My Import Ex has been concerted to run on LPG - the Prins system has been fitted. So far I am very pleased with it, but it is barely run in yet.
Today I put the air con on max, just to run it up since it has not been used for a few months. First thing to happen was the petrol LED on the control switch illuminated after a few minutes indicating that the gas system was going to standby. Then I had to switch over to petrol from gas as the motor was going to stall. The upshot is that the installer says that I can only use air con on the minimum setting as valves in the cooling system shut to stop water flow to the heater matrix when air con is on max, this also stops water flow to the gas heater. He claims a lot of plumbing is needed if I want to use the air con on max to overcome the problem. Anyone else come across this and if so what was done to overcome the problem?
