blz6662 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Hi guys, not posted for a while so greetings to all. - Vehicle Disco 1 3.5 V8 - 1992 dual fuel single point lpg - Leonardo system Anyway here goes - mot time again and need to do a few repairs/welding on the outer rear sills, but the thing is I don't like the thought of even plugging the mig in while the 2 lpg torpedo tanks are looking at me so are coming out. ( the lpg also has not worked for a year and the tanks are FULL! - went wonky just after filling - grrr!). Looking at this problem, I think if I want to live a while longer I best remove the tanks and get on with the repairs. I don't know what to do for the future though, due to not really doing more that 2000 miles a year shall I just dump the lpg tanks and isolate the rest of the system and just run on petrol (with less weight of the tanks) or get it fixed. The problem with the lpg is that on changeover it blows the 7amp fuse on the main circuit. If I went down the removal route how far would I have to go. Any help would be greatly appreciated Cheers Baden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballcock Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Removing the tanks should be no problem, they should have non return valves on the inlets and solenoids on the outlets. you should be able to gently lower the tanks on a jack and disconnect the pipe work and cables with no real problems. You can leave them off with the rest of the system intact if you wish although removing the mixer on the inlet should help the engine breath. If its blowing a fuse try checking the solenoid supply cables are not earthing from being damaged as a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
