thanks for that, much appreciated, don't suppose you know which is a good replacement sensor to get for this, a look on ebay and you have a wide variety of makes and raging in price from £20 quid up to £120, bit confusing, any help would be good.

Also while we are here the lpg system is switching to petrol after 4 or 5 minutes, if I turn off lpg and then back on again via the switch it will go back to petrol in a second or 2, if I switch the ignition off and restart it will run on lpg for 4 -5 minutes before going back to petrol, it is always the same amount of time, 4-5 minutes, never deviates.
I can confirm the tank solenoid and front one near the vaporizer are switching and working, iv changed the distributor with stepper motor etc as well and the vaporizer all of a car being broken, same fault same symptoms. like i said been told its 02 sensor but i have no check engine light on? could this also be a failing temp sensor?? any help is a big bonus, worked hours on this and back to square one. |

The 2.5 engine looks as though it only has 2 sensors and the part number is far from identical. Have another look! |
