Does anyone know how easy this is to do . What about the cost of a kit there must be a cheap way of doing this .
How easy to fit LPG kit on series 2 1/4 petrol wots involved??

from what i know about lpg it should be fairly easy if you can find/make the right adapter fer the injun. but i suspect you'd be better off fitting a 200 doosul and running on tesco's finest

Been looking / thinking about this myself.
Theses guys do a DIY kit for £440.
Tinley Tech LPG Conversions - LPG questions, LPG advice, LPG FAQ, LPG Frequently asked questions
Fitting a doosul only makes sense if your current engine is knackered and you intend to run Veg oil.
If it's a doosul you want then have a look at the 2.5 lumps with out a turbo caus i think they will bolt on to your series 2 GB.
Plus the added advantage of a LPG kit is you can always move it on to your next landy.

- Where the winches aren't.
Or try to find a knackered LR with an LPG kit already fitted (pref with a V8, but then I'm biased ) then canabalise it into yours.
They do come up from rime to time & it's not a bad way of doing the job economically & yer git a bunch of spares to boot.

How bad are the 2.5 d N/A i know the 2 1/4 is sh#t my friend had one and god it was slow. Do fancy the idea of extreme wading.Could fit twin tanks and run on red then switch to tax paid.

You say about staining the fuel lines but they only dip the tank. If they didnt notice the left hand tank ,if youv'e got a normal filler neck are they gonna start lifting up seats. Saying that i don't know anyone thats been dipped.

They wont have to caus if i was plod i would take a look at the galss bowl of the fuel lift pump.
Or the inline fuel filter.
You would be better off runing svo/wvo caus you can use up 2500ltrs per year without incuring duty.

OOH that's a good idea. I bet no one in HMC&R has ever come across a second tank before. Or double skin tanks with a small amount of normal diesel in the outer tank. and the rest of it filled with red, or people trying allsorts of other weird and wonderful devices to try and fool them.
