I am after a LPG Interface cable schematic.
Trying to get an interface going between my laptop and the Tartarini Evolution computer on my Magna.
Seller on Ebay from Germany won't reply with postage costs.
Chap from Viaken Poland wants 40 Euro to send his.
Surely these thing aren't rocket science.
I have scoured the net for schematics but have found none
Anybody with any suggestions?
Regards Craig
Purchased an interface from UK $59AU found it to be a simple circuit Max232 interface.

can a rich or lean mixture on lpg cause damage to a cat like petrol can?
No.
In Australia we can also legally remove the cat in straight LPG vehicles.
Edit; Forgot to mention this.
Closed , dual fuel LPG systems regulate the air/fuel mix via the lambda sensor. When switched to LPG the ECU is still gathering these readings which tend to read as lean in general petrol settings, the ecu with time is richening the petrol settings even though you are running LPG at the time.
The problems occur when switching over to petrol, the engine will run really rich (like a dog). This situation is really killing the cat.
Regularly running the car on petrol helps keep this under control with my Ford however we tend to do a ECU reset on every service which puts the ECU back to factory default.
We rarely run on petrol, its only to get to a servo after running out of gas. After a reset the car runs well on both fuels, 5000km after the service you car smell the petrol fumes out of the exhaust, nearer to service (10,000km) you can feel the rough idle from a rich mixture. Its defiantly killing the cat at this point.
Regularly running on petrol or regularly resetting the ECU normally avoids this predicament.
