Ok, I'll take a stab in the dark and say: Plug leads are causing all the miss firing and backfiring, gas is very suseptible(sp) to bad spark. Also if it's cutting out when he decelerates and cruises to a stop, does he have a snorkel and which way is it pointing? if its towards the front then turn it around and see if that makes a difference. Too much air and not enough gas it will not burn.

just spoke to him hes got the 4.5L petrol
now dosent have a snorkel at all , he said as soon as the clutch gose in it cuts out
as for the spark leads for his toyota are they< iv never looked under his bonnet so i dont know what arangment he has > just for replacing purpuse
thanx guys been very helpfull here
the gas was fitted by a licenced joint in gippsland somwhere between dandy and tralgon
thats why im an apprentice boiler maker and not some office dude
if it spelled close i dont care
