Thread: D3 V8 Gas conversion?

Mike

Initially I had the MIL light come on when running on gas but since the initial tune up it very rarely comes on anymore. If it does come on the message associated is usually that bank 1 (or 2) is running too rich. I just reset the codes and all is well again. I also have the Flashlube kit fitted which came as part of the deal.

You're getting the exact same codes I used to get as well then, whenever the light came on it was either bank 1 or 2 running rich or lean. It would be fine on a long run, but shortly after getting stuck in traffic or trundling round town, the light would come on. It became such a pain in the butt that one day I sat there with my independant and had it running whilst plugged into the LR software, just so we could watch and monitor all the readouts. When you see the emissions figures on petrol as compared to gas, it's obvious why the light comes on, it's well out of parameters on gas and no amount of tuning could bring it in. I've got the photos of the readouts somewhere, will see if I can upload them so they're legible.

Much as I'd like the cheaper running costs, it's nice not to be driving around with the EML on....
