    VS Commodore backfires when idle

    Holden Holden Advice Holden Commodore Holden Commodore Advice Holden Commodore 1995
    The dual-fuel 1995 Holden VS Commodore I recently bought is a cracker and cheap to run, but it has started to backfire even when idling. Is this normal for a dual-fuel car?

    Let's put it this way, it's not unusual, it's a sign it needs a service. Go through the ignition system and make sure all is well, perhaps replace the spark plug leads to make sure there aren't any random sparks that could ignite the air/LPG mixture in the intake manifold.
