gas injection for td42 diesel

[KROOZA]

Unfortunately i haven't had the car long enough to be able to give you anything worthwhile. (Around 2 weeks).

I remember seeing an internet site that you could plug your fuel fill in litres, k's done, price paid etc...and it would keep track of it for you.

Anyone have any idea which site i'm on about?

I have a 1999 GU TD42 NA
it had the Diesel Gas setup in it when I brought it in Feb this year
from what I can gather from reading all over the place.... its not very helpful to a NA engine, but, much better on a Turbo'd engine

I had mine Dyno'd the other day
while on Diesel only, it was doing 88Kw & 257Nm at the wheels
on Diesel & gas, it was 92Kw & 273Nm at the wheels

not a vast improvement, but enough to let me know, once I get it Turbo'd, it will be a heck of a lot better

cheers

Hey col,i would seriously consider doing your rings if u r going to turbo this engine.I have heard that a n/a engine that has a after market turbo bolted on it has a greater chance of meltdown as the rings have not been designed to cope with the extra load.Can anyone give info on this subject???

IN addition to my 1990 GQ 4.2 Diesel Nissan, I have a 1967 Landrover Ser11A. It is fitted with dual fuel. The tank sits behind the bulkhead behind the two seats. My mechanic inspecting it said that we would have to fabricate a box to enclose it. A few weeks later two mechanics from the Roads and Transprt Austhority came out to inspect it. This is not usual, but occasionally the do spots checks. I mentioned that we were in the process of trying to figure out a box to enclose it, but the guy said it was fine as it is, The valves, etc are in a modern high pressure container and it vents out of the cabin through a pipe. He said my mechanic wasn't up to date. That was easy 7-8 years ago (the rotten thing probably needs a big check up, it has to be 10 years old now.

Hey Lad's,

Does anyone have any diagrams/schematics or any info they received with there "D-Gas" branded diesel gas systems that they share with me?

I am trying to figure out what goes where and why on my "D-gas" system.

Cheers

thats interesting, im sure it works the same with a turbo as without?

What is the economy like, my td42 uses 13-15, what would it go down to and how much gas would it use?

I've never heard of this system before, but can see the benefits for the emissions regulations here in British Columbia. However, I am still unclear - do these systems (diesel-gas) use the same amount of diesel, plus some LPG? So effectively using more fuel? Also, how about wear and tear on the engine - does this reduce engine life, or does a cleaner burning engine actually increase engine life?

You get a higher power output, so if you still take say 20 seconds to get to 60k from 0 you will save fuel as the go peddle won't be depressed as far..
If you keep putting the go peddle to the ground you will still use the same amount of diesel, just chirp the wheels more often...
