Thread: LPG gremlins...

If it is a new tank the filter may be blocked..

New tank of fuel, but the system was installed a year and a half ago.

LPG runs filters?

filter in the solenoid on the tank?

that could be it.

The filler is in the TOP of the bumper. When I bought the car it had no cap and the check valve in the filler leaks (probably dust) so it bleeds everything between the filler and the tank.

If the previous owner ran it like this for a while the tank might be full of guff

There should be a 1 way valve in the tank so it shouldnt rely on the filler line holding pressure. The are mesh filters in the lockoffs so if the tank has internal rust it could block the inlet.

This happened on my Ser3.
Turned out to be faulty wiring on the LPG cut-off switch.(the one that senses the engine is running via ignition pulse)
The led on the switch wasnt lighting to show the switch was open.
Goodluck

see if the LED lights when you crank the engine..

Filter should be on the soleniod on the vapouriser

Mine has a little box under the dash near the fuses that I think is meant to start on petrol and switch to gas over Idle speed. All the little lights switch as expected.

I'll pull my meter out and start hunting in the morning.

need to drive to Melbourne tomorrow, not doing that on a 30lt petrol tank...
