Evening all, a fun day underneath the car tinkering with it.
Replaced the regulator in the Alternator, and indeed 100% fixed that problem so thank you for that. No red battery light on dash and well over 14v being put back into the battery when the car is running.
Can you tell which is the old one....
Though getting the alternator back in, lined up and bolts in is a little fiddly.
So back to the fuel problem.
To summarise, car was working perfect then the Alternator died which in turn killed the battery and the car stopped. Put new battery in and ran on petrol briefly then died, so got it home on LPG.
Checked today and there is 12v going to the Fuel pump, I can hear it running in the car also.
To be 100% sure I took the fuel pump out and checked everything, made sure it was all connected and working and put it all back and its seated properly.
So....
It will not start on petrol, fuel gauge shows 1/2 full. Works on LPG if I force it to start but dies when flicking back to petrol on the OMVL LPG button. I did get it running for a short period on petrol after revving the car to 4,000 rpm on LPG and flicking back to petrol but it shortly died again.
This is an interesting one really and could be many things, I am beginning to feel it may be earthing/ electrical so will check the amps on the connection to the pump under some form of load next to see what that does.
It could well be the LPG system has gone a little broken after the battery when flat. It may be now upset and its not switching properly, so I will look into that as its a really good point well made.
Without doubt petrol in it but as a wise man says put some more in and see, so will top it up at some point also.
I am sure it will be simple once I have worked it out
