Changing my LPG kit to a different engine...

Post by **Das Wunderbus** » 17 Apr 2006, 10:51

Further to my post in General Discussion - my engine recently went BANG! I'm getting a new one put in, and am going to transfer the LPG kit over. Does anyone have any idea how much this little operation might cost me? Ballpark...

Ta ducks!

I'd guess, seeing as no-one else can answer right now, to get it done is probably 4 hundred ish, but you'd need to know how old the kit was/how it was done etc etc - these things never tend to go smoothly because there's always something needs replacing - and you need a new certificate for insurance, which is not cheap, but essential, and expensive to the converter/person who's name appears on the cert....

You'll get it back in under 3000 miles(ish) though.......

Thanks! Bloody nora - I'd best polish up a second apple for my bank manager then!

Hi ,i had my system changed from my 85 caravelle to a 90 caravelle last year and steve 80-90 charged me £200 . The only sections i needed replacing were consumables ( pipes ,etc ) . Steve did come to me but he has now stopped this and you have to go to his new work shop in north wales . top bloke !!
