1.9DG Gas settings
Posted: 20 Dec 2005, 08:51
Hi,
Having a few problems getting the gas to run smoothly, done about 1000 miles since the conversion, but there are still a couple of teething problems.
Does anyone else with a 1.9DG know roughly what settings they are running, i.e. 5 1/4 turns from closed on the gas level etc.
The van runs fine on motorway traffic, a little slower than petrol, however it has trouble holding speed when you need to decellerate and then accellerate again, which makes overtaking lorries interesting.
The van also has trouble starting up, the engine turns over great on gas, but the van can't pull away. I thought I was running lean at first but I'm only getting 180-230km to a tank.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
