Hi I have a J100 - sorry in Burgundy with beige leather seats, its a Petrol/LPG Amazon on a SORN ... ive been in Portugal for a while (still am till July) from memory mines done 135K is a super car, I love it, I would keep it but getting it registered here is a joke - so sale £14,000. if your...

LPG is actually fairly easy to find in most towns in England, Scotland and Wales too. .. your eye soon learns how to spot the 3rd row of costs on the fuel-price boards out side fuel stations. The Hydrogen is a fab solution, other than the H generator its the cost of water, I am sure the car felt...

I agree its a unit, and if MPG is important great - use it. I last filled my car in April 2021 with Petrol, its probably 60% full - the price was then £1.09/Litre for unleaded, locally, now its £1.44, for my interests the important metric has to be journey cost or monthly spend. LPG is sooooo...

Really we should be doing the calculation how much £ $ € /mile .... the MPG is all a bit loose now that there are so many electric vehicles Best wishes

HaHa of course, and thats an old comparison at street prices approx 2+ years back - when paying 65p / litre I have a 120L LPG tank that holds 80L on about all fill-ups and get 260 - 280Miles per tank Re; energy density, agreed BUT you really wouldn't know the difference ... when running and...

sorry to jump in, that is really good 'Howmanygoes' ... I like. I have LPG conversion on mine - so the spare is in the boot, your solution would allow me to stand my spare and giant wing nut the wheel still AND have space for my everyday toot. I agree the pocket hole and PVA has worked well...

Secret? there is none - ask away .... this is the 4.7 Petrol Amazon running on LPG. to help with slightly extra power and fuel consumption there is an ignition tightener installed, and one of those self cleanable air-filters, also makes the engine smoother - no other 'secrets' .... I do not...

Sorry only trying to be helpful and give my inquisitive experience these past 30+ years with these LC's - my basic care solutions - as stated have given me trouble free millions of miles. I am sure as I can be the Petrol V8's never passed 98C and the diesels Maxed out at 90C with or with out the...

the presureised system is really only about allowing the water temp to go beyond boiling point - of that I am quite sure .... this can happen in high load and high heat conditions - but for most normal running occasions the water rarely goes beyond 98C in a good performing car - Diesels normally...

What's NOT good about this?? Its brill, makes great use of space .... not sure why you want 100KG draw runners. I made one for mine with 18mm birch ply, to carry my spare wheel (my LandCruiser is a petrol converted to LPG and the 120L tank hangs where the spare normally fits. I did'nt dove tail...

I am in RUTLAND LE158AP .... if I can help - shout

sorry diesel guys. I left and took up with the Petrol Amazon - its absolutely FANTASTIC- runs on LPG and I have done 120,000 miles on that LPG with fantastic results (I bought at 20,000 Miles) ... I get about 32 - 38MPG at 80+MPH with 5 people in. I regularly travel UK thru France and Spain to...

I would say 100C is a little high ... is the gauge accurate? .... try this, drive the car under loaded conditions with OUT the rad cap fitted, if the water boils over you need to do a fix ... I have a 1920 car that had a high running temp if ever in heavy slow traffic in summer - the cheap and...

Hi I have an italiann system in my 2UZFE, switch over temp is 40 - 45C, taKes 2 mins in cool UK and in snowy winter days 4-5 mins, my car has been FAB on LPG and done 140,000 miles ... I certainly recommend LPG .... PRINZ oil injector is an expensive, polluting over kill on these engines

Embarrassing, Ive had these LC's VX and Amazon's since 1986 and NEVER knew that was a cooler, are they any good? are we talking 4/5/6 degrees C. ?

I have a 2UZFE VVT V8 engine 4100 miles Nr Stamford, RUTLAND England UK What App 07885 860 440

I have always wanted to make a car using the J80 or J100 chassis and running gear and somehow artistically removing the body work down to floor pan. I have a nr new 2UZFE with VVT engine has only done 4100 miles .... its probably a bit powerful and heavy for that chassis, but what a machine...

You have made an excellent job of that well done ... mine had too many stone chips/dents so I carefully rubbed it all down and painted the same as the wheels in a AUDI grey then laqured it, it now also looks pertty good and permantly wet from the supa wet look laqure

I have found the on-line version for the J100 it includes the 2UZFE engine, its very good - its on here .... If you can not find it give me a shout and I will send the PDF file I have So far its helped with taking my heads off, re-seating the valves and I am currently on re-assembly. I have a...

I really doubt that’s true - I’ve certainly never heard it said before I have nearly new 2zfu with auto valve timing if your interested - 3140 miles, just use the bottom end or all if your up for the conversion work - it’s about the best V8 engine Toyota make good luck

I have a full 5 - ALLOY 18" wheels for the Amazon if you would prefer to upgrade .... they are very recently painted too (in Black)

Agreed, there are 2 Cats one each side of the gear box say 12" below the manifold flange - I had 2 new ones fitted with stainless pipe manifold to rear - wonderful job by a Co in Birmingham - great price too - I had the rear slightly be-spoked to alow the LPG tank a little more room - very sweet job

You will not go far wrong, the worst decision is NOT to buy .... they are brill trucks. Mine is a 2005 same engine but converted to LPG - from new ..... you guys pay a fraction of what we do for petrol/Gas best wishes

My experience - these cars are mainly easy and fast to make major swap-outs. You do need bigger tools than for ordinary boring cars. Get the car right and it will easily give you a MILLION MILES of low cost maintenance and high reliability. I have the LC100. 2005 with the petrol V8 converted to...

Hi Guys, I have a wonderful old bus, its been with me for a while, 99% running on an Italian LPG converter, so I buy petrol may be 2 X per year - I travel approx 20,000 miles a year in the UK and near Continent. The engine has been running rough, a compression test shows cylinder 5 is low on...

Agreed, my first check would be the sensors
