Ok dont want to sound like a din here but....ive got an LPG system on my v8, but it takes 4 ever to fill it up, its got 2 tanks 1 under each side step, when i fill it up, it seems to take a lifetime, then i discover its not full up, ive got the green ligh thingy in the dash, these show full as in 4 green lights, im not convinced its full tho, it seems to go down rather quick..it starts off quite fast filling then gets slower and slower and slower, any ideas cheers Andy

how long have you had it ,is this a new thing youve noticed,it does take time and does slow as tanks fill as pressure begins to equalise ,can depend on pipe from filler to tanks ,mine was hydraulic hose which speeded,you can never completely fill tanks 80% ish and level sender arent accurate at all in the ones ive seen especially if tank isnt set right for them to work properly

Ignore the lights and zero your trip meter every time you fill up once you've got an idea of your range on a tankful.
I found that the Shellgas pumps filled my old lpg Disco quickest

some early tanks did fill more slowly,though none are quick ,often your filling through very small bore pipe

Wot he said.
The lights are notoriously unreliable, even to the extent mine are on one green light when full and then the others come on as it empties.
