Getting LPG fitted next week - Page 2

Looks a LOT neater than their work from a couple of years ago!

I hope they have used flexible pipe from the filler to the tank or you will have problems with the pipe leaking due to the flex from the bumper. The only other thing to keep an eye on is the click clips on the hoses as they can sometimes give trouble.

Keep us updated on how things go.

Did you get your software and lead?

Just an update on this thread

Ive now owned the car for just under two years and done 25k on LPG. I never had a flash lube system fitted when i had the lpg system fitted and had read all the scare stories about valve recession after 10k but the car is still running great. I have not had the LPG system serviced in the time ive had it installed but have changed the inline filters 2 times. I do have the car regularly serviced
From my 72 ltr tank i get an average of 350 miles. If i stick to less than 70mph i have done the 400 miles.
The £1000 one day installation has paid for itself now

Another update on my LPG conversion.

I still have not had my LPG serviced and have now done 37K miles since i had it fitted. Still no difference in performance. On a few occasions i have had 450 miles+ from my 72 litre tank now.
