    lpg on diesel

    ahh clever. :) and that would be better to, as its common sense tha tthe closer to the cylinder it is introduced, the better. due to mixing nicely with the air and not "settling"

    Really odd failure to start help needed

    a very similar thing happened on our old td5 we used to have, at first we thought it was heat related as if we parked in the shade it would start, this was coincidence. however we found out it was the motor itself, there was 1 particular place where the contacts didnt work, so it wouldnt spin...

    lpg on diesel
