[stratie]

Hi guys, to cut a long story short a mate of mine has got a monster 6ltr yankee motor home, any way he ran out of gas and cant get it to sart up on petrol.
Any help and info would be great, as its stuck on the road and we really need to get it home.
Thanks

Anyone ??

I'm not sure what's happened to stop it running on petrol, but one thing you could try is taking the fuses out of the lpg system.  They are usually between the battery and the control unit on the wiring harness.

Otherwise, try checking there is power getting to the fuel pump etc.

It seems odd though, running out of gas shouldn't stop it working all together, is he sure that's what's happened?  He would have needed it to run on petrol to get it started today, so it was working then.

yep it started up on petrol fine, then switched to gas, the gas ran out after 10 miles (he was on his way to fill up the gas tank  :lol: ) stoped the motor flicked over to petrol and..... nothing happend.
He's going to stay with it over night just incase some scally wrecks it.
But we really need to get it home, if it comes to it i'll have to drag it back with the landy, i just hope it will pull it?

Check it hasn't blow a fuse in the LPG system while the solenoids have been in the 'LPG' position if he's run out as in run out and stalled whilst on gas.

Wondering if its something to do with the cut out on the change over, if it uses a electric fuel pump, it may have not knocked it back in, if so  you may just need to get a feed to the pump, also would it have a reset control for the fuel pump, in case of accident, more andmore cars are having them and getting probs with them when they bump a high kerb etc

We've  got it back home now.....only just mind, the bl**dy thing is 30 foot long  :shock:  the L200 didn't want to pull it with out killing the clutch.
So a quick phone call to a mate and out comes the s11  :lol:
It was hard work for the old girl but she didn't mind  
will check the fuse and the pump tomorrow.
cheers guys
