Its never given me any problems in over 50k miles. Cost was Ł1000 fitted, which included a loan car for 3 days whilst the work was carried out. I was using the car on company business for which I was paid a car allowance and mileage allowance, so I recouped the cost in just a few months. As the 2.6 uses a K-Jetronic fuel injection system, it wasn't possible to fit an injector system, which would have been much more expensive anyway (around Ł1750 fitted). I get around 23-25 mpg average, so probably a slight reduction in fuel economy, but it's still a lot more economical than petrol. Main drawback is losing the spare wheel well to the LPG tank and only being able to cover around 230 miles on each tankful. Suggest you do as much research as possible before purchasing a compatible system rather than having it fitted professionally. Hope this helps.
