OK. You may think I am crazy fitting LPG. Maybe I am. But the message seems to be that with Dual Fuel, extra jerry cans, and some planning, we should be able to save the cost of the conversion just with the trip and have a car that we can afford to run at the end.
What type of conversion?
The cheapest is the naturally aspirated type. However some research has put me right off with the risk of backfire. I have a vane type mass airflow meter. I think later models 94 and onwards have a sensor type. My type will blow apart with a decent backfire and risk sucking in metal into the engine. Whilst everyone assures me that with new plugs, leads etc. it is very unlikely, I am not keen on being stuck in the middle of nowhere with a vehicle that doesn't work. After a lot of debate I have decided to run with a vapor injection type of a lesser known brand. If I can get it in before July 31, I get the higher rebate. Much lower risk of backfire and if the system packs it in, at least we still can run on Petrol and get it serviced.
