Well that seems to have answered the question, mix it in the same tank. If it were me I'd follow the advice of buying Bio to play safe. No point in killing it just to see if you can. I am seriously thinking of fitting LPG to my 300tdi since Allisport uprated it last year. It goes really well but...

Many thanks for the advice on mixture rates Wilbur. I believe the most important question was how easy is it to mix the diesel when using two tanks and (yes) I think he's talking about using (Tesco) sunflower cooking oil in one of the tanks. I also think he is installing a heater. To avoid...

Has anyone got experience with fitting and running three types of fuel on the same vehicle. I know someone who has a tdi and fitted LPG. He's now considering fitting a third tank for veg oil. I believe he aims to run the diesel with an equal mix of veg oil and introduce a 15-35% mix of LPG. If...

Not if a right hooker hits you

You can always bring your disco up to spec by filling out the chassis with reinforced concrete for ballast, bolt railway sleepers around the shell for side impact trim, use RSJ's front to rear for a roll cage, mount rockets and chainsaws as anti-theft deterrents. The disco will easily take the...

Try this, find a car park with plenty of room to turn. Select low gears and drive a few yards back and forth just to prove your in low gears. turn the steering on full lock (right) and drive forwards. If your diff lock is engaged then you will feel and hear the outer wheel skipping on the...

I don't suppose it's the waste gate?

Hi, the alarm and immobilisor are two different units. The immobilisor is operated by the main ECU and can be turned on or off by a LR dealer. If it's switched on which it sounds like it is then it operates automatically every time the ignition is turned off and the fob removed from near the...

Hi, if you don't get a suitable response send me a PM.

Just finished upgrading my suspension for towing so have perfectly good standard springs & shocks left over for anyone who wants to collect them from Bedford. They're from a 1997 300tdi with only 44k and other than worn rubber bushes appear to be in good condition.

I have the label fitted in my 97 300tdi auto. I can select Diff lock by pushing the lever over to the left either in normal or low ratio which is selected by moving the lever forwards. It advises that the vehicle should be travelling between 0 - 5mph and neutral is selected during the selection.

For that money consider looking on AutoTrader, I just found 8 vehicles 1997 -1998 with less than 60k miles for under £5k

I don't trust garages that's why I started my own. No don't ask I'm retired. Here's a websit that supplies lots of bits. Tinley Tech LPG Conversions - LPG conversions, LPG advice, LPG kits You might consider phoning a friend. All the best

Absolutely, without-a-doubt, why did you get a 4.0 ltr petrol, never mind, yes go-for-it. My 3 ltr Merc had a 100 ltr tank and started and ran strictly on lpg and would do it again HOWEVER!!!! are you going to fit it yourself or must you get someone to do it for you, which brings me to the...

I know someone who can stick some wires init and a NAF air flow sensor, will that help? ;) Seriously though removing the CAT and fitting a bigger intercooler really did make a surprising differrence and you could stick the old bits under the throttle pedal to improve economy:D

Hi again My installation was carried out by Allisport the same day, no charge. The chip upgrade could have been done two ways. !st. clip on an accessory however you can get problems (sometimes major) with loose or poor quality connections, upside is you can sell it on although many don't trust...

Hi I had my 300tdi 97 Auto upgraded by Allisport with the following. Upgraded intercooler; EGR blanked; replacement downpipe (remove Cat) & ITG air filter. The difference was highly noticeable and well worth the expense. Then to finish of the job I had it chipped and now its Bl...y fantastic...

I'll vouch for those disc, Just got back from driving to & from Spain and they were great on the Pyranees especially in the cold.

As it happens my import didn't have a factory alarm fitted when I got it. Japs aren't too keen on them. That's why I fitted an aftermarket system.

Cost and possibly upsetting something that works is the downside. Upside is instant power however Allisport won't install it unless you allready have the larger intercooler etc. I'm going over to their works tommorrow to have my 300tdi upgraded. (not LPG) I'll get all the info and post it if you...
