Re: LPG Gas issues

Renzo landis have a common problem where they leak gas from the control solenoid mounted in the centre of the converter. They can leak enough to empty the converter so there is very little gas available when needing to accelerate, hence the stalling under accelaration. It is easy to check by ...

Re: D90 Lpg tank cost?

Do you need a D90 or a D90N? D90N is more commonly available and it has the brackets welded to it.
I do have a unbracketed D90 which needs testing, has some surface rust but I think should pass.

A few years ago I bought an A Frame & braking system from the US to tow my GQ behind my bus which is a 10 ton Hino with air brakes. The braking system consists of an air ram that attaches onto the seat base in the towed vehicle and pushes the brake pedal. It is supposed to have enough force to push ...

Don't know the brand name now, bought a few at the 4WD show a couple of years back at $35 each. They are 3" diameter, metal body and glass lens. They take a H3 globe and make a great reversing light. Unfortunatley haven't seen them since except for plastic copies.

Looks like the tank is missing the Solenoid/ plunger assy and also the inlet and outlet fittings. That tank has been retested but it is possibly due for its 2nd one? The gauge sender on that one will run a standard 90 ohm style gauge and they are available in a lot of types including Nissan in-dash ...

Sidek multivalves certainly don't blow up. With most multivalve tanks when they need retesting , the entire valve is replaced due to the fact that the relief valve can't be serviced. There are a couple of exceptions with some multivales having a removable relief valve. Check the date on your tank to ...

Donut tanks apart from very late models all come with a single multivalve which do cost $220 + to test.
