Autogas Conversion

Post by wjp01908 » 24 Apr 2006 06:18 pm

I`m seriously considering doing an autogas conversion on my 340 - I seem to have an idea that there was somone one the boards who had some expertise in this area (sorry I`ve not been around for a while) and would be grateful for some info on possible costs for kits, whether anybody`s done it on a 340 and how it worked out.

My car is an 88 1.4 with no cat so I imagine that it would be fairly straight forward.

Any possible drawbacks apart from not being able to use the chunnel?....
You only need two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and
it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

The 1.4 for is simple enough. If you want to do it yourself and have good mechanical experiance then it would be possible.

There a few pictures of Vicky's car on LPG so you will be able to see what things look like.
