Mk5 2000 - 2.0 LPG : Petrol mode troubles

[ShepherdKai]

I own a mk5 (2000) Transit camping-car (french brand, model name "Déclic") , the engine is a 2.0 , 114 hp , DOHC ... And is running LPG and Petrol.

My problem : the van runs very well on gaz. But not on petrol : big lack of power at high speed (highway impossible) and climbs. Starts very well, idle OK, seems good until i ask it to pull more...

I am travelling in Spain right now. A garage did the diagnostic , unfortunately I didn't get the error code, but they told me the problem was the vacuum solenoid valve. It's generating vacuum for the EGR circuit for what I understand. The piece is referenced 95bb9j459aa and I expect to find one soon around here. The guy gave me a replacement valve taken from a Transit 3 or 4 but Diesel (TDCi) : it didn't solve the problem, the same error code comes back.

So I wonder if it's with trying the exact piece, same reference or the problem may be elsewhere. In clear : are these valves the same for all motor types ? The valve is pretty much the same aspect, and physically compatible. I just wonder if the voltage may be different and thats why it doesn't work.

Sorry for the long message, I hope somebody knows about this kind of troubles on LPG Transits ... Regards.

How strange

We either have someone who likes playing games with us, whilst breaking forum rules regarding duplicate accounts, or we have a spammer who is copying a legitimate post in order to get the first post approved

Either way, I'll be watching from now on, thanks for the heads up Matt
