Title: Worth it for the LPG tank?
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 24 September 2007, 22:29:17

If I don't end up having Tunnie's, just wonder if this is worth it for the LPG tank, and then sell the front end to recoup cost....

would someone buy just the front end for the right price? and would the right price be enough to cover your cost?

does that make sense?? :D

all that rust after 6 months?is the lpg sequential, a lot of kits will have a wiring loom capable of running 4,6 or 8 cylinders

I did wonder that too, Will, lots of rust for 6 months!!

I can get a new SGI kit, all in, for approx £800.... I think I'll save for that, instead (assuming I don't get tunnie's tank and valve, which I know is good..)

Youneed to find out what system it is, sequential or single point. Several ECU's will run several different cylinder numbers, but you may need a different loom. Wonder if it would fit mine  ::)

Systems tend to be in 4s eg 3 or 4, and 5,6, and 8

So if it is a 4 cyl system and SGI forget it. If a mixer well the inlet manifolds are not easy to fit to on the Omegas

Don't like the look of that car - looks too tatty.

Try offering £75

even on that car, in that condition, has the tank itself really suffered much?
