check the wiring on both solenoids,1 in engine bay,1 on the tank,should have two wires each.then get some one to switch the gas,listen for a clicksound-tank first,then the engine bay.if both click you have gas to converter,may start.if not can be converter problem-internal or the runs a dead man switch which runs gas when the ignition is on-this has a fuse-check wiring is all on. |

i always found the change-over on the factory systems to operate a bit strangely
i think the engine has to switched off, then press the button to change, then start, is that how your doing it? |

sounds like corrossion or the diaphram is split,can get repair kits or replace converter,is there a gas place near you for repairs.there are 4-6 gas installers in wollongong,sell kits and converters,will repair it. |

| If it's factory gas ... I guess giving Boral a call in Arndell Park Sydney your best bet. Much cheaper than going to Ford |
