Just spoke to the guy at lpg gpl. Can't decide if it's a sales ploy or not but he tells me that due to regular failts after 6-8 months, they won't be getting the Stag kits back in!
Need to start again 

Failures of what though, injectors? Vaps?

Considering the extensive use of Stag Kit here, it's proven very reliable I'd say. The only issues being slight lag at high RPM and abuse by some of our more, "lead footed" members.

driving everywhere at tickover rpm levels is no guide on a suitable lpg system

A system needs to cover ALL areas of the cars performance. From tickover to red line.

And actually, they don't tickover too well either. Most of the stag systems have a slight hunt, of varying degrees on the v engines. No biggy, but its there.

It would take more than an lpg kit to make mine idle smoothly

Should have stretched myself maybe before Christmas Al

If we're talking about Tilo, he stopped trading and ran out of actual kits long before Xmas. He still has stock though, injectors, vamps and odes and sods.

Iirc he ordered tanks from elsewhere anyway.


Tried Tinley Tech...?

Find their website a bit awkward, but once I decide what I actually need I'll give them a ring. Not sure they do Stag though 
I need to re read the fitting guide to suss out the Stag setup against what I previously fitted, to check for other components, sensors, etc which I may need?

[chrisgixer]

Yes I have just been on their site and it's not great, nor do they appear to stock the stag kit. But they may be able to get it?

Ac stag site doesn't make it clear who the uk supplier is either.

Re the kit components, any supplier should be able to include the correct parts you'll need. So you as a customer would only need to decide on tank shape/size for the rear end, and which lpg kit manufacturer for your cars number cylinders.
 They might go into which vap (Kme gold) or injectors, but the engine bhp and number of cylinders should dictate all that anyway.

All these questions can be answered on here as to what people have on their cars already.

Yes, thanks Chris. I have the non-working, unknown kit fitted, and was hoping to retain some of it at least. The injectors are fairly new, so is the filter and the tank is fine. Just need to establish if there are any other sensors, etc required on the Stag which may not be present already, or vice versa.
Email sent to Tinley, and to some of the eBay suppliers, to ask if they can supply individual bits rather than full kits?

Ah i see. Sorry. Fingers crossed then

No need mate. All comments and advice more than welcome 

[jonny2112]

No word back as yet from main queries, though a few bay sellers have stated only full kits can be supplied.
This one states it has a gold reducer, with stag ECU and loom - 121020790516
Any thoughts about it? I know other similar kits were discarded, but this does have the uprated vap?

There speaketh a man with the inferior 3.2. No idle issues whatsoever on the superior 3.0l engine, despite running so rich at idle the trims get hard pinned so hard, they never recover

[05omegav6]

Yup that 3.2 is so inferior, you can change the plugs in about 15minutes

Depending on how the lpg kit has been fitted of course

Came across this supplier the other day while pricing up an LPG system.

They're about the same to change plugs, what you gain on the 1/3/5 bank on the 3.0l you lose on the 2/4/6 bank.

The 3.0 with the old black single feed vap, older injectors and single hole tank with older stag kit that lags, you mean.
Bit of hunting or lag. I'll have the hunting thanks. Or eventual hunting, to be more accurate. Its nout go do with the car. I had your kit on my other 3.2 don't forget.
