VK LPG conversion

[202vk]

i know this has probably already been answered, but i'm new here
i'm looking to straight gas convert for a 202, EFI
i just wanna know an approximate cost
and benefits and disadvantages of a gas conversion

thanks

Disadvantages it takes ages to fill up with gas, at the current price is it worth it? 45 litres of gas don't go that far the bottle takes heaps of boot space, run out of gas on a gas only car usually requires a tow. Sorry I'm over gas these days.

haha thanks
you wouldn't happen to know the fuel tank size in a VK

if you are going with LPG, I'd keep it dual fuel for the reasons mentioned above.
The 202 is a rather thirsty engine, so you probably won't get very good range out of tank. At least with dual fuel you fill up with petrol if you have to.

Unless you build an engine specifically to run on LPG, there are no real gains in running straight LPG

LPG hasgives a lot less power!

You need a big tank (100 litres) if you want to go for a few k's

i have a 78 litre tank in mine and only get 200k's out of three quarters af a tank still cheaper than petrol but don't know if i will get the v6 connected when i finish conversion.

Agreed on the lack of range with a vapour system on a 202 you'd be better off converting to a V6 or just live with the it as is.
