Righto all. Im gonna do it im going to convery billybong to lpg. The lpg thread appears quite old now so ill ask. Does anybody know anywhere in west mids/staffordshire who do conversion please and contact details and prices would be a big bonus. Ooh its a 2.5v6 btw. Thanks all

I had my Estima and V6 Alphard converted by a registered UK LPG autogas guy close to Junction 10 M6

V6 fitted with a Romano system and Flash Lube around £1200 ..

Thanks bud

Dunno if you got your Cam belt changed .. but the same guy quoted me £150 labour for my V6 Alphard .. plus parts at cost ..

Cam / crank seals are well worth getting done at the same time ..

Hi bud sorry to bug you again was that place in willenhall? Just had a quote £1700 including cam belts

Looks like it.

Yes that's the one ... if you use him (Boss is Abdul.. dunno what the big 'Polish' guys name is) mention Mike from Walsall passed yo on ..

It's been about21/2 years since he fitted my V6 Alphard with a Romano system for £1200 ..(but still maybe haggle with Abdul ??)..

He didn't do the cam belt as there was a sticker on the cam belt cover saying it had been done at around 100.000 Kms in Japan ..

Strangely I had a problem last week at the JDM show at Castle Combe when I struggled to fill up with LPG ..

Took it back Monday .. no hassle fitted a new gas valve free of charge ..

Dunno if you have been to the workshop .. maybe small but they certainly have some up market cars in there ..

Thanks for that. Looking 1700 inc can belt kit. Planni g on popping in next week for a chat

At that price he should fit Flash Lube for you as part of the Job .. (get him to fit it under the front bonnet ..not in the engine bay.. bottom right blue cap) ..



Maybe worth getting the cam shaft seals done at the same time as it's only a few minutes to hook them out while doing the front end ..

Also get him to fit the largest LPG dough nut tank as possible .. with my V6 Bongo I easily got 75 litres in .. With my V6 Alphard i struggle to get 55 litres in ..

He said 72L tank and yes to flashlube and cam seals. Cheers bud you have been a great help

My tank held 75 litres of gas winter and summer ....

Allowing for gas expansion it must have been over 80 litre gross capacity ..
