Just fitted my LPG kit and......
« on: 05 December 2007, 08:59:03 »
All the rather garages in Plymouth and the surrounding area as of sunday will stop selling LPG   >:( >:( >:(

the local council and government want cleaner fuels to be used, we spend a fair chunck of money doing the conversion and then the greedy pertol companies complain that there is not the take up on it.... :-/

It is still in its infancy for crying out loud, and now no one in Plymouth will not have their cars converted because the supply of the gas is not there.......

Fuming i am, totally spitting feathers  >:( >:(

Do any taxi's run on LPG down there?  Ask where they will get gassed up.  Round my way, there is an independant supplier of all things gas - welding, domestic heating etc - who also battles with the local Asda pricewise and most taxi's fill up from him.....

What a nightmare!  >:(

break 'em. Get a bulk tank installed in your front garden and sell it yourself and any other passers by.

Go to the one you normally fill up at and blockade it.

Say you are out of fuel and waiting for it to refill.

No just Plymouth, they blame a low take up in the fuel.....for crying out loud things like this take time to get going......

So the moral is, if you have a LPG powered car make sure you have enough to get you past plymouth and into Cornwall.........

Will, sorry mate i have just got the bloody thing going well, it aint getting sold yet  ;)
