Lpg.

The gas tank is fitted where the spare wheel goes in the boot, so not a very big.

 

Steve, when you say a later system, what are you calling later ?

 

Within the last 10 years. I think a 14 year old truck with lpg would be a pain. As Chris said get a multipoint system. We had a 5 tonne lpg forklift put me off for life and used to have to deal with lpg generators. They either would not start as something had seized ( no lubricity in gas ) or they would freeze up in cold weather before the coolant powered heater got going.

One really needs to draw off the liquid, which these tanks are not set up for.

 

The problem would be in overcoming the float valve which stops you over filling the tank, so you would need a pump capable of working in lpg at ~80psi

I've got a 3.9 v8 it's got a single point LPG system on it get a little less mpg compared to when it runs on petrol but at half the price it never does....you have to build speed up more slowly than on petrol if you try to floor it it just dies and if it runs out and your not quick enough to flick the switch it blows the air filter clean off but you can't help but love that V8 burble

Thanks all.

 

I've been messed about on this deal. Yet another eBay messer. I was the highest bidder on the truck when I get a message from the seller telling me that he wants way more than my bid for it or he will pull it from the auction! As it happened more bids went on the truck but, not as much as I was willing to bid. Some poor bugger thinks they have won the auction/truck and he isn't going to let it go because he wants more than the final bid.
