V70 LPG Necam Distributor Removal

Hi. I own a 2002 (52 reg) Volvo V70 Factory Fit Bi-Fuel (LPG) Auto. I had the Necam Mega LPG Distributor replaced (by an LPG specialist) with a new unit approx. 18 months 10,000 miles ago due to miss-fire problems. The car has run fine until now. I now have a slight miss-fire back again when running on LPG and the emissions check light is on. (fault interogation indicates a miss-fire on No.5 cyl) The car runs without fault on petrol, and I suspect a blockage of the gas paths in the Distributor. I have tried flushing the Distributor with Injection cleaner, as detailed elsewhere on this forum, but this seems to have made little if any difference.

I believe the Distributor needs to be removed for a strip and thorough internal clean. I wonder if anyone has a procedure/experience for the removal/refitting of the distributor on this particular model?

Regards
