Your working with gas - through a diaphragm into your intake system, plus wiring up the system that turn off your injectors.

That answer your question? :wink:

But as a safety reason only.... Get a professional on the job  :smiley:

You will have to declare it to your insurance company, they will only accept it if you have it installed by somebody who is qualified to do so and will have to provide a certificate.

It is definitely not a DIY job and from the research I have undertaken 75% of 'professionals' who install LPG kits don't known what they are doing.
