Hi. I have question about LPG. Actually i got problem with LPG on my girlfriends car. If I am driving on LPG car sometimes does misfire. when I was changing LPG filter I have noticed little amount of liquid in it, and now coolant slowly disappears somewhere. Is it possible that this is cosed because of faulty Vaporizer? On petrol car runs perfectly. Thanks in advance.

Sounds like unrelated issues.
The misfire is either HT (spark) related because LPG requires a "stronger" spark to ignite or a setup issue.
The thick, treacle like liquid is called "Heavy Ends" and is normal, although if the system is set up correctly these should (mostly) burn off on a long drive.
The coolant leak... Well, that could potentially be down to a perforation in the vaporiser but I'd be looking for more obvious leaks first.
This is all based on the assumption it's a properly installed, sequential system. What car, engine size and kit is it?

Car is Citroen C2 ;D 1.1l. It has OMVL Dream XXI system instaled, don't ask why ;D I bought this car really cheap, and i have no idea why someone put LPG to 1.1 ??? Anyway i think i have find my problem, today when it misfired again i have noticed that all leds on LPG switch goes off, so that means there is something wrong with LPG electrics or LPG ecu. This system was fitted in LPGA approved garage but it looks terrible. I will not be surprised if I'll find lose connection or broken wire. It seems i will spend all weekend in garage again :-\
