So I figure I have 2 choices... I trade it for something less beautiful but more economical , or I go the way of the LPG.
So my inevitable question is .. is my B4194 engine going to be OK with a conversion? And, if it won't have valve seat problems, what's the best manufacturer to go for?
Many thanks!
These engines do convert ok but I'd still suggest fitting a valve saver system to cover yourself. As to the best kit for the job speaking to installers in your country would be the best start.

Depending on your milage a derv could be the better option for you
