How do you Fill it up then?

Post by colouredFunk »

Hey, I'm going to be converting to LPG soon, but I just realisd I have no idea how you fill the tank up - Where do you put it in? It's going to be with Gasure, so do they cut a new whole in the body for a nuzzle?

p.s. where have you got your tank, think I'm going for underneath the bed.

thanks.

If you ask Mr Shaw nicely he'll put it (within reason) where you want it. Some people opt for the behind the number plate job ... (but some have had issues when a bike rack's on the back) .. we had a 65Ltr terroidal (upright) tank with the filler on the offside rear wing.

Steve or Pete will no-doubt explain everything. Filling's a doddle and MUCH more pleasurable than with liquid gold :wink:

It has been pumped to the van, therefore you have paid for it!!!

So, you are paying for gas which you cannot have...... :shock:

he'll be behind me, then!! There'll be a riot of consumers demanding the return of good paid for!!!

Never really thought about it before.....but now that it has been brought to light, I am thinking that I could have driven nearly 2 yards on that gas!!!

:D :D
