LPG Problems

Radlam · Mar 23, 2006

Hi guys,

Just picked up my Disco last night, its a 1998 3.9v8 5dr with LPG conversion.

I filled the LPG up last night and once I had left the forecourt on petrol and then proceeded to switch to Gas. I managed to drive about 5 miles until the car just cut out and wouldnt restart, on gas or petrol!

The little switch box has a Lamda check thing and the lights on that were randomly flashing whilst I was driving!

The only thing up with the car is it has a cracked airbox (new one ordered) could this be the cause of it cutting out? I am too scared to switch it to Gas again until I know what the problem is as I dont want to do any damage to the engine or system.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I dont this it has been used an aweful lot as the previous owner did not live near any filling stations. Could it just require a service?
