I know it's a shocker! And it's one of the cleanest fuels around!! (Zero NOx) |

Crazy isn't it, especially that the government is clamping down on emissions, thankfully plenty of garages still have availability where I am, and lots of various vehicles are converted here.

I guess with the increasing move to electric/hybrid vehicles, demand for LPG has dropped off? I’m also guessing a lot of LPG cars are getting older and not being replaced with other converted vehicles, when they reach the end of their useful life?

The local Asda have just refitted their station and have made it totally automated. In doing so, they've removed their LPG pumps. Apparently the other Asda stores around about are doing the same over time.

If you have the space have you considered putting in a bulk tank? In a previous job we had lpg forklifts and used a bulk tank with a manual pump but you can get electric ones. 2012 tdv8 Westminster arrived Jan 19 gone Dec 23

I got rid of mine because it was a complete lottery, even those stations which still had it regularly ran out or broke down.
