V70 2.4 T5se LPG Conversion Possible?

LPG-T5 · Apr 7th, 2012, 20:44

Hi Folks
Have found a v70 T5SE on a 57 plate and wanted to get it converted to LPG. Anyone had any experience here?

What sort of MPG on the 6 speed manual?

It is possible,

needs a fuel pressure fix and valve saver system.

Its about six posts down from yours ...

Speaking in my own experience my T5 is 30,000 miles in and no problems at all...no loss of power, very smooth change over and is saving me a fortune ...
Its a must for a T5 owner.... Just checkout the conversion company in depth before you decide ...i took a very long time to decide and visited many companys before going with my conversion people ...

many people use volvo t5 with lpg in turkey that people is happy
gasoline consumption* 1.2 = LPG consumption
I have s40 2.0T and s70 T5 both of them converted lpg
I think convert to lpg

Mines a 2.3 T5 which if you drive normally equals 220 miles to £30 ....

Do any installers in Turkey use the home produced systems like Voltran, NLP and ultrgas etc? Over here they have a bad name - just curious if they are made for export only?
