Nice idea .. but SWTSMBO might object .. and at the Burns Night Supper we are going to I've been promised an "interesting" single malt to accompany the Haggis.... and it will be nice and warm in the hall dressed in me DJ  :)

So much to my regret ( :) ) I must decline your very kind invitation  ;) ;) ;) ;)

Don't rush it. And it is a rush - but possible - over a single weekend.

Agreed. The group of us who have done several can do it in a weekend, but that's with 3/4 people who know exactly what they are doing ;)

I did my first conversion in about 31/2 days, with a little tidying to finish after, but I now know that it wouldn't have passed an inspection due to a couple of very minor things ::)

I'm unavailable tonight but you have my number if you need advice over the weekend, or post it on here for a fairly quick response :y

minie took 2 extended days and 3 people who all worked in different areas it was full on and we didnt spend much time chatting or drinking tea. if i recall correctly i did the arse end.james stripped and rebuilt the engine and kev did the manifold and electrics.

hubby decided to fill the fuel tank full before hand so had the added snag of 70ltrs of petrol to distribute into james car  ;D ;D ;D

Pipes run, vaporiser fitted, pressure switch fitted. Some issues. My vaporiser has dual low pressure take off. Now I've fitted the temperature on just one vapour line. Will this be ok? I've fitted the ECU up behind the suspension pump just below the headlight level control module. In this position the loom is going to be to short on the nearside injector bank. I can move it so it's in front of the suspension pump but I'm worried about water damage. Any other ideas or are these units pretty sturdy and can take a bit of water. I'll finish it tomorrow but judging by the time it's taken me today I don't think I'll get round to commission it.

The Stag 300 is pretty robust. Mount with cables at bottom.

If you want to run electrical connections to both petrol and gas injectors around the back of the engine bay, they will all need extending.  If you run between bagpipes, they don't.
