I would like to convert my Omega to LPG.  I wondered if any members here have any specific guidance for this car, its a 2000(v) 2.5 V6 auto

[Kevin Wood]

There are some guides to the LPG fitting process in the Maintenance Guides section. Plenty of us have done it so have a look at the guides and then fire away if you have any questions.

Cheers, still finding my way around on here.

The guide for the front end is only for a 4 pot (must do the V6 one ) but the theory is the same

You could always do a How Too on mine

Been noticing it's becoming quite popular on here to convert, I bought mine already done and didn't pay much more than an unconverted one.

Suppose I was lucky but sometimes it's easier to sell your own and buy one someone has already had done. Just a thought!

90% of the cars I have worked on with LPG have been a nightmare..
I personally think it would be a better way to buy a car without it LPG then get someone who has been recommended to you to fit LPG. This way your not buying Crap & Nightmares

Seconded... I'd rather convert a known good car than buy an unknown with LPG which adds many other potential issues

I've got the pictures somewhere already, although a few more may be handy, and just need to do the text (which is basically the same as the 4 pot guide )

Just seem to have been stupidly busy for the last few months

Or LPG a known good car and add some new issues

Member on here, JAMESV6ELITE, set up a business specialising in looking after Migs including doing LPG conversion.  His prices were good and in my experience his knowledge and advice were first class.  I hope to be dealing with him again shortly

on the subject of LPG conversion, does anybody know, would I be able to use the LPG set up off my old 3.5efi V8 Range Rover on my 2.5 V6 Omega?

Unlikely... Was it a SGIS system or mixer?

And, TBH, if you're capable of DIY converting it then a full new kit with warranty wont cost dramatically more than replacing all the parts (like fuel lines, filler, tank etc) which need replacing and recycling the old kit

You'll have to join the queue... I'm not available until October at the earliest (and even then it'll be mid week) and TB is in front of you in the queue

That said... I'm sure we'll get it done soon enough
