Filters: in more detail
Many of these cars left the factory without any real filtration. A real sin for the dirtier gas. Low pressure filters are so cheap, it'd be daft not to fit these.Put a 16mm on the 16mm pipe going into the dizzy. Do this whichever gas you're running.
Some don't, but the high pressure side on CNG cars have a Parker made item. The hi-pressure CNG refill is available as a Parker. Volvo, as with their low-pressure in-line filters want crazy prices. £140 and £90 respectively. Which is a lot for blue-ink.
Low pressure [LPG/CNG] is 16mm (about £5-6)
High Pressure [CNG] filter: Parker FFC112 / CLS112-6 (about £25.00 but despite being stamped made in the UK, you'll likely have to get it shipped in from the US)
Of course there are those on this very forum insisting on using only blue-inked Volvo branded spark-plugs even when Volvo don't make spark-plugs, so maybe it's me.
Clearly.
See pics.
WORK IN PROGRESS
