LPG

(1/3) > >>

bullfrog:
Been offered a choice of 2 LPG systems for £275 .
One is new but no instructions and other is still on running rangie.
It seems a good price although I will need a smaller tank as both are large and wont fit where I plan on putting it. (between rear arches in tub)
I have heard rumours that gas is going up soon and BP are decomissioning some of the LPG pumps at stations ?
I have considered a Tdi conversion but really like the V8 power and sound and dont really mind running costs. I just figured at that price it should pay for itself fairly quickly and should add value to vehicle ?
I dont plan on selling soon but you never know !
NickP on here will be helping (I hope) and I can get it certificated locally.

Should half your running costs so depends how many miles you do as to how long payback is.

I have had mine fitted 20 months now and LPG has gone up 10 pence in this time but the freeze on the tax is ending soon but as I have done approx 15000 miles its more than payed for.  Also engine oil and plugs last longer the oil is still clear after 3000 and I have never touched plugs since kit was fitted (apart from taking them out and putting back in).

Bunch of hoss [!Expletive Deleted!]..run it as life intended..ie petrol less doo dads to go wrong

Range Rover Blues:
Just fitted a mutli oint to the LSE, goes like stink and has more than halved the runing costs, plus it's so much better for the engine.  Havn't heard that about BP but I wouldn' tbe surprised if the tax goes up, once they have a decent nuymber of people hooked they reel them in, wasn't that what happened with Deisel?

Thing is LPG is a cleaner fuel and a sensible way of meeting the Euro 5 emissions on Deisels too.  A lot of manufacturers are using fuel additives now to meet the regs and these systems are going wrong.......
