Well over the last day of so my Monty runs VERY badly (very very lumpy/ engine shaking etc).  It has to be a fuel problem as it runs on LPG fine.

It is almost fuel starvation/clogged injector, has anyone ideas?  Has anyone tried that injector cleaning stuff to put in the fuel?

Cheers

I'd change the fuel filter if it has one first, I'm guessing its a petrol model.  I've just cleaned my diesel injectors using a tried and tested method told to me by a mechanic friend which is to fill the fuel filter with a bottle of injector cleaner, fire it up and rev the nts off it until the smoke clears!  I've also put another bottle in half a tank of fuel.  I've had good results with this in the past but not sure if it would work on a petrol.
