LPG Help

[Spinglehoffer1]

Looking to convert a V6 Prado SWB and want tank underneath, looks to be a bit short on space, has anyone done this, any ideas??

Just had mine done three weeks ago - I didn't have the option of an underside tank - I was told that there wasnt enough room so I went for losing one of my rear seats and having ugly tank in the back on the floor. The only other option I had was to have the old fuel tank taken out and a split new tank fitted 20/80. I don't use all the seats so it was not worth the extra costs to have the replacement tank fitted. I wanted range when I go touring so I still have the standard tank plus a 70 litre LPG. You will lose some power as LPG doesn't have the same colorific value - but I can't say I have noticed a lot of difference. What I have noticed is it's a LOT cheaper to run at £00.70 a litre !!!

Best regards
