dont remember mentioning stockings?
well teflon mate its like trying to knit fog this but hey what do we know.
Hi All
My first post !!
The general views always seem to be that diesel is best for towing but I would also like to consider a petrol with a [good] LPG conversion.
Anyone towed with a RR 4.6 with LPG ? How were the hills ?
Thanks all
Just look what you started![]()
Would have been interested to contemplate it; but Hey, I've only provided 'opinion' on here, not 'facts', unlike our clerical freind, who has provided opinion CLAIMING it to be fact
I dont hold anything against deisils either; though I would defend Land-rover's efforts.....
i didnt realise that to use this forum you needed an english degree , or is it just you trying to prevoke an angry reaction with more stupid remarks.When I mentioned 'fact' what I meant was 'Bloke said down the pub so it must be true' For someone who knows such a lot about 'deisils' you really should go back to basics and learn how to spell it! I before E except after C
You must be a good typist judging by the length of your posts. Either that or you have a secretary or one of them programs that types it for you as you talk. Still waiting for some data on diesel v petrol dynamics.
Err... lets have a look at this one:Teflon: So there was an element of truth in what I was saying then?
Well, charts show that actually they dont. V8's have more torque; Peak agaainst peak; TD is making about 300ft-lb, V8 makes 350.Its a fact that diesels have more torque
OK, lets look Low down; at tick-over V8's making 250 ft-lb, TD is struggling to make 100! If ANYTHING curves suggest that its the V8 that has MORE torque, and ESPECIALLY more low down.especially low down.
If you wish me to accept that the date I have found denies that statement as absolutely accurate; Yes. My statement is not supported by the data I have provided.V8's all of them, have more torque throughout the rev range than the TD's so the 'low down torque' of the oil burners, making them better off road or for towing seems a bit of an anathma.
Now, dont take this as being sarcastic...... but, I HONESTLY have NEVER 'got' the fascination with fishing.No the fish out witting is tomorrow. Not difficult. Motor out for about a mile, drop a line over the side with 6 coloured feathers and before the weight hits the bottom there will be 6 fish (mackerel mainly but occasional pollack and cod) on it.
Teflon said:So, I guess, for 500rpm or so, the TD's have, MAYBE, Oh...... 15% more available torque.

These mackerell, first of all, will you eat them? (And will you be collecting a crowd on your way home and searching out some barley loaves to go with them?!)
Becouse that is ONE big thing about fishing I really had trouble wrapping my head round; like, spending hours trying to out wit a carp, with a bit of sweet-corn... getting REALLY exited (for a fisherman, at least.... I could tell, he moved!) at having out witted something with an entirely reflex nervouse system...... then ...... throwing it back in!?!
Yes.........Know anything about 2 stroke triples?
