all set for LPG Day 1
24. Mar 2010 at 18:58
 
Lazydocker is arriving tomorrow so we can start my LPG project, just finished getting everything together, list of little bits here and there need is quite a bit, done about 3 trips to screwfix to get odd holescrews, cone drils and bolts.

Decided to put all the gear i have out on the garage floor to make things easy to find:

Throttle body, manifold, drill, soldering iron, pipework (cooling & polyflex)

...

Evaporator, tank valve, tank box, loads of water T's L's, filters, loads of bolts, bag was only £4, did not say how many came, think i might have gone a bit OTT  Roll Eyes - Ah well could always do with a few spares  Grin

...

Main Loom, pressure sensors, and outer filler

...

ECU, 90 degree filler, manuals and paper work

...

All the gear, ready for the car in the background  Smiley

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Well mines a X plate on 137k (lot for a 4 pot)

But seen 4 pot petrols in the scrappy with 250k, i expect to save £10 a day, and it will be paid back within 5 months on business miles alone.

Even if i only get 2 more years of use out of the car, which is about right given my current millage. It will have paid for itself time and time again  Smiley
