As some of you might know, my Accord is converted to run on LPG.
Today, I let the LPG tank go empty, I ended up running on petrol for a few miles, the distance I took to get the the gas station.
While running on petrol, the engine started to make funny noises, mostly on load: 2ª gear at about 3000rpm, or 3ª gear at 2500rpm. I think the engine is knocking.
The funny thing is, it only does this when running on Petrol, while on LPG, there is no noise.
Any ideas of what might this be?
I guess it's something related to the petrol system, right?
Dirty injectors?
Bad or old fuel?I have always used this petrol and never had any problems.
Could it be the knock sensor that it is faulty?
I have already check the ignition timing, and it's ok.
I think I have no error codes, since the check engine light is not on. Still, I am not sure since the car doesn't have an OBD socket.
