|
|
|
I just finished up the conversion to run on gas and love it. Kit works as it should, swapping between fuels is no problem, and 60P per liter!
I will say that I did the installation not once, but twice. I mounted everything and just didnt like it randomly cobbed around the engine compartment and all. I thought about the little tool kit area under the passenger seat and this worked perfectly. Electric fuel pump, fuel filter, LPG solenoid, and petrol solenoid all fit perfectly and it is relatively protected from the elements. As protected as anything can be on a vehicle that fords rivers and plays in mud anyways. All in all I am quite happy with the conversion.
cheers,
Dan

If you havent seen it in Southampton yet, you should see it at Slab common on the 28th! I am off to Cambridge for Mog fest 20-21, and planning on heading your way the following weekend for the run there.

Dan+Pete, glad to hear you're going to make Slab.We should have quite a few people coming up from this end.What sort of top speed do you cruise at Dan?Drop me a PM with your phone number and i'll give you a call to make an arrangement.I'll probably go cross country and get there a little early.A32/A272 is a nice drive at that time of the morning.WHat are you driving Pete,I'll keep a lok out for you up there.

It can hold a steady 60 mph on the level, but 55mph is more comfortable. I am all for back roads and the scenic route. I would enjoy the drive over with you and a guide to get there! I will drop you a line and we can make arrangements to meet and head over.
cheers,
Dan
