Yes, it luvverly. You do still need a snorkel though, and removing the sparky tape round the old airflow meter could be a good idea before going off-road I have some spare drainpipe here if you wanna make a snorkel?

Orange Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Will hopefully be going as long as the car is back together in time!! What's all this pointing the finger malarkey, Mr Stumpy!! I only said I thought there was one down the road. It's the one at Glyn Neath I'm thinking of. I'm sure a grown up will be able to tell you where there are several!! The details taken from Multi-map: Glyn Neath Express Address: Neath Road, Neath Port Talbot SA115EW Telephone: +(44)-(1639)-722809 Might be worth a phone call!! I know they do petrol and diesel as that's where Mark and I filled up in March! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Mr Orange sir, I was merely looking for a scapegoat for all us LPGites who will be standing around trying to barter hob nobs for camping Gaz cartridges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protoprincess Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Sorry Mr Orange sir, I was merely looking for a scapegoat for all us LPGites who will be standing around trying to barter hob nobs for camping Gaz cartridges Hate to admit it but unfortunately my RR only does 154 miles from full to empty on gas and petrol combined That's why life giving LPG needs to be as close as possible More LPG tank installations are planned in the future thou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our 3.9 will do 190 miles on 55lts of LPG - that would be the green one which you have seen. The 3.9 bobtail will do approx 280 miles on 90 lts - poor economy due to Grizzly claw tyres, and my right foot ! I do not wish to get into some huge debate about tuning LPG V8's, but you may need to look at yours. Aid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WALFY Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Sorry Mr Orange sir, I was merely looking for a scapegoat for all us LPGites who will be standing around trying to barter hob nobs for camping Gaz cartridges Aid I was educated in this by Bish the other day. Hob Nobs don't cut it any more, the new treat of choice is Jaffa Cakes . I've packed 2 8m ropes to get you near the water :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpy2268 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Do Jaffa Cakes have the same absorbant properties as Hob Nobs ? I can see my nice cuppa turning into some Chocca Moccachino thing with an orangy disc bobbing around in it. - no offence Mr Orange Sir I think 16 metres of rope should be just about an adequate distance to be behind your mobile chip fryer :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WALFY Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Jaffa cakes have better absorption propertys. Whats wrong with orange chocolate flavoured coffee. Could be seting a new trend . As for being 16m behind. You'll be rushing off to the gas station every 1/2 hr won't you :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
