Recently was called out to a Honda Accord 2.0iSE 1998 MY.This car had been converted to LPG and was always run on the gas system except for cold start.The complaint was uneven and lumpy idle.This was caused by exhaust valve clearances closed up to 0.002" from 0.012".Each of the eight exhaust valves had the the same tight clearance.The inlets were all at the correct clearance. I advised customer that valves would need frequent adjustment due to running on LPG.The idea of pretreating the gas seems good .
