Hi all,
Not Holden related this time but my 1983 2F motored Landcruiser has a really odd gas fault. It has a known good convertor, new tank but it seems to just not be getting any gas. The solenoids click when the key is turned on and the 'primer' switch flicked but as I said no gas. Yes I checked the bottle is turned on and the convertor gets warm when the engine is going!! All I can think of is that the safety switch is playing up, but hoping others out there might have some ideas?? Thanks in advance.
Peter

Hello Peter,
What mixer does it have? I have heard of the diaphragm stuffing up in Impco mixers. This question is of course irrelevant if you have already ascertained that there is no gas leaving the mixer.
