I have been toying with the idea of converting my series iii to LPG.
This would cost over a grand but would reduce my fuel costs if i use her regularly which I intend to do.
The problem is, that most conversion specialists will not touch it because of the carb. Will potentially it damage my engine using LPG?
The other thing is that i do not know the age and mileage of the engine and so am wondering if i would be better spending that cash on a newer diesel engine and having that fitted, as i would then at least know that i have an engine that will last for years to come instead of gambling that the petrol engine will last long enough for it to be worth converting.
What would be a good engine to fit, and what should i expect to have to pay?
