    Definately not a Ford/Tickford then as they were all a Vialle system.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    Just another aftermarket install, making the LPG read on the petrol tank is an old trick as LPG sender units are made to suit a wide range of OEM fuel gauges. It's no more complicated than having a relay switching the senders when the gas is powered up.

    Still typical of every Fairlane I've owned, the fuel gauge is acurate to +/- 50%.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    My gauge was very good, probably due to it being a Tickford conversion.

    The Hi Ace dual fuel/LPG guage is great as well,although sometimes after filling up it takes a while to react and go to full.
    Best LPG guage i have seen.

    Tickford used the same "Axiom" brand LPG senders everyone else used. Senders are a wear item and usually need replacing around 100K to 150K to be reliable.
