Sticky fuel problem

...

I OWN a AU III Falcon with factory-fitted dual-fuel. At the 30,000km service my dealer told me the gas converter was waxed up and needed to be replaced. He said it was not a warranty claim and quoted $600-700. Is this fair?

FORD offered a dedicated LPG engine in AU, not a dual-fuel system, so it's likely yours was a dealer-fit system. The warranty in your case should be provided by the dealer or the company that did the installation. Go to them. The waxy build-up can be drained. Your dealer should be equipped to do it.
