G'day guys
did a big search here in LPG, couldn't find a commendation for utes.
Planning to move over in Aug. and due to the rising fuel prices thinking of alternatives to diesel.
Now I will need a 4x4 tray for a slideon camper and I find Landcruiser HZJ79 (my favorite) Nissan Partol and Mitsubishi Triton (or is this Triton lightweight ?) .
- which of them as EFI can handle LPG best, has less trouble with valves, adjustment between ULP/LPG and best consumption ?
Does anyone has experiences or could show me a
forum, I would be delighted
Chris

I have a triton 3.5l v6 fitted with an lpg injection system, the lpg installation was done by the mitsubishi dealer and covered under the new car warranty as an accessory. I have only done 5000km but found it to be an excellent tow vehicle [i have a 17 ft caravan]
usually get 4.5 to 5km/litre when towing.

hi,
can't afford a brand new ute, but right, the converters should now the engines.
Diesel here in Germany first time ever is as much expensive than patrol, and they say, its because the US is buying more and more diesel from european markets.
I assume they might run out of money and buy german diesel cars because of their rising fuel prices.
Could you name me one of the big converters, I have not a clou, yet. Is there a leading
forum in AUS for that?
