TD42T Gas convert?

Post by Rainman »

G'day

I've been thinking of getting my GU turbo diesel ute put on LPG.
I have been told that it give a power increase of about 38%

Dose anybody know or have done this to a patrol, could you help me out?
I would like to know just how much better they go with it, and is it worth the time and money.

Thanks. :D

From the reports its nothing but good news for Diesel engines.

Depending on which system you choose to use, it can range from 2000ish to 3500ish.

It must be fitted in accordance with the australian standards for lpg.

No one can give a definate answer if you can get the rebate yet from the government for this.
