« on: 13 June 2010, 00:56:11 »
Just wanted to say thanks to Kevin for getting me out of trouble and drilling a fresh manifold. you're a Gent Kev.

Oh - and thanks must extent to Mrs KW for dinner.... it was delicious...  :y

Have made a lot of progress on conversion today - Am hopeful that tomorrow, I will be able to hear it run on gas for the first time :)

Oh - and the install is surprisingly neat... I will take some pictures once complete  :y

All together, bar a couple of connections to LPG soleniods and vap.

Have run engine with LPG fuse out - seems to run OK on petrol, which is a start!

Seems to be idling a tad quick (0.4gal/h) but wonder if this is due to exhaust blockage.

Cuppa time, and out to fit new exhaust!!
