fe months agow


hi wayne i asked the same question a couple a months back and to sum up ,some say 22 some say 25 some say 28 some say..... so i found the best thing to do is fill the tank and when it gets to half way fill it again and work your van like that

its all in the owners manual that comes with the van!

lots depends how you drive / what van / how its loaded.

i used to get 27 from my 4 speed 1.9dg hightop camper fully loaded 4 people.

dont go over 60 for best results!

currently in my 1.9td i can get 450 miles from a tank before i need to refil - one day i will let it run out and see how many in total!

hi, so what does yours do, also filling up adds weight, ive noticed a big saving by reducing weight, i used to carry a spare gaz bottle, just the one now, make sure the tyres are well inflated, mine is the 4 speed box, praps be better with the 5 speed box, so i just put £40 quid in and go as far as i can, does the t25 run ok on lpg, ive allways thought it wasn't cost efective - but the price of petrol as changed my views on that a bit

so at 25 i'm about right give or take, shame really i think i would use it a lot more but for the cost of fuel, for me to go to say devon or cornwall well it would be cheeper to go in a hotel, so i tend to go sites that are 100 miles from me(south of france, ive just got back from blackpool)(

Worth thinking of getting it converted to lpg.Thats what a lot of us with petrols have done.

hi, so what does it do on lpg to the gallon, and how much did the conversion cost, also the powers that be are waiting for me to convert to lpg then they will tax it to death i bet

Heres the price list from gasure.http://www.gasure.co.uk/saleswbx.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
You get a bit less mpg.But its still well worth doing.If you use your van a fair bit.

The tank can go in a variety of places.. mines under the bed., I lost a small amount of storage... but I have saved THOUSANDS of pounds over the last 7 years.... well worth the loss
