Most are under pressure like nearly 200 lbs psi...DONT OPEN THIS UP ITS TOO DANGEROUS FUEL UNDER EXTREME HIGH PRESSURE..propane is extremely flamable and dangerous to deal with if you have never messed with it before..this needs dealt with by a professional..you could really blow up the car...

May not have a drain. Most gas tanks used in America do not. Be blessed.

SOURCE: Hello! I have problem with erratic

Is the EGR valve leaking, to check this feel the EGR valve at idle, it should not be hot, if it is the valve is leaking and should be replaced, the second common cause is intake manifold vacuum leaks, u can check this with a can of spray carburetor cleaner, if there is a leak the idle will change as u spray the area of the intake that has the leak, also look for split or loose vacuum hoses, then there is the fuel injectors, u could have one or more that are not spraying correctly from carbon or sludge on the injector tip, the dealer can run an injector flow test to determine if that is a problem, last is low cylinder compression or ignition problems, all cylinders should be within 5% of the highest reading, more than 5% and a rough "ratty" idle is the result. I am a tech of 35 years and this is the order i go in to find these types of problems.

I no what your problem is!! Your catalytic converter's are plugged!! Thats it brother! I had the same problem. Pull your 02 sensor's out on the manifold's and that will tell you if that's it. Let me no if this is it

1993 Nissan Patrol. The vehicle is running rough and is going through the fuel like a blown V8!

Question edited for clarity into written English.
Question moved to a better Category.

Get it on a scan tool and check for codes. They appear to have a history of running rough!

Car has been sitting Need to run.

The old gas will cause hard starting for sure as it is 15 years old but if you don't have very much in the tank you can mix in some new gas.

Hello, I am having Maruthi Omni LPG, for the past 3 months I am facing vehicle jerking problem due to misfire. I changed the Ignition coil ,but now also the problem arises

Th engine must be prroperly tuned for the LPG if this was fitted externally . If this was factory fitted please get a proper fuel setting done on the gas , check the spark plugs , the intensity , and also the timing.

I cant fit the distributer for Nissan patrol 1995

You should never mess around with the distributor if you don't know what your doing! It can throw off your engine timing. Dont start your car my friend. Tow it to a shop and get it done properly.

My 1998 contour svt has been sitting for two years, trying to start car, it wont..is the gas bad in the tank

If it's been sitting for that long, yes the gas goes bad. Drain the tank, fuel lines and even the spark plugs becuase the old gas will foul them too.
Check air filter for free air flow and possible critters living in the intake... two years is quite a while for a car to sit... Also after it's running have your oil and filter changed as well.

My truck will only idle what to do? Do injectors plug? This truck has been sitting for at least 3 years. I drained the old gas and added new. The fuel pump has pressure.

Good chance that the fuel line/injectors/etc. have a varnish on them from the gas evaporating over time. Needs a good cleaning. Suggest something better than just pouring something in gas tank.
