    I notice NO drop in power when it switches to LPG infact the only downside I have found with it is that it is more stuff that would need to be removed if YOU NEED TO TAKE THE HEAD OFF because you have NO compression on 1 cylinder.
    Anyhow.. I have an 80 litre tank mounted where the origanal petrol tank was and a custom made 25 litre petrol tank beside it. Works well because I still have a boot
    IIRC, one of the few downsides of LPG conversion was that it burns hotter and slower. This results in burnt out exhaust valves.
    If you are lucky, this will be your engine problem.
    If it is, replace them all while you are in there.
