It will use more gas, but it is cheaper :-)

Take it back to whoever did the conversion and get it checked asap. Daryl

Tuning gas systems is like tuning anything else in that there's different types of systems than each have their own peculiarities and need special attention to suit. There shouldn't be anything other than a mildy noticable power difference between gas & petrol on a dual fuel system, but if there is then you need to get it back to the gas fitter and have them tune it *properly*. That's what you paid them for. -- Regards, Noddy.
