Hi. My 2.3l petrol LPG will do 450 miles to a tank. That about 85l of petrol. Dont know about the LPG as it hasnt worked since I had the head off it. Just wondering if that mileage is reasonable as it's costing a fortune.
By the way when I did that mileage the back was empty apart from some light tools and did that 450 miles in one journey. Vans got 202k on it

thats an average of Just about 24 to the gallon. would have thought with that mileage its about right as i bet your nearly 2 ton if not a bit more. try and get the lpg sorted then nits the equivalent of about 42 MPG as you lose just a little bit of economy of gas

They are bad. 2.2T according to my local weighbridge. Where can I get a new sump and timing chain cover from as both are leaking oil. So difficult to find parts for thies vans.

Still,better than when the diesel pump fucks up on a tdci.
Yeah,get the gas going,you could get an account somewhere then and they sell LPG far cheaper.I found my grand Cherokee ran better on LPG than petrol.
