Here I am sat in the rain awaiting greenflag Mahoosive misfires , no power at all, can't get above 20mph ..... 0300, 0300.  0303.  0305. Coil pack ?  

[tunnie]

Codes match 1-3-5 bank, could well be 

[TheBoy]

On petrol as well?

[Entwood]

Yup, first thing I checked.  Light misfire at about 1200 rpm no load, revs freely to red line. Put any load on and mahoosive misfire throughout range. EML initially flashes then comes on steady. Codes as above

[TheBoy]

pulled out the cp yet? oily?

[Entwood]

Now home, cold wet and miserable .. its persisting down   Had no tools to pull the CP ... that will be done first thing in the morning .... off to find the "how to" on CP removal - after I've had a coffee to warm up !!

No sign of any oil leakage from the cam covers, and no sign of water dripping off the scuttle - as best I could see before it got too dark

[TheBoy]

1/3/5 dead easy. Fuel lines off, then you have full access.

[TheBoy]

To remove a CP,
unplug loom
undo 2 bolts
using 2 bolts from plenum, screw these into the brass inserts in the bolt holes in cp, about 3 or 4 turns
use these bolts to help lift cp out.

IIRC you just need a couple of M8/M10  bolts to screw into the brass inserts  ........ and use them to pull it out

but only after removing a few LPG bits that just sit in the way !!  (seriously, thanks   saves me looking it up )

Reckon you may need to pull plenum off to get to fuel lines - can't remember 

I can get to mine (1/3/5) without touching LPG, my 2/4/6, I have to undo one bank of injectors. But obviously all LPG installs vary

[TheBoy]

Check the B1 Long term trims before clearing any codes - wonder if a lamda has caused it to go way off

Not a help here, but its something to consider on the V6 install. On the 2.2, injectors only get in the way of a cam cover change

Limited room means there is no perfect positioning. I actually like the Bullet's positioning, but it does foul the deadening on the bonnet.

[Entwood]

Position of my injectors probably gets in the way at a guess, but we'll find out in the morning
