Default I want to twin engine the cossie

Keep the same motor in front, and fit a little Derv in there for cruising Fookin car i need to get used to bad MPG im not used to it when driving a Derv 99% of the time

Work out i avg about 20mpg not toooooooo bad but when u think i was doing 75-80 for most of it Though i was cruising at about 120mph for 10 mins to try and catch the other fookers up and had a few squirts Is that about avg on greys without close loop?


Close loop i need! maybe next year when car comes back out

Chip i couldnt belive it I was between qtr and half a tank and though i need a splash more to get me home. So only put a tenner in as dont like leaveing the car in the garage with a full tank THe gauge went from that to half Was pointless putting it in really

LPG prices seem to be remaining pretty low, that is looking like a more and more favourable option every day!

Why not just get one of Stu's L8 lamda control conversions and get 30mpg on a run?

30mpg at a quid a litre is still 15p a mile or so by my guesstimate!
