    Ok, that's some new news for me. Being a carby TB42, then producing an economy above 6km/L on LPG is super efficient then.
    No need to do anything in that case. I wouldn't even worry about Pertronix ignition kit 'cos yours is doing good as it is.

    You need to explain what you meant by "super inefficient", be it about LPG or petrol or both.

    Parts advice

    Got a bit of work done to Bessie today and I need to replace some parts on the old girl.

    Can anyone point me towards a good spares shop or wrecker for quality parts and pricing?

    For 89 tb42 GQ
    Chasing a steering wheel.
    Chasing a radiator fan shroud.
    Chasing a ?Mark Jose (apparently it's actual name)

    Also anyone tell me if the rubber that surrounds the rear/boot/side windows is easily replaced or available... Mines so old it's shrunk leaving half inch gaps in the joins.

    Sorry for the long post.

    Took the rig out for a camp for the night. Went really well with the work i did to it late last month. Thought I'd add a few pics of the old girl. My dad called her Bessie. Big lumbering cow she is! haha

    Also, while im at it. From years of neglect the clearcoat has come off and ive been considering giving it a respray, although im on a budget.
    Ive had a few ideas; complete coat of rhino liner/lineX. respraying myself (with help) to keep the color code. getting a pro to do it but let em know it dont have to be pretty.

    In the meantime, can anyone tell me how to get the rest of the flaking cover off? (as in the bottom pics) try and get a uniform colour out of it. And what color code is the Nissan Blue?
