Is it getting VERY hot?


Move likely and air leak if you removed plenum/breather etc.

Ideally LPG vapouriser should be fed from the main coolant hose going to single spigot of HBV.........said hose should be cut then connect the "flow" pipe to vapouriser from engine side of coolant hose and "return" pipe from vapouriser to hose going to HBV.
Think that`s right :-/ if not someone will no doubt correct me ::)
