Thanks Tubbs.Is it also enough for insurers to see too?

Thanx Rossko

Do I take it it`s not a legal requirement to be a UKLPG installer and just being approved after training by Tinley tech I can issue installation certificates and can be registered with DVLA?

Spoken to Tinley tech and they say you get an installation approved certificate after 1st installation is approved but UKLPG registration will need 3-4 day course.Any idea guys how do I get UKLPG certified afterwards?

I`m thinking of doing the training and the closest one is Tinley Tech.Has anyone had the experience and what is their Bigas equipment like?Also is any of the members on here in the position to train and issue an installers certificate?I`m not really planning to do it for living as such but could be ...

I`m afraid the guys are making the point here.You can install and run an LPG system but it doesn`t mean it`ll meet to CP11,therefore to issue a certificate a garage has to redo it and sometimes its less time consuming installing than redoing someones work.

Well done,happy days then.

Spent a bit more time on it today and found a bad connection now seems to be working but didn`t have time time to drive.

That applies to both gas and water temp sensors, btw

You'll probably have to arrange a tap nipple for an external gas pressure sensor too.

Last we heard, this system was working ... what is the expected benefit of spendng £hundreds to make a hybraid system?
The installation was a mess so I ...

Driving the injectors will be your issue. Europegas, KME and Stag are capable of running them
Thanx mate.Just put her back together after painting a few bits etc will see if I can find anything tomorrow.Europe gas is what you installing isn`t it?So ho much am I looking to spend for the front end ...

Keihin oranges mate,what difference does it make?As far as I know they are the best injectors but happy to be corrected.The kit goes to a 2.3 5cyl turbo engine.The installation was a mess so I shrotened the wires resoldering 1 by 1 and now for some reason when switches on to gas the engine cuts out ...

Hi guys.I`m after a front end kit without injector to replace my old BRC flyand the choice is KME,KING and LPG tech.The question is which one is more liable and easy to set up?Help appreciated.

Its more down to what your installer suggests. Provided you keep away from the done in a day outfits who usualy fit a lpgtech or stag system you will be on the right path. Most of the aeb based systems are ok as is europegas, kme or even brc but brc will limit what onstallers would be willing to ...

Bear with it for a day or two yet, if you are really lucky it's just something a bit gummy from disuse and will clear itself.
You could check all the vacuum hoses are in place and in good condition.
Thanx mate.All now sorted.I checked the gas supply etc.and diagnosed the multivalve solenoid had no ...

I hope someone can help me with this issue.The car was running well on both petrol and lpg and before my holiday in august the lpg was run empty and the car is only back on the road today so I went to Shells and filled up with LPG and it was fine in the begining and a few miles later a slight judder ...

How olds the LPG tank ?
I don't think any ones trying to be unhelpful. It's just that we don't primarilly fit BRC. They are a bit of a pain to get the right software. Just because there is so much of it. Millions of versions infact !
I haven`t looked how old the tank is yet but would most likely ...

Just a case of working through it in a logical way. Start with taking some good photos of the converted car, 1 to check that it is done right and 2 for you to refer back to when refitting
Thanx mate.The installation is not the best to be honest,the only thing that is handy is the wiring connection ...

I thought I`d get more help on this.If I could afford I wouldn`t even bother and pay some one to do the whole lot but due to my financial situation trying to save a few quid.Probably will have to sell my pride and joy I guess.

Refitting a used kit can be a PITA, though if they are identical vehicles it might not be too bad.
Work out what's where, and what's connected to where before you disconnect anything ! Don't just pull everything apart and then try and figure out what it all is - over on another forum there is a ...

I have 2 V70R`s 1 is a nice looker and maintained another one needs lots of work but has a BRC fly lpg kit with Keihin injectores fitted.The fitment is a bit tatty therefore if anyone could help with installation info would be great and will be taking it to one of the forum members for inspection ...
