. Thing is I bet if I go some where else they'll just pick it up on something else. I guess it's a bit like MOt's you never know what the testers like. Where I go for them everybody complains the MOT guy is a right B'stard but I get on really well with him.
