That's just the luck of the draw i'm afraid, preventative maintenance is key as you know with P38 experience!

Well my 2p would be go for an already converted petrol LPG, faster and cheaper to run than the diesel and a better gearbox...

There will now follow several posts as to how silly/dangerous/bad/complicated etc etc and lots of horror stories surrounding LPG....

Just make sure it has been fitted by an LPGA affiliated garage, and is running well and get it serviced and it will be fine..... Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Worth a look as there are some nice ones out there....

Whatever you decide they are really great and you will love it.... Thumbs Up Pete
