The grapevine suggested that the Zetec engine did not take kindly to running on gas a few years ago. Jim??? Could be worth a quick google.

Unless you are advised otherwise by members with actual experience I think that the best way of estimating the saving is to assume that the fuel consumption on gas will increase by 10% eg 40 mpg on petrol equals 36 mpg on gas then do your pricing eg 4.5 litres lpg at 80 p.per litre = 360 p or 10p per mile If you have good sources of supply local to year and most of your driving is within a small radius you might find it worthwhile to use a small lpg tank and to rely on petrol for long journeys where lpg might be harder to find. On the other hand if the source of lpg is inconvenient or distant the use of the largest lpg tank would be favourite. The converter should supply with an insurance certificate on the installation but it might be wise to check with the insurer you use for the H4 to make sure that they are happy about the possibility of a conversion. It might also be worth asking other uses of lpg to see if they have found that it takes longer to refuel with lpg or whether they often have to wait in line for the lpg 'pump' on forecourts.
