Hi any idea on how many ks you get on a litre of gas on 1991 GQ LWB patrol or what the consumption is

mine's a tb42 without LPG, but it goes better when I have gas :-)

Not sure if it likes the fumes, or it is just because the deadweight (passengers) have all abandoned ship :-)

I dont have LPG on mine but use on average 16 -20L per 100Km depending on what sort of driving I'm doing. Expect to use a fair bit more on LPG

Soooo many variables, Cobber... Auto, Manual, How much lift, Roof Rack etc etc and particularly driving style and in your case ignition upgrades, extended rotor buttons etc etc

The EFI's get better mileage than the Carby's I believe so check with any responders that they aren't throwing EFI figures at you

Hi, I have a 90 model LWB, Auto, 33" muds, 2" lift, 10,000 lb winch, duel LPG tanks. I get approx 750-800klm from 180lts of LPG, patrol is straight LPG, but is at the moment still running through a carby and cra#py IMPCO system. Will soon be running straight LPG through a TB-42E EFI manifold, hoping will get better mileage once done.

You definitely should mate. Keep us up to date on the change over.

Hmmm... innovative idea.

My 94 EFI Auto used to get about those figures with similar mods 370 to 400 K's out of 90 litres unless I hit the Beach but I used to drive with a heavy foot
