Hello.

I am writing you from Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

I had lots of problems with my 2002 206 1.4 XS LPG converted going uphills while hot. Specially when AC was on. Car was losing power almost stalling and my fuel economy was poor also.
I tried with changing spark plugs from NGK platinum to Bosch Super 4-s, car was running better but it was still not it. Fuel economy remained the same and car was dying going uphills on low speeds under 60 Km/h. Engine Temp in that cases was well above 90 Celsius even more than 95.

Then I decided to change Oil after 20.000 Km 10.000 made on LPG. I decided to use Total Quartz 5w40 full synthetic a bit more expensive than 10w40 semi synthetic oil. I changed oil and air filter also. And voila my car after few kilometers was running much better and fuel economy improved by 1.5 liter per 100 km mostly urban driving.

13000 miles a service you probably want full syn with extended drain interval oil.

As I remember even with 10W40 i should have service interval on 30.000 km. Then there is probably error in their manuals. Newer the less from now on I change oil an filters on 10.000 km.
