Condolances and all(I know whats it like) now get your rear into gear and get back on here, I'm sure everyone on here can help in their own little way

[Poochimama]

Thankyou all,i will definitely visit other Bedsters when i eventually hit the road back up north xox 
Wazza, lets organize a Vic beach weekend away at start March ?? ,every ones already gone away,and you knew a beach site for the next one???

Question-Gas conversion: Now i have time again im considering converting my beddy to gas(Even though gas tanks creep me out),it eats like a mutha and i want to travel and finally have fun camping away but i swear i keep lookn at petrol tank for a hole..its guzzles so much?
Could my brilliant brothers do the conversion or best to go to the professionals?
Cant find Gas conversion links on here except for a turbo 202,mines a straight 202blue/auto/,can anyone find link that would help me please..YESSS i tried to find it warren...lol..just the one link came up for a turbo,surely thr more on how to do it?
If i have to get a Pro in Vic to do it,approx how much would it be and any recommendations of whom?
It hasnt had a tune up since the new reco carbi went inn as yet but cant see the massive diff it needs to make as i watch how fast petrol gauge goes down as drive it..shockn!
Thankyou all,
Shell x

Are you running a highway diff? as that may be the reason for being such a guzzler, Gas is a good option and no you can't do it yourself, running dual fuel will give you heaps of range with a slight comporise as it isn't tuned properly for either I recomend tune it for straight gas and enjoy, if you want it to get up and go there are a few tunnable mixers available such as Gas Research Australia and if you change the cam in your engine to a gas cam you can get more power out of gas than petrol. I spent 3 years travelling around Australia in a V8 4x4 fully loaded towing a heavy tandem axle caravan and had no problems my gas system was Impco

Hey Poochi welcome back. I would not let anyone do the gas conversion unless they were licensed to do so. Like you gas is scary when it goes boom, so  make sure they have a good reputation, and no complaints against them. With gas you get one chance to do it right, and at around 2 to 3 grand to install not a cheap one.

Sounds very strange Poochi that you're chewing through so much fuel - is the engine worked? i actually thought the fuel guage on my new Beddie was broken too, but for the opposite reason! i.ve only filled it once in 4 weeks (dont drive everyday tho) and it only came off the full mark last week. Good ol' 173. Having owned and driven v8's daily for years this is unbelievable!

A bloody good tune up should sort you out before going to the expense of a conversion - i'd try that first.

[Poochimama]

Hmmm...Thanks for all the advise,
ll try the tune up on new reco carbi first then and i asked my brother what diff it is,he said its not original dif..a holden diff with higher ratio so that cant be the problem,the engine was not rebuilt but my bro pulled it apart and cleaned it. Petrfol gauge is broken,it ran out of petrol wn it showed it would!
If you bedsters that have converted to gas think its worth $3000 for a conversion then ill look into that if all else fails,i want to drive it alot, not have to think twice if i can freakn afford too,lol..CrAzY!
Thanks stax for all your imput,so helpful as always...
