Mine stays on four green for about 20 miles then drops to red over the next 20 and then I don't know how far I can go on red but it's a PITA. I've got to get mine serviced soon.

I've been told that they are notoriously **** though even when calibrated properly.

mines a LOVATO system and when i bought the motor just over a year ago i was told not to rely on the 4 LEDs, i use them as a rough indicator but i just reset my speedo every time i refil and I know i can get about 150-200 miles out of it where/how i drive my disco, its also supposed to automaticaly cut over to petrol when the gas runs out but instead just loses about 90% of its power whenever i take it over 3000RPM, i just switch it over to petrol manually and then refill, i alway keep about 1/4 tank of petrol at all times just in case.

Mine is supposed to buzz/beep when the LPG is running low but it kind of makes a whimpering sound for a few minutes and then switches over to petrol.

The little indicator thing really is the worst thing about LPG.

I've had three LPG run cars and have always used my milometer to know how much Gas i have and the LED'S are just an appoximate - also it seems to run for as long in red as it did with all any number of green LED's
