some lpg setups have their own computer to run them. this generally works off the oxy sensor. mine just has a screw to adjust the main mixture. the conclusion i came to was the computer must, when in closed loop alter the timing as well. hence the better economy.

I thought only worked with petrol?? Yeah, if you have a stepper motor on your vapour line it is controlled by an LPG ECU which uses the HEGO, TPS and RPM as its main inputs.

It's not a Ford, but our VZ Commodore SV6 gets 550km in the suburbs on gas all the time without fail. The tank is 90L liquid capacity or 75L usable LPG capacity.

It is a MY2005 VZ SV6 with the high output Alloytec 190 engine. It has the 5-speed "Active Select" automatic transmission. The LPG system is a Sequential Vapour Injection system (OMVL Dream XXI-N). The last tank of gas yielded us 561km on 72L. Regards, Dave
