1.9DG/LPG IDLE ISSUES

I didn't know you could richen the petrol side tbh. Thought it was fixed jets!

Just adjustable on the idle, the main jets are fixed.
So am I right in thinking you've had the carb apart and cleaned it all, and fitted a rebuild kit?

I've had the Carb of and cleaned the jets as it wouldn't previously idle on petrol. . I also adjusted the throttle transfer jet and the other adjustment on a small Cam (cant remember it's name) following a video on the wiki. Put in new gaskets, Put it back on the van and had a couple or air leak issues at first which I managed to sort and got it running, driving and idling on petrol better than ever.

I then moved onto looking at why the engine was idling high on Lpg before the strip down and this is where I've got to after numerous other hiccups.

The van drives and performs really well on LPG but it's just idling real high.

Just to update my little tweek
I have now eliminated the lack of power/ stutter at 2100 rpm
It is pulling away nicely throughout the rev range.
Cheers chaps
