LPG Install
« on: January 11, 2014, 09:05:59 PM »
Once an lpg system has been installed can you legally relocate it? just need to move it further back in the truck to allow for the rear bench seat to be refitted.
 install has poorly routed control cables which will are not level with the floor and pipe work is not brilliant either.

You might want to think about fitting a relay to the jeeps fuel pump, if you still have the original tank in place. The installers don't tell you but it will using LPG the petrol pump is still trying to pump and in the long run it will bugger up :icon_sad: :icon_sad:

Mine always starts on petrol and changes over to LPG once it warms up a tad. It has a 25L Petrol Tank and 55L LPG Tank. I just top the petrol up when the Low Petrol Warning Light on the dash illuminates.

It does tend however to run rough on the petrol when cold and seems to misfire but once it switches over to LPG away it goes like a train.

I wonder why some lads call LPG the Devils fuel when it only costs 69p a litre and saves a fortune.
