Classicswede how interesting. Thanks for the response. There's more on my blog titled 'Big Bang.

I knew about lean running but when I had my MOT in October it did'nt get through the emissions. CO 5.460%, so I turned down the mixture screw half a turn and it passed 2.592%. My IWEMA Dutch LPG book gives 05% to 1.0% at 3000rpm? Something is not right! It must be the difference between idle and 3000RPM

It seemed to run better too, and when I took out the plugs 6 months later, they were a nice brown gray colour. So I thought OK!

The evaporiser is a Dutch GOOT single stage, But I have a OMVL tandem; I am planning to put in. This will improve control over a large RPM range. I hope, and may get over my problems.

I see there is a cast 200 and 230 mark on the side of the blocks. I take it that there is less cast iron in the 200 and wont bore out to 2300 (2316cc).

I still have the 200 head in good condition and will put on the 230. Any problems there, they look identical both have V cams.
