The V8 Owners Forum -

the OVML one are they any better than the other sort ?

Hi Bodger,

The new generation of vapouriser are indeed better than the old ones that had stiffer diahragms and were much more sensitive to pessure differentials.

The new ones are more stable, offer better functionality and are also significantly smaller than the old ones.

There are several makes and also many variations dependant on what is needed. Check carefully how much LPG you need in relation to engine size and select the vap that meets your needs.

For good measure I would suggest making sure that although good water supply is common sense, I would still consider keeping mine out of the way from signifanct heat sources i.e. exhausts and also air flow as they will still alter the diaphragm position and affect the balance.

Some will say it does not matter, some will say it matters.

Find what works for you. AS you are on a mixer and not injection (not really an option as the banks are fired in fours simultaneously) then suck it and see what happens.

the reason i ask is i have just bought on of these

bloody ebay , it'll be the death of me one day , or the ruin anyway .lol

it was cheap though , well not as cheap as not buying it at all , and new so ......... i thought why not

are they easy to set up ? and where can i get instructions for it ?
thankyou once again

They are easy to set up, provided you have a gas analyser or lambda sensor.

Both my V8's have one.

Chris.

Good choice.

I've run those on 300bhp Rovers with no issues.

There is an upgraded version of the R90 available.

thankyou Chris , i remember seeing one in your pictures , i don't think this one has any instructions , do you have any i could copy please ?

I've got some from Chris Perfect components, I'll see if I can find them later (more to the point, I'll see if I can remember to look!)

Chris.

thankyou Chris , are they quite straight forward to do ?

will i need them ?

i have one of these http://cgi.ebay.ph/Autogas-Lpg-Lambda-C ... dZViewItem
will that be ok to set up with , i've also got a GUNSONS exhaust tester thingy too

The gunsons thing is just fine. I think that might be what it recommends.

Chris.

all fitted and running as it came out of the box , so i'll get round to setting it up tomorrow ...

right i stuck the GUNSONS thing on it today , at full running temp
fans on/off
at it reads just below 1% on tick over , thats on petrol and on LPG
Too lean ??

I would be inclined to set it at 2% on LPG
