Yea, my 253 HQ gets the same MPG as the Pajero. Three LPG conversion places told me it would be false economy to go to gas. So I didn't.
Having said that, your fuel consumtion sounds really crap!

Yea Doug, regardless of the physics involved, it would appear that driver error was the cause of the chain reaction that resulted in the Pajero not being right way up.
