Re: Tow Vehicles...
Don't know about rust, but, it will destroy the paint in no time, I had some on my old Landcruiser, and the next day, the paint under the bat shit was crazed and almost white.

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Will get the bat poo off tomorrow, she is drinking 26L 100km of urban driving, 19L 100km highway on LPG, im getting 168km highway, 123kms urban to a full tank of LPG very relaxed driving with the odd squirt here and there but no full throttle
Air con is really bad barely works so havent been using it those figures above are without air con
Doing a unleaded fuel test now looks impressive so far used probably 1/10th of a tank for 40kms will report back
May be something wrong with the LPG a leak possibly

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Looks like i may be testing the old girl out sooner than later, as mentioned my mum is going in for a operation and she cant come home untill we move so its likely i will have to get a permit to tow the old girl a couple suburbs over as i couldnt find a towie willing to tow the 2.4m wide at the axles load

Re: Tow Vehicles...
TRPM i'm starting to believe that i have done 50kms on unleaded and the gauge has moved 1/4th of 1/4th or 1/16th on the gauge where as on lpg i would be down at 1/2th a tank by now

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Old school 5.0 EFI V8s would get better economy than an AU 6 ...IF you had a light foot. I had an AU series 2 5.0 wagon. Ugly but unkillable. Barra's changed that.

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Why won't anyone tow 2.4m? that's perfectly legal

Re: Tow Vehicles...
you can legally tow a 2.5m wide caravan, what's the difference?

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Too afraid to tow illegally for a couple of suburbs, the authorities really have done a job on us haven't they?
Not knocking you gazza, simply noting how much things have changed over the years.

Re: Tow Vehicles...
I was told 2.4m wide drive train is too wide for the tow trucks i called they were also concerned with the over hang from tow hitch receiver to wheel base on rear axle they also questioned the overall height once on the tilt tray

Push the boat onto the grass and whinch it under a car trailer
Move the boat trailer a second time on the same car trailer

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Fed back in the late 90's i was busted a few times driving without a license even tho i had no license i was disqualified from owning a license for 3 years as i was a habitual driver i had over $5500 in fines i eventually paid off than got my learners and got busted by a couple of cops on push bikes they let me off tho and i got my P's than gold license i havent had a car fine since 2005 when i took my P plates off to sit on 110kph going to wollongong beach
But yeah im a law abiding person now.. havent had a at fault car crash since 1998 only two accidents since than and both other drivers at fault
Last thing i want is to be busted towing the old shagged trsiler unregistered and no permit i will tow it with a permit just to cover my ass if i have to but i will be shitting bricks...

Re: Tow Vehicles...
Must have a gas leak check this out
Lpg 160kms 35L of lpg cost $26 to fill up (highway mileage) 21L/100km $16.77 per 100km
Lpg 123kms 32L of lpg cost $25 to fill up (urbane mileage) 26L/100km $20.77 per 100km
Unleaded 129kms 18L of unleaded $25 worth (urban mileage) 14L/100km $20.30 per 100km
Not really worth running it on lpg
