Thanks in advance I have a 94 saab 2.0 nonturbo 9000 CSE which has been on gas for nearly 2 years. It is a standard mixer system with a toroidal tank in the boot. I used to get 33 mpg on petrol at 70-75 on the motorway. I get 24-25 on LPG. I have never had a backfire or anything. It was installed by Motorgas Conversions in Accrington, Lancs (www.motorgasconversions.co.uk) and looked after by them (albeit it is just normal servicing + hooking it up to the laptop to check everything is OK). I would recommend them thoroughly. To me it means I can drive a nice big comfy car with all the toys for the price of running a Fiesta. email me if you want any further details -- Entwisi |

BPV servicing in Slough have done LPG conversions and also service Saabs, my
old Saab 9000 Turbo was serviced there many times. Barry is always helpful and I never had any complaints. I have a VW now so haven't been there for a 9 months or so STeve "entwisi" wrote in message news ![]() On Tue, 13 Jan 2004 19:54:58 +0000, hugh wrote: Looking to convert an R reg - non-turbo with a normal single point system.
