I am almost ready to put my 1998 GU 4500 on the Market however I have a problem that I wish to fix before I do so.
If I run the Car on LPG for say 250 K’s and then switch to Petrol the Car will not accelerate and feels as though it is starving for Fuel. It would not pull the skin off a Custard. Very dangerous as I got caught whilst going through the Domain Tunnel in Melbourne towing my Jayco Dove and I was just able to pull out of the Tunnel . All I need to do is clean the MAF and disconnect the Battery for 30 minutes and the Car runs perfectly.
It is though the ECU is receiving Data from the MAF sensor when running on Gas and using those settings when switched to Petrol.
The Car runs perfectly when I reset the ECU and clean the MAF and I obtain the following Fuel Usuage:-
Petrol 16/18 L per 100 K’s
Gas 18 Litres per 100 K’s on a Trip and 22 Litres per 100 K’s around town and when towing my Jayco Dove
Does anybody have any clues
