Title: LPG - conversion from mixer to sequencial - is it worth?
Post by: Johnny English on 17 November 2011, 22:06:07
I have an old style Miggy with an old style gas equipment maybe a first generation of Lovato from Italy. Unfortunately in gas mode it is not enough strong when idling and I often feel as if she didn't get fuel and wanted to shut down. For example if I'm steering to the max to any direction or aircon is starting...Actual idle of mig is 600-650 rpm I guess it must be good. Or should I get it increase in LPG mode? Or should I get her a conversion from mixer to sequencial ?  Could you propose me anything? Many thanks  .       Laszlo

A mixer system is far from ideal on any Omega. But, if it's running properly then I wouldn't worry about doing anything.

I say that because I assume that the "MOT" regulations aren't as strict over there because a mixer system probably wouldn't pass an MOT over here

If you thinking about sequential conversion maybe this will be interesting to you:
http://autogas-lpg.co.uk/conversion-kit/33-lpg-autogas-conversion-injection-kit-esgi-ii-6cylinder.html

http://autogas-lpg.co.uk/conversion-kit/38-s.html

Both kits includes LPG controller with complete wiring and sensors, reducer and 2x 3 cylinder injector rail with nozzles and manifold nozzles. So the only thing you need is LPG pipes. These kits are really cheap, not sure about quality, anyway tried to google and have found nothing bed about them.

or you can try to find on ebay second hand kit. I got my from ebay for £120 including Stako gas tank and BRC Sequent front end. I was very lucky because it looks like everything is in very good condition.

I wouldn't recommend that company... They do not get very good reviews for customer service ::) In fact, worse reviews than the recent one on here about mytyres :-X ::)

We do, however, have an approved supplier who will supply a proven kit at a very reasonable price ;) I'm sure he'll ship to Hungary

My Mig gonna go to MOT april of next year, will it strict or not I can't decide but one staff I know well, namely here prohibited to do lpg conversion without legal permit and certified garage background. The emission datas mustn't be worse than original volumes published by manufacturer. If I had a sequencial kit it wouldn't be enough because I'm not a certified expert who is permitted to install it... :( :( :(  Well, you do it though, you use your car untill the next MOT time is came only, where Mig won't be passed as you can't show any official document about the conversion.  :-\ :-\ :-\  OK guys,  I'll try to arrange a time of prevoius supervising for a sequencial conversion...many thanks for advices, really really appreciate you! Thanks!
