LPG Discussion Forum

Well I hope they get busy! I was driving from Salisbury back to York today and the only station I could find was selling at 107ppl

I'd love to see the criteria by which the French and Germans classify LPG in the cleanest categories. It'd be nice info to spread around and try to keep LPG going in the UK.

I don't suppose that includes the baby BRC that I have?

I went through a bad patch of destroying fuel pumps on my Jeep a couple of years ago. I was very pleased with whoever had cut a whole in the boot floor so I didn't have to drop the tank every time!
The current one seems to be lasting, but I'd be happier if it wasn't running all the time.

I get just over 3 miles a litre in my Cherokee 4.0
but a bit less on the Ranger Rover 4.6
It's generally under 3 thrashing around rural B roads but it'll get to 3 on the motorway.

I thought this video was quite interesting. I'd love one of those aircraft style cylinder temp/EGT gauge setups!

I can't see any reason that the testers should give converted vehicles any more leeway on the MIL than non converted ones.
If the job is done right, the light should be off. If the light is on because the mixture us wrong then the engine will either be creating more pollution than necessary (and ...

It's no cheaper to run than diesel once you do the maths.
Which annoyed me because the guy was mathemarically literate, just ignorant of the costs of lpg.

Also "Well where would you buy it from?"
So I say "you know the third price on petrol station signs?"
"Yeah"
"There"

I've got a brc system on my jeep but I'm not seeing any advantages over a more accessible system.

I'd love to see a jeep commander. I was tempted briefly but ended up with a p38 Range Rover instead. It would be interesting to compare notes!

It is. My E46 had a similar problem. The rad bowed so much it was a nightmare to get out, even after it finally let go and dumped all the coolant in about a second!

A nice neat job there, Simon

Haha definitely retro.
This was the start of the journey that ended with the P38 you converted a while back. It's a fun old bus but my wife hasn't bonded with it. I think we'll keep hold of the Rangey but she's hankering after something faster and manual. Women are great :) She's talking about ...

Well, it's up and running again now with a Bosch module :) Yep, it was the only option I could find that wasn't explicitly Chinese. It even came with a two year warranty.
The downside is the price and the fact that I could only find one in the USA so I had to wait a week for shipping.

If the pump ...

Nope, just a one way line from the pump to the fuel rail from what I can see.
edit: some googling round the Jeep forums seems to confirm that this fuel system is just one way.

Hmm, I think the hole in my tank is a bit small - it takes me ages to line up the rubber seal thing properly. Maybe the fact that the access hole in my boot floor is off centre makes more of a difference than I thought.

Well I got it out :)
Sorry I didn't reply earlier! I had to take the pressure regulator off to get to the nuts on the retaining ring. I'd done that when putting it in too.. it just snaps out and back again.
I had checked the feed for voltage, and it was good so I was pretty sure it was the pump. The ...

Folks,
I've just come back in from changing the fuel pump in my Jeep Cheroke 4.0. I did the same job two years ago and fitted a Denso pump. This time I've fitted Bosch.
I see to be getting through them pretty fast. Bearing in mind that the fuel tank is clean (and it's only three years old) I'm ...

Folks,
I wonder if anyone has dealt with this problem before?
I've got the Tinley Tech dual tank setup and the petrol pump has failed. There's a hole in the boot floor so I can (sort of) reach the pump module but the gasket is so tight I can't shift it.
When I fitted the pump it seemed tight, but ...

Heh, seems my P38 is getting a bit well known!

Simon, if you remember you said that there were some mixture related codes pending when you converted it. Your best guess at the time was that the MAF might be on its way out but you said I should check it on dedicated diagnostic gear.

Since then I've ...

I don't know if you ever venture further North or East but the BATA stations (all three of them) run a 2p discount scheme. The one in Helmsley sells at 49.9 ppl anyway so 47.9 is now the lowest I can find nearby. Even if it's not really _that_ near I can top up as I go past. They have another ...
