LPG conversion for 99 VX Prado

Hi, Macca
Not the same vehicle but we gas a gas system installed on our 3.5lt v6 Pajero.
For the sort of travelling we do( outback) & for the lack of economy & power on gas, we found it was a bad decision. We also had a lot of problems with backfiring on gas, where it ran perfectly on petrol.
I have since had it removed & installed long range & auxillary petrol tanks (total 210ltrs). I have never looked back.
Sure the fuel costs of our trips are more than they would be on gas, but we travel into the outback a lot & you cant get gas out there anyway.
These are just my opinions.
Good luck whichever way you go.

I agree with Paul. You have to sacrifice your main 90 litre tank on the Prado, and keep the 69 litre sub. Cuts your range a lot.

Then you have potential problems of how well it will run on LPG, and reduced economy. Then you have the withdrawal of LPG subsidies to happen over the next 4-5 years. And LPG converted Prados don't hold their value as well. The V6s are pretty economical on the highway provided you don't floor them or fit a roofrack.

Thanks guys for the info. I was thinking of the coversion as we just bought a 17' caravan and was not sure how the economy would be towing it on petrol versus gas. I think I will stick with the petrol.
