Title: Any thoughts on this LPG Kit?
Post by: tunnie on 04 May 2013, 13:04:33
As some will know my 2.2 blew its exhaust flexi other week, so the 3.2 was pressed back in a more active service. 2.2 flexi is now fixed, just needs to be re-fitted. But using 3.2 is a bit of a shock on the wallet for fuel, made me think if my 2.2 goes bang in a big way and is off road for a while, the 3.2 needs to be cheap to run as well.

So posted eBay kits before, few think they are little pricey. Which they are compared to our old supplier, but calling around various "specialist" LPG places, the few that would sell me kits were way higher than eBay.

This kit has the known good Gold reducer & OMVL injectors.

For the rear end kit, I'm going to go Tinley Tech. Yes again, not the cheapest, but have excellent service and kit I've had from them has been faultless. But in the absence of our previous supplier, I have no other options  :(

Thoughts?  :-\

From the ad. it says all necessary accessories are included, so presumably that includes the gas tank and fittings. It seems a reasonable price, especially if you can get tubby TB to fit it for you. :y

I wish, rear end kit is another £500+  ;)

That's still not bad though, as it means you'll get all the kit for under a grand!?  ???

I expect if you went to an installer they'd charge a couple of grand, supply and fit?  :-\

£800 I expect, installers want £900+ but often they do a shit job. Least this way I know it's done right, lot of experts here :)
