What LPG mixer on TB42 EFI?

Post by CRUSHU »

I have a impco 225 on my EFI TB42, and it seems to be causing an intake restriction.
I have a light that tells me when the air filter is blocked, and it comes on under load. I have a new filter in it, so the restriction is elsewhere.

I believe it to be the 225 and/or the adaptor to the throttlebody.
I have no snorkle, only the original air box.

What is everyone else running on their EFI TB42's?

that mixer is perfect for the 4.2. your airfilter sensor may be faulty.

I have the 225 mixer and the light has never come on. Probably a fault somewhere.

What size is the piping on yours, between the 225 and the T/B?

Mmmmm, I get the same light come on when the revs get up there :?

Mine is an OMVL R90/E on a TB42e

I also thought it was the air filter, but it still did it after a new filter.

Interested see what the 'fix' is ;)

I get the same light, but no gas :? :?

Just replaced the filter with an oil rechargable one.

Did that fix it? Oil soaked filters flow less than paper, so that is wierd.

Nup, still get the light. Might be something else. It doesn't do anything, atleast I don't think so. Getting 7.5 - 8 Km/L so what ever it is I'm leaving it alone :lol:

You appear to have the most economical petty GQ in Australia :? Best I get is about 6km/l on a highway run.

Gas going on, the week after next, 120L usable = $3500 that should give a fair range. :cool:

My LPG tank is 100 - 103l usable, depending on what petrol station I buy from (the local safeway servo under sells fuel, I can get 83litres in a commodore 80l tank, and 64 litres in a 63 litre commodore tank) while still being able to drive there. I can also get 104 litres of LPG in, but not anywhere else.

I am planning on getting a new one, to suit the 2" bodylift.
