No problem Graeme, nice to meet you and I hope you got back with no further problems.

Right, well the load cover has now sold, but I have noticed that I did actually keep a couple of other things so I also have;

Both front foglights - £20 for the pair.

Drivers side rear light cluster, good condition - £10

The front bumper has gone with the car I'm afraid.

The LPG kit is provisionally sold, but should the prospective buyer drop out you're first in line!

I'm very interested in the LPG kit if it was still available. Is it already out the car?

I'm also looking for the large curved rubber air intake pipe that connects to the throttle body.... also with the black plastic breather connector if possible.

Yes, the LPG system has now been removed from the car and the current buyer has pulled out so it is available again.

Following advice from various people wiser in the ways of LPG than I I have NOT kept the gas lines that run from the tank to the engine bay, nor the wiring that actuate the solenoid valve on the tank. Apparently these are not recommended to be transferred from vehicle to vehicle and any bone fide LPG installer would not certify the car if they were re-used..

So, to recap, there's a 50l donut tank (with some gas in it, maybe 15-20l) complete with filler valve and pipe, solenoid and safety valve, evaporator and coolant hoses/T pieces, distribution valves, 6 injectors and gas lines, wiring loom with changeover switch and ECU mapped for a B6304.

All that needs to be done is run a + and - wire from the connector in the loom to the solenoid valve of the tank, and run a gas line (copper pipe) from the solenoid valve up to the evaporator. You'll also need to drill and tap 6 holes in the inlet manifold for the injectors, swap the coolant hoses over to allow for coolant to reach the evaporator, and find a + and - feed for the whole system.

Price is now reduced to £250 to account for the missing wires/pipes.
