Could have happened (somehow) when I went through and fixed up some air leaks near the MAF Sensor. It’s not like it’s on there super tight. I ran it on gas pretty much all day yesterday (other than warming it up and a small run on petrol). Probs did 110km+ without a single issue so I’d call it...

Talk about a simple fix. Reconnected that wire to what I assume is that solenoid and now she’s running.

Thank you. I’ll also take some photos and upload them. Maybe you’ll see something I missed.

Yep tried that too, I’ve had it up to 2500 (maybe even closer to 3000) and still nothing. I’ll have a look at the filter today crack the hose like you suggested. Pray for me and my disco 🪩

There should be enough to start it. Again in the OP I mentioned putting in 15l just to check. Might try a tough more today but that little bit should’ve started it

Also I still don’t know where my IAC is. In this diagram it says its here but in the second one it says it’s a throttle potentiometer so I don’t know what I’m looking for

Well that’s sort of why I thought. Just to be sure I removed that hose that caused the air leak and tried the gas but nothing happened and I definitely did wait for the temp to be stable before trying to switch to gas as I always do. The main reason I kept switching between the fuels was because...

Yeah as I said in the OP, I started up on petrol, as I always do but when switching to gas, it just died on me. And how do I check the filters in the vaporiser line while there’s lpg in the tank? It won’t start pissing out gas will it?

Oddly enough, I haven’t been able to start my LPG since fixing these issues. I’m sure it’s not related but it’s a testament to ‘fix something and something more expensive needs fixing’

I’ve recently changed spark plugs and leads. I have NGK plugs in. And the vehicle ran perfectly fine on gas just yesterday. The only difference is today I fixed up a few vacuum leaks. Since then, haven’t been able to start on LPG

Ok so I seem to have issue after issue which is killing me a bit but I’m guessing by the end of this I’ll be a fully fledged mechanic lol I went for a drive, started up on petrol as I always do, let it run for a bit then went to switch to LPG and the vehicle cut out completely. Pulled over...

Well that’s embarrassing 😅 definitely fixed the low/rough idle + stalling when starting issue. What a quick fix jesus. I also reconnected the other rubbers to get rid of any small gaps from the MAF. She sounds a lot better. I’m sure you’re all slapping your foreheads and shaking your heads...

I’ll take a look at that and let you know. Thank you for your help

P.S. I apologise for my naïveté when it comes to vehicles. It’s my first car, I’m only just learning a lot of this stuff. When I first bought it I didn’t even know about coolant let along all this stuff. So it might take me a little while to get on the same page.

You’d have to point out that missing vacuum hose. To me it all seems to be there. And I’ll definitely have a better look at the MAF Yes it’s just a fan, no shroud around it but yes, the radiator is pretty dope, temp never goes past half. Never overheated. No idea who makes it. As you can see...

As I’m sure you can see, my Airbox needs replacing. I’ve had backfiring occur in the past which has blown it to bits. In the process of finding a new one. Anyone know if I can get a replacement out of any old disco or does it have to be the exact make and model?

Yes you’re probably right, I’ll give that a go but if it is the IAC, I wasn’t planning on replacing it, just cleaning it with a carbon cleaner. Then if it’s not doing its job, replacing it would be the way to go but not until I find it and clean it. any chance someone could show me where it is...

Yeah by rough idle I for sure mean unstable. Not only unstable but an occasional (daily) stall when I go from driving to stationary. Which makes me think it’s not getting enough air. Just swapped out all spark plugs and leads and still experiencing the low and fluctuating revs in idle. Now I do...

G’day, once again I have a pretty amateur question compared to what most you fellas are doing out there but I’ve gotta start somewhere. would someone be able to post a photo of where the Idle Air Control Valve is located? I’m experiencing a pretty rough idle and guessing I need to give it a...
