The gauges are universally cheap and nasty, and shouldn't really be relied upon.  I work on the principle that I get 240 miles from my 66l if I've been on country roads, 300m if been on a good motorway run, 320m if she's been using it for work.



Is that on a 3ltr or 3.2 ?

3.0l, 3.2l is noticeably less, but I rarely get to drive it...

Just a quick update on this issue. Been driving the car with it switching between gas and petrol for some time. Had to do a long journey the other day with the car in petrol. Horrible seeing the petrol guage dropping like a stone. I've checked all the electrical connections before with no improvement. I pushed them all together again. I also tapped the top of the gas pressure guage..........Car has been running in gas faultlessly for the last month. Guess the guage must have been sticking? Anyway, glad I haven't spent a fortune to resolve this. Glad I didn't replace the injectors as advised by Profess Gas! :)
It's  a coincidence... The gauge is nothing other than a very approximate idea of what is in there. The gas switching is based on several factors, none of which are the gauge. Have you checked how the vaporiser is plumbed into the coolant?

Strange how it has been working so well ever since I pushed all the electrical connectors together and gave it a tap. I'll have a look at the vapouriser plumbing.

Sounds like it was a dodgy connection then... You did 2 different things at the same time ;)
