I had a PRINS VSI system installed on my 2003 model Ford BA, 6 cylinder, sedan, about 6 weeks ago. In this short time the system failed to operate on LPG at least 6 times for periods of 1 day to 1 week. The problem has been temporarily solved under waranty by replacing the LPG solenoid shutoff valve that is next to the converter. The valve was failing to open and the computer would think that the LPG tank was empty so would switch over to petrol. So far this valve has been replaced 3 times. It would seem that this valve is prone to failure. Has anyone heard of a similar failure on a PRINS VSI system and if there is a solution?
