Not heard of that before, is this a common thing?
I thought the LPG ECU would be corrected by the ECU it piggy-backs off.

Fairly common on single point mixer systems so i'm told.

On SGi (Sequential Gas injection) then in most cases it would auto-correct. For that reason among others i'll be upgrading that one to SGi in the near (ish) future.

Laird Sir. Have not been on here for a few weeks. I suspect we'd get on very well together. But, in the nicest possible way, can you now f£%* right off? Pretty please?

I knew I shouldn't have said a thing. If the two of us are not careful, we'll do a good job of frightening off your halfwit. The world needs a halfwit. The way i see it, the world needs a halfwit for all sorts of reasons. Particularly when yours truly and by all accounts you, need the next car.

I've got better things to spend my hard-earned on than feeding the motor-trade and banks via emblems of faux-status.

How dare you have the temerity to run a car for the least possible cost?
You're clearly not playing the game.

So go on... be gone.

This is NOW my thread AND you're not having it.
Push off.

Care to elucidate please? Preferably without any ambiguity, hints, aspersions, dubious metaphors etc?

Reading it back perhaps apologies are in order. It should read as a light-hearted, 'Schhh. Keep quiet fella, or we'll be rumbled, when the day comes, there won't be cars to buy'. Only it doesn't. Sorry

Carry on.
