Thread: 140Km on 50ltr LPG

Oooh - I had to work that out in L/100Km, and it comes to 35.7L/100Km, which would make it cheaper to run on petrol

Better call up your installer and have a chat.

what sort of economy were you getting out of petrol?

I had a gas injection install done to my D1 with 4.6 and get around 18 - 19 ltrs per hundred towing my camper. It has had some work on the exhaust side of things including work to the heads.

Power is up slightly and economy is at least the same as it was on petrol if not better.

V poor

go back to installer

I have LPG D2 = 22-24 L per 100kms ish

mine gets 260km on 50ltrs. Pat

I came from a holden commodore and got my first Disco a few months ago.

I have done a couple of holiday trips from Sydney to Grafton and my fuel bills were twice that of the commodore with similar weight in the car and a surfboard on the roof.

Everyone told me the V8 was going to be thirsty but, WOW... I think we worked it out to be 17.5 Ltr per 100Km and that was at a steady cruising speed of 100-105Km/hr

I have been following the chip thread and think I need to get my car Dyno tested to see if there is anything that can be done to improve the economy.


I know the problem is not my right foot, I'm the slowest off the lights and always have been, so much so it is a running joke in the family.

Dude if I get 17l/100k in LPG I'm jumping for joy, That's softly softly on the pedal on long highway drives.

55l gets me 250k around town and 320 on the highway and off road all bets are off!

Used to run LPG on my 1990 rangie

Average around town was 220k's for 50 litres and would hit 300k's for 50litres on the highway

Sorta wish I kept it on LPG with the petrol prices now! but had no way else to fit my Engel and subwoofer in the back as the fricken tank took up half the rear space

Camo

the 17 l, is that on gas or petrol

cruising on pertrol should give you 13L p 100k
