Tunnie's 2.2
« on: 31 March 2010, 15:35:04 »
Just seen in your avatar that your car is LPG'd.  When did you manage that, did you post a thread on it.

I know you were on about when James had his LPG yank go missing.....(mmmm- was that a part you were waiting for to complete yoours (only joking))

Did it all work out ok, did you do it yourself?

Only just on my second tank of LPG after rotating it, so not sure on costs yet / pence per mile, but getting 300 mile range even before i've got full capacity out of the tank  :)

And that includes being forced to drive much faster than you're used to :-X ;D :D

Interesting stuff and well done the 2 of you on the install.

I am hit and miss in the other sections, I nip in and out of a different one each day for a catch up, so depending on how busy a thread is I do some times miss stuff.   :-/

Dunno how you could have missed that tbh, it has been the big talking point for the last week.
Several threads, step by step photos etc. I think a "how too" is even being compiled from it. :-/

Actually being compiled from 3 conversions (with a brief appearance of Entwood's car). The V6 version will (hopefully) be done by early next week... The 4 pot version will follow shortly after :y :y
