All the time, at idle, or only under WOT?

Does seem odd considering the recent checks.

It was under wot at the essex meet. Which is where the problem first arose I believe.

Seems to be getting progressively intermittently worse. No matter what's done to ignition system. 246 bank was the problem last I heard...?

Actually, this started once it was lpg'd didn't it?

Wonder if the injector wiring is iffy? Only reason I drove it was to test the kit, and it played up then and got worse since.

Or is it my memory misfiring as well?  :-/

Yeah, did start after the LPG went on. Shouldn't think it's the wiring... It took him long enough! ::) ;D But not rerally seen anything that points towards the LPG. Really needs to pull the fuse on the lpg or disconnect the injectors while it's got this miss to rule it out though :-? :-?

It's such a shame though because that kit runs perfectly on mine (and yours) so we know we've finally found the combination that works ::) Although I'm seriously considering trying a timing processor to see if there is any further improvements to be made ::)

Unless there's a very slightly trapped pipe less severe than I had. Although i'm sure he's narrowed it down to gas only or petrol or whatever.

Yep, and he can then run on Petrol for a while to see if there's any change.

Is the miss moving about or in 1 cylinder/bank? I wonder if the vapour hose is kinking when it gets warm and restricting flow? :-/ :-/

Still... Not a lot of point in us guessing randomly ::) ::) Reckon there must be a curry in my near future ::) ;D
