So almost 2 years later, seems I finally got this sorted. I bought a replacement transfer case but hadn't got around to swapping it in. I had, in the mean time, read elsewhere that it might be the...

Got a new battery fitted today under warranty and shift is back to normal. Phew!

Thanks for the advice guys.

Cheers, the battery is dead - ie after half an hour running, turn the car off and there's not even power to display the odometer. I actually bought this one from Battery World in Coffs Harbour on a...

Hi all,

A bit of a weird question from me, here's the scenario: I left my 4.8 auto with the valet at the airport as I had a week long trip overseas. when I picked the car up, the valet advised...

Actually not heard of this until you mentioned it (outside smokers circles, anyway). To the right In the second picture I posted is the cutoff solenoid with a filter underneath. The filter inside is...

Well here's a couple of images of the inside of mine... The large diaphragm had a puncture in amongst the muck. The regulator/reducer functions with two chambers with the large and small diaphragms....

Hi guys, I can report that the issue with mine is resolved through much trial and error. Big thanks to Robo for his advice during the process.

1. I pulled the reducer/regulator out - my system is...

Thanks mate,

I've got a couple of manuals but none really show the heater hoses - the flow diagram for the cooling system shows that the inlet for the heater comes from the thermostat housing and...

Um, so I got my regulator back so started putting the car back together. Got 15L of Nulon coolant etc. I mentioned earlier that I joined the hoses together - I actually took the outlet hose out and...

Hey Robo,

I'm keen to know how you get on. I've got a Landi Renzo SE 81 on my GU and have been having an issue where it will not stay running below 1000 RPM. Take it above that and it runs as...

Yeah, I think I'll leave it and do the lot when the regulator goes back in on the weekend. I hadn't actually managed to get anything into it yet - I filled the overflow tank to max but couldn't get...

Tah guys, I didn't have the heater on but I did have the reservoir bottle open. Will give it another go with the heater on.
Mark, I have no idea what the coolant in the car is as it was in there...

Hi guys,

I've had to remove my LPG regulator to get it repaired and lost a fair bit of coolant in the process. I've joined the two hoses from the regulator together (they are spliced into the...

Hi mate, Dencos site is here

If it's a complete kit with the intercooler, I'd go for it at that price but my experience with Denco was positive and I've not spoken with anyone else who's had one...

Hi Gordy,

My old GU had this issue in the rear axle. I bought new seals and bearings from CBC - not crap. I decided to have a go myself but ended up having to take the axles to a mechanic to press...

Hi Jwints,

I've had a GU TD42 which I put a Denco kit and 2.5" exhaust on that I got from 4WD Systems in SA and a GQ TD42 with auto trans that had a Turbo Glide kit installed. Both were vast...

I rang LPGAS1 today and got some pointers as to who I can talk to that might be familiar with this system. None are anywhere near me unfortunately - things start getting expensive when it's an $80...

Hi Kallen,

Thanks for the response - now that you mention it, I have had the odd whiff of gas through the vents in the cabin if the A/C wasn't on recirculate. The LPG system was fitted in VIC and...

So I filled it with Gas and switched it over. It stalled pulling out of the servo.. I gave it a few more chances and every time I slowed for a corner or intersection, it'd die. I'd need to turn the...

Cleaned the MAF and changed the air filter. Huge difference running on petrol. Still missing a little bit at idle but the feeling like it's going to stall is gone. Haven't had gas in it for a couple...

Hi mate,

I'm assuming you'll be support the box with a trolley jack while you unbolt and then slide it backwards to release the input shaft and get the housing out from around the clutch. Then...

Thanks Threedogs - it's a 4.8 petrol/LPG, I didn't think they used EGR?? Will certainly look at blocking it if it'll help anything. I've got all the filters but I'm trying to get a new set of plugs....

I've since gone over to the petrol "dark side" but I had a GU 4.2 diesel with a Denco kit on it and always took it to West End Diesel at Wetherill park and had nothing but excellent service and great...

Hey mate - are you doing the clutch yourself? I bought the Safari Clutch for my GU TD42 and had a go in the garage. I found after unbolting drive shafts, bell housings etc and getting the box back...

Hi mate,

It's been a few years but I found guages that were fairly shallow and put them in the flat section beside my gear stick. I think only TI's and some ST Manuals had this but there's one for...
