    For over 20 years I've never worried about what the gauge says. Just fill with LPG and drive until it's empty then switch to petrol and get more LPG so much simpler :beer chug:

    VT 3.8 Removal of LPG system.

    Seriously and you like paying big $$$ for Petrol?? I do understand it's your opinion, I think you've been misinformed about LPG cars running hotter - They don't, None of the factory gas ones i've owned ( 3 ) have. As for power loss the loss is minimal unless your towing max loads.

    What's this switch?

    Thanks guys for the help, it doesn't seem to work at all on the interior or any of the other lights. I will look at the fuse panel as "Dirbatua" has suggested and see if it's been disconnected already.
