How much petrol do you use whilst running an LPG car?

I've been told an LPG converted car needs a little petrol to get warmed up etc

If you could state the mileage and costs etc

Thanks

1. Can the Prins setup be uninstalled from my Vauxhall Astra and added to my new petrol car?

2. Is it easy to do? How much would a professional normally charge? I'm not a handy man at all

3. Any ...

Thanks for your reply. I think you're right, especially due to the fact my engine is smaller. Plus I've just seen a comment in another thread from a guy who recommends Autotech. Think it might be time to part with my cash...

Astra 1.6 MK5....should I go for LPG?

Thanks for the reply

I've got a quote for £1,560 for BRC system from green fuel

However a chap on another forum said that was a bit cheap. The Prinis system is the one to go for.
