    Landrover Discovery V8i ES 52 plate LPG

    I’ve had 6 Range Rover V8 petrol’s over the years one with duel fuel, I was getting around 13 to gallon on LPG which I was not impressed with plus the engine runs hotter, and as said when you want to fill up you have to search for a garage that sells LPG, I found the LPG a general pain the arse...

    you get 13- 15 max on LPG I get between 30 and 35 per gallon on diesel plus you waste LPG searching for a station that sells it

    Exhaust help

    Not a problem if the 4 ltr has the correct fitting, fit it. I took my centre box out and fitted a flexi pipe in place, the centre box rots in no time can't say as it sounds any louder but it does go a little bit better.

    Spigot will not cause any interference with clutch movement, as long as you fitted the clutch correctly your problem lies with air in the system.
