freinds 4runner blew it's intake off after getting an engine bay wash
the gas setup was new, apparently the mechanic gave it a boot when it started missing.
I'm thinking water on the dizzy (car seems to get unhappy when dizzy wet all the time) , no spark, filled with gas, spark comes back BANG ?
yes or no ?

YEAH but it really hates water so like you have to rev it to keep it alive (bigger risk of another intake explosion) so i was thinking it may have a fucked ass dizzy cap or something..

Thay do that, thay run like shit if the h/t's are old, air filter has ANY shit in it.
LPG suck's. If you change from petrol to Lpg on a regular basis the spark plug's shit them self's to.

LPG is some much more of an awesome engine fuel than petrol its not funny
its jsut so hard to move and store and nobody seems to make something even half as good as a half clogged sierra carby for spitting the stuff out that shit always breaks

yeah that's my thoughts, it just seems, stupidly mounted and applied to the vehicle. I'll see what i can do, i would say this vehicle needs a new air filter, leads plugs and dizzy cap lol.
OR the poor version, those components need a clean lol. well maybe i can't do anything about leads.
