Best advice is to swap your Lousy Petrol Guzzling V8 for a nice reliable diesel

Think you maybe suffering a slight misconception. My diesel may not be quite as quick to the national speed limit. But two or three seconds is neither here nor there in the great plan of things. But it does use less fuel getting there and a lot less on reaching it.

Mozz

I have a 2000 model Vogue 4.6 with the Zavoli LPG on it.

I also have a Panasonic Toughbook with the LPG diagnostic software and cables on.

The software is very good at re-calibrating the LPG system, but it can also aid with fault finding (I haven't had any faults yet - touch wood!)

I find that the system needs re-calibrating every 6 months or so.....

Can I help?

martyuk · Apr 16, 2015

I've also got a 2001 Vogue 4.6 with Zavoli multipoint LPG.

Also have laptop and software for it. Have replaced some of my injectors and used the software to look into the calibration a couple of times too, so may be able to help.

We are all agog, Mozz.... wassup.

....aaaand I also have a Toughbook with software upon't to make sure the Rangey runs/suspends etc etc....

How many vehicle owners have to have a laptop to fix their flipping car - it's ridiculous.

I've just bought a Series 3 because of this....it's fitted with a Flux Collapsitor..

rewmer · Apr 16, 2015

I did have a self installed one, still got the manuals somewhere and maybe even a MAP.
