Default LPG Conversions for generators.
Hi,

I remember reading some time ago that there was a company that specialised in selling LPG Converted generators.Either Honda or Kippor branded.

Has anyone on this site had any experience of these conversions and are they worthwhile please?

LPG burns cleaner than Petrol.Just experiencing a GREEN moment.

Hi. There is a firm that markets the conversion kits on ebay about £130 I think.
Regards Geoff.
