LPG and underslung tanks on a Range Rover P38 by
TonywBond
Hi all,
I'm interested in knowing if any of you have a managed to do an LPG
conversion on a Range Rover P38 (mine is a 4.6 HSE on a 99 plate) that
does not either use the spare wheel well (2 punctures in the last year)
or sit in the boot. I know that for both defenders and discos you can
fit underslung tanks so I guess my question is can this be done on a
p38 and if so does anyone recomend a...

LPG on multi port EFi by
john
Someone said to me today that it was just a case of fitting a solenoid
and feeding LPG or petrol through the same pipe to the injectors.
Sounds /far/ too easy........ Engine is a small block Chevy 350 with a
Tuned Port Injection unit.

Emmegas switch by
big jon
I wonder if any one can help, does the old emmegas changeover switch( 7
wires on back of unit) automatically change the vehicle to gas once
running, or do you have to do it manually. I am willing to buy an
automatic unit, but if the one I have does it, then why spend the money
on something that is perfectly fine.

tank shut off valve by
Steve Taylor
While trying to see if the solenoid valves were full of **** tonight, I
nearly had one myself - I thought the tanks had an automatic shut off ??
Mine didn't, and I've just had cryogenically cold gas spraying on my
hands as I desparately tried to shut the nut again !!
Have I got a major problem ?

Kit supplier - Navitron by
Stewart Hargrave
Dunno if anybody else knows of this lot, but I've just come across a
DIY kit supplier I've not heard of before. Supply kits for lawnmowers
to big V8s. Fairly useful FAQ in the site, and if anybody is
interested, also supply all sorts of domestic alternative energy
installations.
http://www.navitron.org.uk/autogas.htm
It's even prompted me to update my page of kit suppliers. Miracle.

Vauxhall Astra 1.8 Dual Fuel Cutting out by
www.cubafriends.co.uk
Hi, My Astra has started cutting out on change over to LPG. If I am
driving I lose all power, for about 6-10 seconds and it feels like the
engine has stalled, but the revs are still kept up(i guess by the car
moving) then the power is back. If I leave it idle, I just stalls, I have
even tried holding it at 2500-3000 revs to see if that keeps it but as soon
as I hear the click of the relay...

Wont run on gas after running out by
Tom Woods
My car wont start/run on gas now after i ran out earlier today.
I presume i ran out anyway - the car should have been about empty and
I was on my way to the petrol station when it suddenly lost all power.
I changed over to petrol and it started running again.
I then filled up with gas (though i only got 52l in a 70l tank), and
the car now wont start on or change over to gas when moving.
Is it...

joints. by
Steve
Hi folks,
I need to modify and extend part of the LPG system in my 101 - partly so
I can rotate the mucked up vapouriser and partly so I can do my reserve
tank thing.
What is permitted for joints ? Will standard brass compression fittings
pass muster or do they have to be specially certified ? I got a load of
twaddle off an installer who insisted it was "illegal" to have a joint
between...
