    Misfire under load - getting worse - help !!

    LPG is the Tartarini system (vapouriser type - not direct injection). Yes, it does misfire on LPG but I think this could be due to the plugs being sooted-up. Unfortunately I can't get hold of a scope so I will try to describe the typical needle movements on the multimeter: (in approximate...

    Misfire under load - getting worse - help !!

    Right, as eightinavee said - time for some proper diagnostic work. I am working with two multimeters - an accurate digital one and a less accurate analogue one. I have checked both oxygen sensors. The readings are similar. When running on petrol the readings are 'all over the place' but...

    Misfire under load - getting worse - help !!

    My 1994 Disco 3.9 (dual fuel) has a misfire, particularly under load. Change down a gear and is seems much better. The misfire occurs on both LPG and petrol, although it is much more noticeable on LPG. The tick-over is slightly lumpy. It feels "across the range" as opposed to a single...
