Bought the rear end kit for my LPG install today, got all the bits and pieces i need.
I got a brand new 90L torpedo tank for £105 inc vat :o
Sorry to say i did not use Telio, i found i was constantly chasing him, had to ring him 4 times to get prices (each time he said he would call back, but he never did), once he finally quoted, i asked for an e-mail with the total list of parts, and prices, i would then pay for them. Heard nothing for days, i know he can be busy, but still, felt like he did not want to do business! If it was not for the glowing reports from here, i would have given up much sooner.
I went to Tinleytech for my LPG bits, very good prices as you can see from the tank! The Frame was £30, and the filler £29. Also got all the injector pipe work, water T's and fuel lines. (they are copper but skinned with plastic it looks like)
Got the fuel line to run from the boot, and separate lines for in the engine bay, also got the bracket for injector rail. So all set.
Total cost for parts (front & rear) is £520 :)

Not a bad deal. Polyflex fuel line would have made it easier though. ;)

I was thinking that at the time, but thats what he gave me. (i collected it)
Felt a bit stiff (ooo errr) to move around, so might be a bit annoying to run flat underneath the car :-/

It's bending it up, over and through things that's a pain. Not impossible but not as easy. Worth getting some pipe benders. :y

Copper pipe is a real PITA! But still usable :y :y

Teilo is getting too busy I feel... I know I have had difficulties getting hold of him in the past (but nowhere near the troubles you had :o :o I mean, I only had that much trouble with Jeremy!) but his product and support is second to none :y :y :y
I'd be interested to hear what he'd have charged for the rear end kit... Tinley are normally very expensive compared to him :-/ :-/

Front end kit from eBay £225 (Stag4) - I actually got ripped off, someone here found it for £175 on eBay, all brand new.
Rest of it was from TinleyTech, they do sell front end kits, but they are a tad expensive for that :y

Telio was £140 for a tank (80L), as mentioned i got 90L for £105. I was also a bit nervous about giving credit card details over the phone without a invoice confirmation.

From my experience with him I would say that was probably for the full rear end (Tank, Frame, Straps and filler including fill pipe) and he'd have charged for the back-front fuel line.
As for giving card details... I completely understand that... I was a bit dubious and must confess I monitor my cards a little more closely whenever I have to pay over the phone :y :y

Sure when he quoted me, the frame was extra :-/
Anywho i got about the going rate i feel, with a tad larger tank. All in, costs are still nice and low :)

True... I know my 90L 4-hole was £200, complete with all the fittings etc, and TT want about £215 just for the tank
Mind you, the single hole tanks seem well priced :y :y :y
-
from what i understand 4 hole tanks are only needed when you have 200 bhp+
They also fill faster, but apparently most pumps can't take the full effect, so it was not worth it for me.
One thing i did not realise was how bl00dy heavy LPG tanks are, no wonder you get 20% less to the gallon, 18% of it must be hauling that tank around ;D

You're not wrong there! I bought a 2nd hand 80L one that was still half full off the Bay a few years back... Nearly gave myself a hernia getting it into the back of the Rangie :o :o

beleive you may need a special tool to lip the end the copper pipe? Puts a flair or flange("flange" ;D )on the end to seal the union ( ;D ). Remember seeing something in instructions. Wa hay. :-)
