I would post it, but it's got screen shots from VARDIS on it, I don't know if that's against the rules?

Hello,

Just read you posts in the forum about cleaning the gas distributor by using STP fuel injector cleaner.
Could you send me some guide how to do it.
I got bi fuel S40 2003. And it started to misfire between 2000-2500 RPM. The problem is intermittent, I replaced plugs and coils without any success.
my email: karpenkoandrei@gmail.com
thank you for your help.

Er... not all these car have that filter. Which with LPG as grubby as it is, is a crime. CNG is far cleaner. That'll teach you to use 'Big Girl's Gas'...

Easy to fit a CNG/ LPG filter. £5-6 on ebay, plus some extra hose if what you have si not long enough. Make sure you get CNG / LPG rated hose. Can't remember the size offhand. But Volvo want £30 for the part.

And for the nth time!.. plugs MUST never be anything with more than one prong. Low spec. See the numerous threads on this by me and others.

Clean your distributor, these almost never need replacement yet every one liek to spend £2-300 for no apparent reason. If you wnat you can any of my stack at £100 a pop, but why you would baffles me.
it's the stepper that wears, not the dizzy.
