Could you provide more information on the LPG kit? What kind of mpg should I expect out of a B19 carb and is it possible to DIY fit? How big is the tank, (both capacity and external dimensions), and where is a good place to fit it? I'm very interested, although don't have anywhere near that much cash spare for now. Where is fuel in cans (ie: duty free) available? Have you taken it on a ferry?

Sorry for so many questions!

No problems going on the boat, my old man goes over 3 times a year or so.

At pump price under 40p a liter you should see at least a 50% fuel saving

Yes you can diy fit, I can supply you with full fitting instuctions and a 9-9 support line. The 360 is a fairly simple one to do.

Fuel is available in bottles as you should know but is not simple to
transfer into your tank.
Dont worry your engine will still run on petrol.

How big is the tank? Is it at all possible to fit outside the car?

To avoid taking up iside space you can fit a tank in place of the spare wheel. It is about 50ltr if I remember correctly. It would be possible to go bigger by raising the floor or lowering the wheel well.

Dai

This may be a stupid question, but where does the spare wheel go then...

Ok if you go to the back of your car open the tailgate then lift the carpet on the bbot floof you should find a big hole hopfull with aspar wheel in it.
If you didnt know you had it you should not miss it.

Dai

LMFAO

I meant where does it go if i fitted a tank there

Doesn't your 300 has "run on flat tyres"?

You can use a can with compressed air and some tyre sealing stuff in it...
Who needs spares!

You can just leave it in the boot or not bother with one.
The other option is to use a 400 series space saver.

So
me ppl do not bother to carry one but I prefer to as you never know what will happen.
Oh the other option is a can of that tyre infater stuff
.


Dai

I'll have to look into this, I'm sure a space saver wheel can be stored under the car somewhere, (maybe under the spare tyre housing?). Have you got any instructions to give a guide to whats involved. I'm keen but not going to have the cash for a while. What happens about an inspection/certificate?

I would be happy to inspect at a meet.

Dai

I think a local inspection would be needed so my insurance is valid. Does it effect insurance cost?

Should not make any difference to insurance.

Norwich union is very good

Dai

Good, I'm with norwich union

Won't have the cash for atleast two months

Dai mate how is the development on the top mounting for the front struts goin? As this is the first bush i need really that and some lowering springs. Oh have you done poly bump stops for the front yet or not?
As for the top mounts if yours will be cheaper than volvos or even the same price i would rather go for the polys!!!
