Welcome

We have 4 of them

what’s the problem they are great

(admittedly 2 of them thier life is under discussion)

This is tells us about you and show us you car, type of thread. you may have to post your problem in a better section. Disco or V8 related.

All I would say is stick with it. Do you run LPG a lot?
We had a P38 that used to run LPG and it would start getting a bit cranky if not run on petrol.
Run a tank of petrol only, and see how it goes. Then work from there.

Other than that enjoy

Hi and welcome

Rover V8s have constant niggles, apart from the catastrophic ones in between. Constant maintenance.

Perhaps your LPG unit is bit tired. The older ones are not as good as the more modern type

Any chance of some pics? I like the old discos
