Everything is now going fine.. a few distractions but we are on track for the deadline of getting it completed this weekend.

Inlet manifold / injectors / throttle body was a bit of a pain, but is now all done. Probably easier on the v6 by comparison - much less work to take the manifold off!

Oh, and the tank valve needs to come back out briefly to enable the feed to engine bay connection to fit...

More to come, we are about to go and continue the gas fitting!

I wonder how Marie`s LPG-conversion weekend is going?

Job done. :y It was a real strugle to get it all done in a weekend and there are a few loose ends to tidy up but Marie drove off into the sunset about an hour ago, burning LPG. :)

Well i walked in 30mins ago and hubby walked out 10 mins later. :'(

The car has never been better. apart from the loose ends which i would have liked to sort out today but bl00dy hubby wanted the car like yesterday >:( Remind me the loose ends please Kevin just so i make sure i sort them all out when i get the car back on friday)

i cant thank Kevin and James enough for all there hard work with the car and Emma for all her lovely cookin and hospitality.  :) im just so sorry i had to rush off like that. i feel really guilty for leaving the garage like a bombs site. :(

THANKYOU AGAIN!
