Impressive 150 mph with a full tank of petrol and 142K on the clock 8-)

[Jim]

Well, Thank You
I lived in Germany for 5 years

[ILKU]

How long doe it take to fit an LPG kit to V6, I have family in Germany near Hannover so could combine the two.

It's about one day i belive. But you would have to make an appointment first. I live in Koszalin, thats about 120miles from German border, but you can come to Szczecin, its right after border. Thats 440km from Hannover.
If you make your mind, just let me know - i find the right garage for you.
BTW. Realy nice webside

Unfitted is about 300pounds for 4-cyl engine and 400 for 6-cyl. Thats a price without gas tank.
Gas tank is about 70-100.
Fully fitted in car is about 500 for 4-cyl and about 580 for 6-zyl.
They gives you 24month warranty.
Not to bad?? isn't it??  

Around half UK price - a local chap was right then when he said that new prices in Poland were cheaper than repaired kit in the UK.

I wonder how much to ship a kit to the UK?

I'II let you know

Wow the LPG conversion is very cheap over there, definitely worth the cost of driving over

My main concern would be that it won't be perfect straight away, probably requiring some adjustment after a week or so, which is a problem when it's 800 miles away!

PS The car is looking very nice, and I love the idea of bi-xenons!

Yes. there might be some adjustment to do after time. But meyby there is a garage in Britain, that will do that for you??
Shipping from Poland to England is about 50[ch321].

I already have a dual-fuel Omega, so it's not an issue for me at the moment. Mine was done in the UK before I bought it, at a cost of around £1800 I think -- I have the receipt somewhere

There are certainly plenty of places who will adjust the system for you, but at similarly extortionate UK prices. I think most of them will charge around £70 as soon as they connect it to a diagnostic computer! If you only have to go once and have a few settings changed, then it's no problem. But any more than that, and it will cancel out the savings made by travelling to Poland.

Nice car m8

You probably right. I bought a special cable for my type of LPG ECU. I also have a program for this instalation, so i can use my laptop and adjust whatever i want
Thats very usefull if you know how to do it...

I would quite like something like that for mine... I used to have a logger on my Impreza WRX STi to monitor injector duty cycles, ignition timing etc... Would be interesting to see what all the LPG system is doing. I sometimes get a stall when dipping the clutch to come to a halt after a high speed run (usual place is at a roundabout coming off the motorway) which I'm convinced is due to the fuel cut on overrun being too over-zealous due to being on a closed throttle while slowing. If the Omega's pedal layout wasn't so poor I'd be blipping the gas on downshifts, but I physically can't heel-toe in this car . I'm sure a quick adjustment on the gas ECU would sort it. In the meantime I have modified my driving style to dip the clutch a little earlier, and if it does try to stall I just lift the clutch again while the car still has momentum to lift the revs back up -- after that it sits perfectly idle at 600 RPM.

Where did you get the cable and how much did you pay? I can probably get the software easily enough (according to some online groups it's freely available although I haven't actually checked), and the cable can be bought for around £70-80, but it's quite extortionate for what it is.

[ILKU]

Just tell me what kind of instalation you have (name from ECU for egzample) and i will find a cable for you.

Its in polish, but you can see the list of ECU thouse cables are working with. Price is about 8 pounds.

It's a Tartarini ETAgas so looks like Kabel 6 on that list. £8 is very cheap... over here there are a few companies selling a kit with various leads for about £70, which is fine if you have an LPG business, but I'll only use one lead! Can you get an AEB Leonardo lead too? What about software?

Cheers
