Ask Smithy Xtra TE Magna wagon to LPG

I would like to convert my TE Magna wagon to LPG. I reckon I'll have it for another four or five years driving 15,000 km a year. What would be the best system in regards to value for money and efficiency?

The TE is an old model and yours has probably done around 200,000 km based on the kays you do annually, so I would be wary of converting it. The modern injection systems are the most efficient, but I doubt you will find one for the TE because of its age. That leaves an old type of mixer/venturi system, which works well and has done for many years. In terms of payback I would think you should recover the cost of installing the system in two to three years.
