diesel/gas techknowledgy

Lewjack,

You would not happen to work or be affiliated with these guys? We have had several alerts already to the possibility of this being a free business promotion thread. I know you have used the site for a long time so my assumption is that all is fine however I need to ask so that people stop alerting us to this thread.

Do a search on dieselgas.
Plenty of replies in regard to this website in the last few weeks.

Hi lewjack

See my post last Friday 18/8/06 Post ID: 36897

I received email confirmation, yesterday 22/08/06 that the $2,000 grant applies to my Patrol Station Wagon ZD30 TD so I have booked into get a diesel/gas conversion done in about 5 weeks time.

I am hoping it will be OK, only time will tell.

Regards
Phil

Where can you get it done in 5 weeks time..?? I thought the waiting list was like 6 months onwards..? Can you get it done that quickly in Melbourne..?

Hi Guys,
Is that true about the rebait applying to diesel/gas conversions. If that is the case, I might have to look at it again.

Regards, OM&M.

Keep us all posted on this one, on the results.

All the best
Eric

Hi

I booked in to the Sydney representative of Diesel/Gas Australia within a day or two of the Government's announcement. They offered me a one only space in the last week of September 2006. The alternative was many months away. I am only guessing but perhaps it may have been an opening due to a cancellation. The installer is located in Penrith in western Sydney.

Regards
Phil

Keep us posted on the job and the results, and your opinion. I am seriously wanting to consider this, it just sounds fantastic and the fact that it won't upset my standard diesel setup is a big bonus.

I really like the idea but I think I will be waiting a while before even considering fitting gas to the Cruiser. I am sure there are a lot of reliable installers out there but like a lot of these types of gov giveaway offers there may also be some questionable dealers and equipment find their way into the market especially as there is such a big demand and waiting time. As I have a 500,000 km warranty I would like some endorcement from Toyota. Even though gas/diesel has been around for a long time it always seems when something like this is let out to the general public a lot of problems come to light. Some are already being aired on this site particularly with exhaust gas heat problems with turbo engines and this could be worse if the car is towing. The prices of about $3500 being quoted are only a base quote and there are extras on top of this.
