Wondering if anyone can help me...

I'm wanting to know what fuel consumption I can realistically expect if I
convert to lpg. Vehicle (AU2 Fairlane) gets on average about 11.5l/100k on
petrol.

thanks in advance...

I use about 15 / 100 on lpg in an el with 400kg or tools and ladders .
its still about 60% of the cost of petrol ( shite all eh? )

Don't know if this helps but a mates got an AU11 with factory fitted
duel fuel and on a trip he easily gets over 1000klms if he uses both
tanks.
The Fairlane might use a little more since its heavier.
Expect to use approx 20% more LPG than petrol.

consistent low 14's

The work VU ute gets low 13's
