I am considering a late model 3.9 V8 RRC as a car for weekends, greenlaning and also a trip to Morocco next year.
It's is a 3.9 V8 with an LPG conversion (100 litre tank in the boot).
Firstly, is it true that engines run hotter on LPG than they do on petrol? And secondly, if this is true, do they run at normal temperature if running on petrol or are they set to permanently run on hotter when the LPG conversion is fitted?
Just wondering if taking a V8 (particularly one with LPG) to Morocco is going to lead to all sorts of overheating troubles! The car has done 130k with a good service history.
Cheers!
