V8 sluggish until LPG kicks in

Anyone got any ideas?

53 disco V8 automatic with 100k

Slow for first 5 mins and there is a definite improvement in performance when lpg kicks in after 5 mins. Better when not cold or damp

Bearing in mind that ALL the engine management that is used on petrol is used on LPG, so I'd straight away look at the fuel pump, and maybe the built-in filter in the pump has got a problem.

Virtually the only item that isn't common is the petrol pump.

What a totally ****e ****e ****e day I have had

Car 10 mins from home over heats... AA did a pressure and a liquid test and there is CO2 in coolant, so confirm it is Head Gaskets.

Do not have the cash, will, or energy to get this fixed

Car has only done 99, 800 miles, full leather, FSH, LPG prins

Going to sell

Won't sell for much with head gasket(s) gone, better get it sorted out.

Where are you based?

Near Banbury

I've got to go to Banbury on a site visit for Chiltern Railways, if you're around during the day, I could pop in. PM me a contact number if that sounds a possible.
