To save some cash and get a realy good gas system try www.blazegas.com, they do a self fit kit that I,ve put on a 3.9 efi, and the wife can get 17+mpg (gotter be the smaller right foot, not so heavy) on gas. I put two 40lt tanks in place of the petrol tank. But blaze now do a 90lt doughnut that go's in the same place. I went for the steel 6.5gallon petrol tank that fits in the off side rear wing but now wish I'd paid for the stainless one :doh: I am going to put the two 40's on my other disco and replace them with the 90lt doughnut and two 36lt sill giving 130lt's of gas and 29lt's of petrol. Just to show much cheaper it can be on gas. Went from home (north essex) to Southampton and back in a day covering 340 miles using 121lt's of gas at 47.9p per litre (the topup at Shell at Fleet services put the cost per litre up :evil:. Localy I was only paying 44.9p) Thats 26.7 gallons,giving 12.73mpg. Not good I hear you cry, but this was towing a 5.2m rib down and towing a 6.5m rib back with a four cyclinder 90hp honda four stroke outboard in the back and the air-con on full most of the way there and back. £58 for the round trip not that bad realy. :D

I've just been and picked mine up - R reg manual with LPG - got twin tanks under the sills but do like the idea of the donut.

Driving back with big grin all the way and never switched radio on once - sounds lovely  :dance:
