    I will soon find out who fitted the LPG system, what type t is and all that and will base my decision on this. Any experiences / knowledge would be appreciated cos the last thing I want is to be driving a new born around in something dangerous or unreliable!

    Can anyone explain why lpg fuel pumps are not all set at the same pressure. The reason I ask this is having used quite afew pumps Iseem to get different fill levels. I have 70lt toroidal tank-56lt capacity, only two pumps managed over 50lt and most seem to be 37 to 40lt.
  • Honda Legend LPG conversion 31 Jan 2005 (Forum)
    I have spoken to Powershift who say the car is not eligable for a grant (car is over 5 years old) and been on the website www.greenfuel.org.uk who quote £1,870 for the conversion with a projected saving of £1,126.88 per annum based on an annual mileage of 12,000. Firstly, has anyone any experience of running a LPG converted Legend who can vouch for the accuracy of the savings? Secondly, is ther room for discounts on the quoted price for the conversion? No concessions on congestion charging, etc affect me.
  • lpg conversion - Range Rover 4.2LSE 3 Jul 2004 (Forum)
    I have recently converted my 4.2LSE Range Rover to gas. It runs fine on petrol but hunts at idle on gas although from 1000rpm on it is fine. Does any one...
  • Honda FRV - LPG Conversion - city driving 9 Aug 2012 (Forum)
    It has been very reliable and an ideal family car so I intend to keep it for the next 5 years. I have been thinking of an LPG conversion but cannot actually work out whether or not it is a good idea. I can reasonably work out payback time etc but the real issue is that we do a lot of short journeys under 5 miles. I cannot work out whether or not this is a suitable pattern for an LPG car?

  • Jaguar S-Type (1999 - 2007) - (99-07) LPG problem. Gas melting flexible pipes. 21 Dec 2007 (Forum)
    I am having problems with my LPG conversion now 18 months down the line. My agent tells me that there may be a problem with the gas melting the flexible pipes, this seems to have raised its ugly head in Holland and I am told that we in the UK export 3 million tons of gas.
  • Ford Focus (1998 - 2004) - 03 1.8 LPG fuel problem 7 Oct 2008 (Forum)
    I've read some previous posts on lpg which seem to suggest it might be some kind of filter in the gas fuel line. Any advice would be appreciated.
  • Jeep Grand Cherokee 4 ltr 2000 - ECU problem 6 Aug 2013 (Forum)
    I recently purchased the above with LPG conversation. The conversion turned out to be very badly installed so I have had new fitted. The garage are struggling with the ECU on both petrol and LPG. I am to,d when plugging in the diagnostics tester all is fine for a while and then the ECU zeros on all fuel related sensing whilst all other ECU values are fine.
  • Jaguar X-Type (2001 - 2009) - 3 litre (lpg) Different oil used when serviced 5 Dec 2007 (Forum)
    I just had my Jag xype 3 litre (lpg) serviced at my usual dealer, who had recently been taken over by a new owner. I noticed that instead of the usual 0w40 they had used 5w30 I know his is what jaguar had recomended in the begining but can i expect any difference in performance because of the 5w30?
  • LPG conversion - Where in/around Fareham 25 Mar 2003 (Forum)
    Thanks to some very excellent advice from this website I have decided to get my Discovery V8 converted to LPG. I have done quite a lot of homework (mainly surfing) and realise that there are a lot of cowboy merchants out for a quick buck. I'm worried about being ripped off so can someone recommend a garage in or around Fareham in Hampshire.
  • Jeep - Fitted with LPG - good idea? 9 Nov 2007 (Forum)
    Daughter's BF, a car enthusiast with a Skyline which he takes to circuits for a nice blast, is apparently thinking of getting rid of his daily-driver Clio and buying a 'Jeep' which will be congestion charge exempt. Seems likely that it will be a 4-litre Cherokee with an LPG conversion. I wonder whether this is a good idea? My feeling is that it will be expensive to run, may have the transmission problems I have read about here, may be troublesome in the LPG department setting aside the availability of the stuff, and may not be CC exempt from next year.
  • Subaru Legacy & LPG Conversion 22 Feb 2003 (Forum)
    Does anyone here have any experience with having a Subaru Legacy converted to LPG ??? I test drove an Outback recently and was very impressed with the vehicle, but I have read in many reviews, and was told by the dealer that they tend to be quite thirsty... I would be intending to buy a used 4or 5 year old 2.5 estate or outback, automatic, and have the vehicle converted to LPG.
  • Lexus LS400 - LPG blog 13 Oct 2013 (Forum)
    I thought it might be useful to write a blog of my experience of LPG conversion from start to finish. Today I will be dropping off my 1999 Lexus mk4 LS400 to Battersea Autogas to have a BRC system with auto flash lube fitted. I have requested they remove the inlet manifold when drilling to prevent swarf entering the engine.
  • Land Rover Discovery (1989 - 1998) - 96 3.9 LPG fault 10 Aug 2009 (Forum)
    When the petrol pump symbol is on red, it runs on petrol, but when the button is pushed, it changes to 4 green led's followed by 1 amber and 1 red one, this may mean empty? I put £15 of LPG in yesterday but this may have leaked out by now. When it switches over it runs for a few seconds then cuts out. Very hard to restart on petrol. Any ideas?
  • Jeep Cherokee (1993 - 2001) - 1995 4.0l LPG Problem 8 Aug 2008 (Forum)
    I've just bought a '95 Jeep Cherokee 4.0l Ltd. with an lpg conversion and for the first few days, it has run perfectly. However, it has now started cutting out at every junction and roundabout while on gas but no problems when on petrol. I have to admit I may have accidentally allowed the tank to run dry on the way to my first gas fill-up but there's none of the backfiring I was warned about.
  • Volvo V70 management light 28 Jul 2007 (Forum)
    My son has a W reg V70, in very nice condition,recently serviced etc, the car has had a certificated LPG conversion. He has had a problem with the management light coming on, he has taken it back to dealer who has been very helpful including paying Volvo dealer to change all manner of sensors etc, who blamed the LPG but when it went to a independant arbitrator they stated that the light came on when the LPG was turned off anway.
