Hi did suggest having one done (ie mine) at £1150 and if everyone was happy have the rest done :y

I know what you are saying but buying the kit and certification would cost almost £800 then theres the fitting a good couple of weekends, skinned knuckles ect all to save £300. I like the idea of the two year guarantee and I intend to stand and watch the fitting :y

Are you going ahead with this then?  I will be most interested to hear how you get on.

Certification less than £50 with bernard

Do it in a day? Only if you rush...

I'd rather take my time, we also have the added advantage of extensive Omega knowledge

Plus - I could buy a lot of gas for £300 !  ;D

That's a fair comment - but I don't work 7 days a week, and on my days off I like engine therapy, so everyone's a winner in my situation :y

Where have you spoken to Pete?

Think there is an installer between Saltney & Broughton (at Bretton)

May be worth speaking to him.

OK. this is the other thing that has been confusing me. LPG around my way is 55p per litre or more at the couple of places I am aware of who do it. Still better than nothing but 40p will make a conversion pay back much more quickly. Who sells LPG for 40p?

Its a place local to me called Harris Gas. They normally charge 44p but if you pay them £100 up front you get it for 40p and you go and fill up until your £100 has run out. Then start again :y

I have worked out why their kit is cheap - they buy it from Poland

New OMVL kit in Poland is cheaper than refurbished OMVL kit in the UK.

Good luck to them
