| the fuel injectors on a series 2 vn commodore are the same for ANY Electronic Fuel Injection(EFI) car, they squirt portions of air and fuel mixture into the pistons, otherwise just google it :D |

A full tank of Premium Unleaded (without any Ethanol), half a litre of metho, and a double dose of injector cleaner. Run the car on that for a couple of days...
If that doesn't manage to get the old girl straightened out then take the injectors off and have them ultrasonically cleaned.
THEN if after all of that you still find it a bit rough, it's time to replace them. |

Also, when your car is on LPG (mine is) It's always good to run it on a full tank of petrol every 4-5 gas refills...otherwise when you change it over it handles like **** and aint too good for the car...
But yes, Mouce's idea will clean it up, just member to fuel run it every while. |

Aussie- is this primarily to do with seal lubrication? I've heard that LPG can cause things to dry out and perish?
I don't run LPG- nor know much about it- so just curious to learn more ;) |

Depends who you get it done with, if its done correctly gas works fine....also if you want to make ur car gas only, gotta change pistons and a load of other things. And Yeah seal lubrication is a factor in gas, but you only will really notice it after a long time....but its an easy thing to fix just by running 1 tank of petrol lol.
My car is fine on gas, I haven't had any problems at all with it. It was already converted when I got it however. |
