Hey guys
Taking the old mans brumby off his hands and am wanting to remove the dual fuel system from it.
The gas has never worked well and would rather get the tray space back.

Just wondering if it's a diy job or if I need a professional to do it? I've never played with gas cars before so any tips appreciated. I have a new air cleaner housing as I know the current one was modified during the conversion , anything else I'll need?

Just trying to work out where yo start haha
Cheers

Also do I need to let vicroads know or can I just pull it all out and remove the tags

G'day mate, I've done this job on mine. You won't have too much trouble if you have a general mechanical aptitude. It's really just a matter of removing every component that the LPG fitter would've installed.
Things you may need are; a piece of fuel hose to go to carby from fuel line. They usually cut this piece to put in the fuel cut solenoid. Other thing you may need is heater hoses, they usually t off both to feed hot water through the gas converter. You can just use a piece of plain heater hose from one t piece back to the other, I've gone that way myself.
You don't need to notify Vicroads, but make sure you remove the AFRB compliance plate & of course the decals from your plates.
It should perform a lot better when you get it off. The mixer in the aircleaner housing can really restrict airflow that is needed to run well on fuel.

Cheers Jake

Think you will find it is illegal for non certified to work on a gas system, but what harm is there if you run its supply bottle to empty - there is no gas then is there?

Some states had rego discounts on LPG cars, dunno if Vic does. If you advise them no longer LPG they may require a certificate from an authorised LPG installer to say it has all been removed, and that is what is suposed to happen - al the LP gear gone!
You could retain the petrol lock off as an anti theft device. There should also be a fuel cut out gadget for LPG. Sometimes just an old style vacuum cannister with vacuum into it and wires across it, or a four wire box with one connection to the coil, another to earth two othr wires are IGN IN and IGN out to power the safety solenoids for gas at tank maybe and filter lock off at converter under bonnet. Converter has the colant channels. You could retain the box as a powr supply for something under the bonnet, that will only power up once engine is running - headlight circuit ?
