you looked different back then, Ferret :-)Originally Posted by the ferret
Shave 50 thou off the head, tripple carbs, lumpy cam, port 'n pollish, lighten flywheel, sports coil the list goes on, but this is a start,
My "59" Zephyr had 70 off the head, extractors, 4 su's, port'n pollish, 4 sp Riley bag and solid clutch plate, 70mph in 2nd, blew the tops out of 2 pistons at 160mph.
Back to the drawing board lol.
EVEN had VALVE radio LOL.
if carby and on gas, apparently extended rotor buttons make a difference. I run petrol only but have just bought one, yet to fit it
oh, yeah, make sure tyre pressures are right, and if you are carrying around a lot of stuff, make sure you only keep what you need, esp if heavy.
Oh but mate........... I've been married to her for over 40 years, she still looks the same and I wouldn't swap her fer Quids.
Cheers, the ferret.
Do petrol patrols suffer from blocked injectors as mine was sitting around for a year before I got it runs very well on LPG by seems slugish on petrol in the low to midrange
John
Yes petrols can suffer from blocked injectors especially dual fuel cars. Forget the injector flushes you put through the fuel tank, if you want the injectors properly cleaned you will to remove them for an ultrasonic clean.
Check closely all the intake ducting between the airflow meter and the intake manifold, if there are any air leaks you mixtures will be wrong and it won't run properly.
Coolant temperature sensors and exhaust gas oxygen sensors on EFI Patrols can go out of calibration over time and cause poor running without logging fault codes, something else to keep in mind.

Hi Ynot I notice my temp guage only reads just of cold but the motor seams warm will have to check temp guage sensor and the efi sensor if there are two of them'
might also have to check the oxygen sensor as the have tapped into it for the lpg
