it was on a mistu pajero.
kept taking it back to the installers to get it repaired,
they tell us its fine now
and its still fuked up when we're driving it
took it back and they took us for a drive in our car and nothing seems to happen when they drove it
so we got rid of it entirely.
I really don’t think you have any mechanical engine faults.
when running on LPG the Fuel Injector system is disabled so it won’t be that. Pretty much all you getting from the Honda system is Ignition. It appears to me the LPG power valve/Solenoid or control unit for LPG is faulty/ misadjusted or not setup correctly. so the Honda ECU will see a rich fuel mixture and freak out because it cannot resolve the issue by changing the fuel mixture itself.
what is ment to happen if you have this particular setup is, a box that will control the LPG power valve will monitor the O2 sensor and then adjust the LPG mixture accordingly. so you either have a bad LPG control unit, bad power valve solenoid, bad O2 sensor or bad setup/wirning.
Your car could have a non self adjustable power valve, it’s a valve you tune by hand and set it as a one off. ( this is more of the old skool setup for carby cars )
what you should do is follow the gas tube from the throttle body back to the gas converter and in between is a valve and it should have a solenoid and wires coming off it. that itself could be the issue. it controls your LPG mixture. sounds like its running to rich.
Thanks for that ECU-MAN. I really appreciate your input. By the looks of it, you may be a mechanic .... somewehre in Melbourne ?
I will follow your advice. If I have any problems finding that solenoid I have to go to the guys who installed the system, though I think they were just trying to wash their hands when I paid $170 for the car service and they still told me to go to Honda. I should go to another one, probably .....
By the way, 2 days ago I mixed with the petrol with one of those Total Fuel System Cleaner bottles from Nulon and let me tell you, I am very close to swear by it. The car is so much better you wouldn't believe. I will drive it until the tank is empty (another 3-4 days) and will go from there. I still can't get passed that bottle, such a difference it made !!!!! I'm sure it cleaned something that was clogged. your thoughts, please.
