I was wondering has anybody converted a petrol Terracan to LPG yet and if so who did you use and is it a success.

Mark as far as i know non so far. As far as I see it space may be a problem. No spare room under except in the spare wheel
well and bugger all inside. Then what will you do with the spare?

Thanks for that Duncan, I have not had any luck finding a kit so far-might have to go for the crdi.

I investigated before buying my Jerry.
Need to put the spare on the back and the Gas tank underneath.
That sounded OK until Hyundai informed me that would void my engine warranty. Gas fitter said no worries I'll give you a 3 year warranty on your motor.
Five year warranty from an international automotive company versus a three warranty from a local LPG fitter.
Any wonder I lost interest.
Cheers,
Jim.

I have been down that path too Jimbo except a second dealer I asked said that Hyundai would honour the engine warranty as long as the damage was not caused by the lpg. Still not sure where you really stand on warranty. If the diesel Terracans are getting 8.5-9.5 l/100km around town I think it would be just as cheap to buy on of them. I was quoted $4000 for the new lpg injection system for a Challenger plus the cost of a spare wheel carrier so I imagine that would be a ballpark figure for the Hyundai too.
