Gentle uk.rec.cars.fuel.lpg reader,
First, my apology for cross-posting to this NG. Be assured that this is
a one-off. It will never happen again.

of expression.

Fiat X 1/9 FS by
John
Nice car indeed.
Pic's available at request.
I am advertising this car for a good friend, as such I know a good bit
about this car.
Mechanically the car is A1, Body is A1, drives A1. Long MOT and has 5
months Tax. Loads of spares to go with car.

Berkshire, Surrey or local installers for a Grand Cherokee? by
simon.hanmer@gmail.com
Hi all,
can anyone recommend an installer close to Bracknell - so I'm guessing
Berks, Surrey or South Oxfordshire, who could do a good job on
installing to a Grand Cherokee Ltd, preferably underslung tanks?
Any suggestions on what I should be looking for - I guess make sure
they're LPGA but other than that what should I be asking?
Thanks,
SImon

Changes on www.vauxhall.co.uk - no information about the LPG-models by
Rolf Schmitz
Hello,
within the last week I am actualizing our website about the availabilty of
LPG-vehicles (factory-fitted) in Europe.
When I am looking at the site of Vauxhall I am surprised.
There is no more information about the LPG-vehicles ("Dual-Fuel range").
The links
http://vauxhall.co.uk/dualfuel/index.jhtml
http://vauxhall.co.uk/dualfuel/vanRange.jhtml
don't work.

£100 to change 2 filters on Vectra factory fitted LPG? by
georgemichael1@yahoo.com
Vauxhall and 2 other independant LPG specialist have said they will
change the 2 GAS filters no one quoting less than £90.
Vauxhall quote £10 for the parts, The filters are the 3 into 1 Fuel
filter, and a brass filter.
All it requires as far as I can see is pulling the connectors off the
old filter and replacing with the new filter? surely there isnt that
much more to this job.

lpg filling by
technical123@hotmail.com
Hello
With a very small tank on a range rover 60 litres (vehicle purchased
with lpg fitted) and filling to 80 per cent this equals 48 litres but
every time I run out I only seem to be able to put 30 or so litres in.
Is this normal and does it mean there is 18 litres always in the tank I
cannot use.
Thanks very much

Petrol Preferences by
Mark & Tracey
Hi
I've been using LPG on my 2.5 vectra for a few months now and I was
wondering was type of petrol other people use. Prior to having my car
converted I would have used the cheapest supermarket 95RON unleaded all the
time, but I've heard that there are very few additives in it and as my car
now runs on petrol for a very short time I want it to work as hard as
possible.
Is there a particular...

LPG and Cat by
lo.dup@free.fr
Hello,
could someone explain how a catalyser can be damaged by LPG ?
I'm thinking about converting my car to LPG but I noticed that the few
collegues running LPG had to replace the catalyser at a time or
another, which is quite rare normaly.
Bad tuning or what ?
