Off to stay in Bright this weekend and will be going up the mountains during the days. I'm aware that I should grab some alpine diesel from the servo and Bright has it but what about my d-gas...should I just turn it off and not try to use it at all for the whole time until I get back into warmer temperatures?

Oh okay...I could have sworn I read that LPG can freeze up or something like that but there's a good chance I've got that mixed up with something completely differentOriginally Posted by rangieman

I've just found some more info on it, looks like it's not going to be a problem.

The only time your gas will freeze is if you loose coolant ect burst hose ectOh okay...I could have sworn I read that LPG can freeze up or something like that but there's a good chance I've got that mixed up with something completely different

AT REST
A D-Gas system (like yours) typically runs a vapour withdrawal cylinder. In the worst case scenario where your LPG was predominately Butane (boiling point 0°C at 1 atm) the pressure would drop with internal evaporation and air temperature, and cease to flow towards the engine. Simply put, your LPG enhancement would stop, nothing more, nothing less. Nothing would freeze. Drive back to warmer climates and it's back to normal.
In any case you wouldn't fiddle with the tap when the simplest way is to just switch it off at the dash switch.
