This morning on switching to LPG the car coughed and stuttered as though it was missing, on arrival had al ook under bonnet and all the LPG pipes were coated in white, fearing the worst I closed the bonnet (actually had to get moving) drove home tonight, it coughed once or twice then drove normally, on arrival opened bonnet and not a drop of frost anywhere.
thats the same thats happening on our lpg. same system. coughs & barks like a good un 1st thing in the morning.

Since following the advice on letting it warm up to operating temp, I have had no problems at all :) :)

Iirc mine is set to swith to gas after 40 seconds is passed, provided a certain temp. is reached. For the life of me cant remember exactly what though... 40c coolant temp...?
My Bullet is set for the following conditions to be true before switching:
Coolant 20C
Running for 10s

TBE is set for:
Coolant 30C
Running 20s
Revs must have exceeded 1000 rpm since starting (so I can leave it idling on the drive in the winter - the bullet has a habit of stalling when I'm ironing my shirt ;D)
