    Thank you Green light

    I started up the Rangie this morning to drive down the road to fill up with LPG, no issues , drove out of the driveway and round the corner and all of the sudden the Rangie died no warning , nothing , could not start up again.

    Well...... tried to start it up aq few times, engine was cranking but nothing ,checked Fuel Gauge and Petrol tank was full and LPG tank still had some gas left.

    Pouring Rain , had to get out and push the car to the side of the road with a few cars banked up behind and no-one keen to get out to help push , well that's understandable..... and why would they....

    Anyhow once car was on the side of the Road out of the way of traffic , I called Karl ( Green Light ) , he suggested starting it up on Gas , still nothing engine was cranking but wouldn't start

    pretty soon Karl had Turned up , it just so happens the Ignition Module had water inside where it sits next to the LPG converted under the bonnet...


    Soon Karl had it open and he sent me back home to grab the hairdryer and a long extn lead , we attached Extn lead plugged into one of the neighbors 240v outlets with hairdryer and dried up all water and moisture out of it ,


    Karl had the car staring in no time.


    so I Just wanted to say


    Thank you karl and Liz for coming down and assisting me to start the Rangie back up , I really appreciate it.

    Well done, Karl.

    I guess there is a water leak from the converter and the module is about to be relocated?

    I thought you already did!

    Gorgeous George ... grew his hair out so it was long, could be curled and pinned back with gold-plated bobby pins, and dyed it platinum blond.

    Funnily enough , one of my plans was to come back home , pack the Hair dryer and inverter and go back, however I couldn't find the damn Inverter
