I would like to know of the best dyno place to take my 3.4 l Prado on gas to get tuned, in
Melbourne or western Victoria. Any help appreciated.

Guess it might depend on what you want to achieve, i.e. check power output, tune up, power up.

I am looking for better fuel economy & as much power as I can.
Towing a 15 foot trakmaster van I am getting 34 L/100 k's. Not good!

Maybe a good starting point could be seeing what consumption figures other have with a similar set-up and go from there. Might be standard consumption? if not you know that something is not right, is that figure of 34l/100 LPG or petrol, there are some well known and respected LPG specialists that have dyno equipment and a chat with them could be time well spent.

My lpg gets anywhere from 19 to 26 litres//100 towing or otherwise.
Sounds like you need to get your fuel mixture reset. Dont just rely on getting a tune up done without the mixture setting being checked. Go to an authorised lpg service repairer/mechanic that is reliable. I am in
Sydney so cannot help you down there.
