The impression I get is that LPG has some quirks and traps for the unwary.
I also wonder where the (lead substitute) additive/lubricant would be added to the fuel line.
Maybe GrimV8's engine was one of those that could run on lead-less fuel (for some period of time, at least!)
Thanks guys. Been a good response to my original question!
My good friend Simon Hill runs http://www.angusautogas.co.uk/ up in Angus, in the trade they have an in-line filter that Simon has used on a taxi he recently converted. I have no idea how it works, but it has to be topped up with additive every couple of weeks to ensure no engine damage on a Vauxhall he recently converted.
LPG certainly isn't for everyone, however I wouldn't be without it on my BMW - the savings in fuel costs since I had the conversion done last summer have probably almost paid for the conversion now.
