ok, the ltd has been running great on lpg,
But recently she fried a fuel pump because i was too cheep to keep petrol in the tank,
Well, that was an expensive lesson

Anyways, replaced the pump, and all was sweet,
But now its having a problem when the engine is warm it looses power?
It becomes hard to drive at low revs and makes terrible noises...
Feels like it could be flooding?
Thing is it runs perfect, if not better on lpg?

I really have no idea, im not used to all these self tuning things...

i have a NF 5lt that is dual fuel but it starts on petrol then swaps to gas via computer they fitted, so i have to keep petrol in tank, but, maybe your injectors are partially blocked from lack of use i was told it was important to run a tank of petrol through sometimes to stop them foulling up - good luck and keep them LWB henry's coming :D
