I know there was one member that performed the LPG conversion awhile ago. Did you do a search on here?

24 is way to high, you should be able to cut out 10 from this number, have you got obd reader to check fuel trims?

Seriously? Fine stuff? They produce cheap chinese knock offs often made of cheap, inferior metals, etc.
Everything from that dump should be banned and/or taxed beyond their means of paying.
They've made cheap chinese copies, copyright infringement, and patent violations a national occupation. Throw in biological terrorism now and quite frankly it should be made a parking lot. Anyone buying chinese junk does so at their own peril. By buying their cheap knockoffs and stolen property one is contributing to these crimes and I'll personally wish them the worst.
They're the reason we all pay so much for the real deal. Companies trying to recoup $$$ lost to blatant theft by communist china.
A real sore spot with me.
