    Ahh cool,
    Can you give me a bit of a run down as far as pros and cons etc, reliability, performance, cold starting issues and of course maintenance issues.
    I have only mucked around on other engines with gas, we have a RB30 for transplant and thinking straight injected gas.

    yeah starts fine and runs fine besides that i had an electrical fault with the gas system a few months back. fixed it myself only problem is doesnt run on fuel anymore.
    powerwise there is a bit of a loss and i get about 300km of 20 bucks worth of gas and im not the most fuel efficient driver.
    thats about all i can say really. my engine is very old looking for a new one atm but i wont be going gas only reason been i want the power from fuel and to lose a bit of weight by taking the gas system out.
