Hey boys,
Cleaned throttle body right out, getting full range on it, everything seems to be fine.

Cleaned the air box, and replaced the element. No blockages. There’s something simple that I’m missing surely.

Thanks for the confirmation. Swore I could hear it. Phew.

Changed fuel pump, still no power

It “was” running beautifully on both lpg and unleaded on the drive home. Then the pump started to sing after sitting for a few hours then driving again. It was about 240 km to drive it back, and it didn’t miss a beat. Then took it for half hour drive that night and the pump started to whine. I didn’t notice power loss at that stage because I was on gas, and also it was late at night in Warrandyte and I’m not quite use to the xg handling. So I wasn’t pushing it.

But then drove it yesterday and that’s when I noticed the power loss once it warmed up. It smells like it’s running rich over rotten egg smell.

Going to replace the fuel pump and put a new o2 sensor in and see what happens. Well and truly got me stumped

with My XG, i am fairly sure the injectors were cut but the pump still ran.. LPG conversions could do it a few ways i think

Starts off sounding fine, relay kicks, pump rolls over and it’s all good, then once it’s bad the whirring is almost intolerable

Neither did I, but bloke I bought it off- ex ford employee reckons it’s always ran the whole time..

Definite fuel pump. Can’t miss the old falcon fuel pump sound

Gday boys, finally picked up my xg, and I’m finding it has some troubles with fuel pump even when running on gas.
 
Seems it’s buggered as it’s singing bloody loud the entire time the cars on once it’s been running a while and warmed up. Goes fine while it’s cold.
 
My question is whether or not a buggered fuel pump will make me loose power even on gas ? Coming home yesterday from a run up the road I could barely get to 80 with foot flat. Zero grunt.
 
Exhaust is pretty smelly, so I’m thinking the o2 sensor may be buggered too which could be a cause ?
 
Any other ideas fellas, I’m pulling my hair out
 
Cheers.

I did notice marketplace buzzing with heartbreak and regret. At this point I’m just going to hold on to them, and wait for the right guy who needs them. He can pay 150, but need them for the right reason and that’s incentive enough for me. I guess we are all doing it tough. Look on the bright side, my Ute looks filth and the suns shining

Thanks for the positivity mate. I’m really glad I found this forum

Yeah look I wasn’t expecting to get 4, just hoping to give my self some bargaining power. But I guess I’d prefer keep them in terms of a couple hundred bucks.. just got made redundant and times are tougher than expected

Went with 14”s all round. 12 week wait for my wheels, but I dropped it by two inches and it looks pretty nice I think, once I get the stockies off it should match what I had in my head

There’s something about ol’school wheels that just presses buttons the right way
