That's in the old days, with a crude mixer system. Tell you what, you have a drive in the Disco and if you can tell the difference you can keep the car.

see, fr high mileage stuff, fair enough, but given that if I ever actually get the FG on the road again it'll do, maybe, 2000 miles a year, if that. As is it's easy to get the fuel consumption down to 4MPG, and that was on rewd blooded 4*, when you could get it everywhere.

So to recoup the cost of fitting an LPG system would take fucking years! and somehow add more than is absolutely required. I like to keep her simple, the only mods I ever fitted (so far) was intermittant wipe, and a gearbox pressure guage.
I like it as near original as possible.

Yes and no.. I plan to eventually fit disc brakes on the front, and think I've found some that will suit the stud pattern. So externally it'll look the same.
On the rear, I'm actually tempted to fit 420 brakes, if I can work out how to make the drum suit the 5 stud hubs...
