Title: Current thinking on DIY LPG kits?
Post by: Doctor Gollum on 21 May 2017, 10:41:17
As above... Which Ecu/Vapouriser/injectors?

Appreciate that all will depend on application, but thinking the following with a view to 35/40 bhp per cylinder:

KME Extreme
Hana 2002 gold or A+ Blue
KME Nevo Pro

Probably fed from spare wheel four hole tank :-\

All in good time as this might produce alternatives, and also confirm the Nevo as suitable...

Stag 300 family still available along with tried and tested Valtek injectors, but might not be up to the job/newer kit might be better :-\

If I converted again, depending on application (which makes this thread a little pointless) I'd look at Stag 300 Plus/Premium controller, KME Gold or better reducer, Hana injectors as appropriate (or better).

But, as I said, all moot until the application is known.

Been having a further rummage...

As I understand it, a hidden filler such as this isn't COP11 compliant, yet is perfectly acceptable by virtue of being E marked...

Looking at various certified installs on the lpg forums, these fillers seem to be becoming more common. Has COP11 had a revision?

Grey area... The filler itself is ok but cop 11 says (said) that the use of an adapter should not be required in the home country ::)

If you aren't getting it signed off, don't worry. If you are, speak to them before committing! ;)

If you go down that route, make sure you keep something in the car to help undo the adapter as they get very tight when filling ::)
