Lpg
More newbie technical problems here, hopefully you guys can help me,, filled my lpg tank yesterday ( 60 litres) yet after only 20 miles I've had to revert back to petrol as it started chugging and a red light on the switch appeared. Any suggestions please as to what I could have done wrong,, teething problems I know but Beryl is causing me concern
Re: Lpg
It would be advisable to take it to an LPG fitter for a leak test, you don't mess with LPG or any other GAS for that matter.
Good Luck.

Re: Lpg
As per rita's post, you'll need to take to an LPG fitter for testing. They'll do a pressure test to check for leaks. If it's loosing that much so quickly maybe you can smell the gas leaking?
Hopefully nothing serious.

Re: Lpg
A similar scenario to a new fit on my Toyota Estima many years ago ..
Apparently the LPG 'gauges' float also acts as a gas cut off valve .. the float's rod at got twisted out of place when being fitted into the tank ..

Thanks everyone,, after a chat with Ian Taylor who supplied Beryl, and a nice blast (?) down the motorway she's running fine off gas and with use there's every chance of the gauge rectifying itself

You could try a blast up a farm track road.
