The Menace

Max. load is 825kg

I'm thinking of adding a scooter towbar rack and a 110kg Honda scooter to the rear of the campervan and wanted to know if the rear axle can take the extra load, I've replaced the rear spare wheel with a donut LPG tank so that will have added some extra weight. Any thoughts/comments would be appreciated. Thanks, Nigel

It looks like its a space saver 17 inch tyre on a 19 inch rim. The tyre markings state temporary use only, size T155/70 D17.

Yes it's still available, I just measured the rim diameter, it is a 19 inch, it does have a tyre on it

What oil, and quantity should I put in an automatic transmission for a 2003 2.4 litre Alphard. Thanks.

You need to move up North then ☺️ I have one about 2 miles away and 5 within 10 miles - assuming the myLPG.eu App is accurate Don't worry, much of all the stuff we need in the future will be no more than a 15 minute walk or cycle ride away from your home - being developed by cities across the UK to reduce carbon emissions by decreasing the use of motorized vehicles

If you have any plans to fit a towbar, get them to fit one prior to installing the donut tank. Btw, Gas Tech (if that's who you're using) did a great job polishing and sealing my headlight lenses which had yellowed quite badly, they look like new now.

Gas Tech Warrington, Mark Marshall, 01925-555868. Excellent work, they had the van for about a week, the van drives no differently, can switch back to petrol at the press of a button. Cheaper to run, you can get a phone App. to locate LPG stations across the UK. It will take about 2 years to get a ROI, calculated based on driving 6,000 miles a year and petrol prices from a year ago.

Had an LPG conversion done to the van so no longer have room for the spare wheel. It's free for anyone that can pick it up. We're near Preston, Lancashire

Try Matt at Gastech Warrington, 01925-555868, they have the keys and can do the programming. They specialise in LPG conversions which they just completed on our 2.4 litre Alphard. Nigel
