Spot on Diamond.

Never a more profound word spoken.

He is no doubt speaking from module he took at the Terang College of Everything and Anything which he dux'd in 1909. Must have been about then because he couldn't be such an expert on everything otherwise. (ROFLMAO)

Ooooo! Bonz-a-reli you make my day evry day.

hahahaha dont forget I know where you two blokes live hahahahah

Suggest you have it installed and serviced by an Impco expert, Queensland Manager is Warren Leighton Ph 0411475854, and he may be able to point you in the right direction in your area.

Is your 100 a 4.5L straight?

If so how is the LPG tank fitted and what's the fuel economy like on LPG? I wouldn't mind it if they could keep both my tanks and the fuel economy difference was much better but I don't thnk that's the case.

Your experiences appreciated.

Hi Mike-TS, my 100 is indeed the 1FZ-TE 4.5l, 24 valve, inline petrol six with the 5 speed manual.

My tank is fitted at the back, replacing the original sub-tank and spare tyre. It is approx 115l capacity and the filler is neatly concealed behind the factory fuel flap. This gives me 95l of PULP and 115l of LPG. 210l's of go-go juice in total....nice.

To acheive this, the spare needs to be relocated. I have a Kaymar bumper replacement bar with swing out wheel carrier, but there are a number of different options around to suit.

I also previously owned a 100 with the two cigar tanks mounted on the outside of both chassis rails. This setup was good and retained the two factory petrol tanks, but did have two drawbacks. One was the small LPG capacity (70l) and the other was reduced clearance for ramp over angles. I found myself driving a lot more tentatively off-road with this setup than the rear mount.

Fuel economy is soemthing I haven't worked out accurately yet. I have big boots on mine, so the figures will be out anyway. I'd say 18l/100km's on PULP and 26l/100lm's on LPG would be a reasonable estimate.

Talk to a few gas fitters about the 4.5's. They can have a tendency to burn valves if not maintained I've been led to believe, but regular valve clearance checks should go a long way to avoiding this. I also run a drip feed upper cylinder lubricant too (Moreys).

Don't know the exact figures as I said, but I can say my 100 costs peanuts to run now compared to other rigs I've owned. It is also a pleasure to drive.

Hope this helps.
