dangerous brain Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Just search your area for an approved LPG installer. Simples. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=lpg+installer+essex&sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-GB:IE-Address&ie=&oe=&gfe_rd=cr&ei=5J1FU62CDaTY8gf494CADg Find out what availability there is in your area/route to work first though.

Havard Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yep, my old NA had it already fitted but I seldom used it. Just carried a big empty cylinder around for 17K miles.... I only know of 1 company that fits them these days but they are in Bolton. Must be some "darn sarth". I heard some horror stories when I had my LPG. Brendan who bought it off me 4 years ago has run it on LPG all the time and been to the moon and back in it. Good luck. H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I had a gas system installed on my VVTi TT mk2 aristo and that ran like a peach and in fact still does to Poland and back with Konrad on this forum at the wheel. It's a very sensible install if you have easy access to a gas supply and smash some miles in. If not an utter waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) I had it in a Range Rover and it worked a treat, big advantage though is you have the space to fit large tanks. I'd guess on the supra it would be a round tank where the spare sits and possibly be not that big, from memory you can never get all the lpg out of the tank and on my 100 litre tank could only use around 80 litres so if you have a much smaller tank the range isn't going to be great. Do the maths on your mileage and it's pretty easy to see how long before you've paid for the kit and install costs. 10,000 miles at an average 20 mpg = 500 gallons unleaded = £3000, lpg = £1589 on average prices Also bear in mind you get less from lpg than petrol but not sure on the exact numbers Edited April 11, 2014 by Dnk (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibby Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I am getting a good solid 270 to 300 miles a tank from my car. costs me around 45£ to 50£ to fill up and every 3 weeks I throw in 5£ petrol. a full refill on vpower would be around 107£, I am not down on power as people always think. Drives good, plenty of power. Get a decent conversion like DBs / Konrads and you wont have any hicups on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
