Not sure what gunk comes out of a forklift, but lpg burns very clean. Perhaps it's residue from additives some engines need for lubrication, the rv8 will happily run on neat lpg

I've never ran LPG so I can't really comment on it.
For a V8 I don't thinks it that bad on fuel , well it's better than my dads l322 4.4 petrol ,fuel gauge moves more than the bloody rev counter.

Does it make me more brave that it's a 4.0 that I daily drive to work and isn't on LPG ?

That makes a you a die hard land-rover nutter
I go practically everywhere in mine

Just to rub salt in the wounds , I have no lights on the dashboard. ( And no I haven't removed the bulbs)

Didn't know that LPG was still obtainable, can't remember the last time I passed a garage that sold it.
OK in cylinders & better suited to rural gas boilers & fork-lifts

Thought I'd save money by having my 3.9 RRC converted to gas back in the early 'noughties .. bad mistake.
E5 for my 3.5efi plus it likes the higher octane.

Have you checked that you have not nudged the the dash dimming button, you would not be the first to have done it and stipped bits apart before finding out.

Ive just had to go check that , and no still no lights.


Off topic question ,but I don't suppose you would know where the cd multi changer goes in the P38 ? mine doesn't have one fitted and I'd like to add it.

Back story on my car it's a base model no sunroof non everything except air con and cruise control. Does have a high line BECM tho.

there's something else inside the right hand one doesn't look like trailer stuff.
My owners manual says it's under the front right seat , which it isn't. Where it would go in the boot I just have two empty spaces meaning a big boot.
