How can we get a new newsgroup? by
Potaroo
We need a new newsgroup heading "world.fuel.prices"
It would be interesting to get the price of fuel around the globe from
motorists. This way we can at least see if our respective governments are
bull****ting to us.
At present here in Sydney Australia we are paying $1:30 per litre for
unleaded fuel.
There I've started the ball rolling.
Cheers, Peter

Autronic changing to gas HOW?????? by
big jon

controller( AL-820/U6). It is computer programmable. The set up seems
all well and good, but I cannot get it to self calibrate on gas, infact
I cannot get it to do anything on gas. If I press the dash button so it
is running on petrol then it will calibrate...

Petrol to Gas Switchover causing backfire by
mike whiskey
I have recently returned to the fold of Gas converted Rangerovers, but
this time with an auto box.
I have a problem in that when cutting across from petrol to gas after
first start, I get a backfire.
I think this is because of how the changeover works.
On my manual car, the change over was when the revs dropped when
changing up from 1st to 2nd, or 2nd to third, depending on how hard I

A Clarke
Hi group I have a series 2 discovery with air suspension it has 2 gas tanks
at the rear and the petrol tank has a reduced capacity ( 5 Gallons ) the lpg
tanks are 80 litre so 65 usable. Under the passenger side of the car is the
compressor and controls for suspension. Is there any way of increasing my
lpg capacity without internal tanks.
thanks in advance

Zafira 1.8 LPG conversion by
Staffbull
Just bought a 1.8 Zafira and am thinking of LPG ( previously had LPG on
my Jag XJ6 and V8 Disco) I take it the Zaf is a good option for LPG as
you can buy them already done. Anyone know what range theyll do, I take
it that the torroidal goes in the wheel rack under the car, whats the
max size that will go in there?
any pointers much appreciated.

Bigas SGI Bits & Bobs by
plod
Hi all,
I've just purchased a Chevy engined Rangie that has a Holley injection
kit on it. I am looking to convert to lpg, as I have my other Rangies,
but the Holly gear would seem to be a bit of a limitation regarding
mixers etc. My choice would appear to be between swapping to a holley /
edelbrock carb, and then using one of the plate mixers, or using a gas
injection kit that doesn't need a...
