Hi,

I'm a the proud (ish) owner of an 89 3 door 3.5 Disco running SU carbs and an LPG conversion. I'm after some advice. Thle car starts and runs ok on LPG, it does backfire a little but looking at the state of the HT leads, that's no suprise! It won't however run on petrol, it just coughs and farts, it's only done 93k which I beleive to be true and as I say is pretty good on LPG.

While I'm here what are your thoughts on replacement Leads and Plugs?

Cheers,


Rob

Crispywombat:
Thing is it runs great on LPG, just not on petrol, I was wondering if it was a fuel filter or the fuel pump....

Skibum346:
Could be porous fuel line somewhere letting air in...

Crispywombat:
I've been out in it today, running on petrol ok up to about 40 ish when it just seems to run out of power, I know the leads and plugs need a change but it does seem to be fuel starvation...not sure how though. I'll take a look at the fuel lines when this snow settles down a bit!
