Re: Are there enough merits for a new LPG conversion in 2024?
Yea BP in Wallisdown near Bournemouth one of my filling points not too far from were I work, just jacked the price up from 99p to 129p. That's insane. Also Hinton admiral also near me hasn't had any since May they haven't stopped selling, they just have no idea when they will get a delivery even if ...

Re: Are there enough merits for a new LPG conversion in 2024?
I'll Have a look, I don't expect to find much in the way of LPG converted cars.
LPG stations tend to close rather than get fixed up especially when refits are done here in the UK. LPG the auto gas type is dying, even though it's still much better than the electric alternatives at the moment ...

Re: Prins how to?
Prins VSI 1. 1 beep LPG off. 2 beeps LPG on , continuous beeping on empty or too low gas pressure until you switch to petrol. or fill up. you can get away with switching and switching back if the gas pressure comes back up or just got low going round a corner near empty.

Are there enough merits for a new LPG conversion in 2024?
I'm in the position of having my regular car off the road, My new clutch release plate fitted by me in feb has gone already and I have little time and will to fix it. all the local garages around me that i trust are booked up so i'll probably get to first anyway.
So i'm on the hunt for a run ...

Re: Bristol CAZ
Yea, what a farce. you have that Scaffolder in London successfully challenging his ULEZ fine in court.
Also I don't think the checkers on the UFL or gov.uk sites take into account the older petrol cars that in many cases do hit the Euro 4 standards.

Re: lpg shortage ?
I think it's also fair to say more people using less stations they will run out quicker unless people give up using LPG first.
I drove past 4 stations yesterday and nothing. it's getting ridiculous.

Re: lpg shortage ?
I think its Flogas and their usual trick of being caught out by high demand due to cold weather again. Calor supplied stations if you can find them seem slightly more reliable at the moment.

Re: Flogas delivery issues

Re: Flogas delivery issues
My Goto station (Ower Services on the A36/A3090 junction ) which isn't that for from and supplied by Flogas, got a top uo since last time I visited on Monday. it looks like at least one side of the fleet services.
Signs of at least some normality but I guess this will vary between flogas depots ...

Re: Shell removing lpg
My local has gone Lymington, and the next most regular station i visit Darby's corner in Poole, scheduled for de-commission too on the 3rd of August. seems the now nearest place to me at Hinton admiral has taken advantage and put the price up to 74.9p a litre.

Re: Prins VSI reducer rebuild question
Just thought i'd update.
Everything is reinstalled and seemingly working really well bar one slight water leak on one of the T-junctions I installed. Just waiting for the diagnostic cable to help me fine tune everything. Really tired now though
