Nissan Repair: breakerless ignition and extacters, flowmaster muffler, better mileage


Question
i have 9/90 gq patrol on lpg could you suggest an aftermarket piontless ignition as pionts need replacing regularly. will extracters and exhaust make much differance to fuel economy (currntly poor)

Answer
Dave,

I would go with a Petronix breakerless ignition conversion.  Otherwise, you could go with a Nissan unit from a Weecking Yard.  A K&N airfilter would help on the intake side and a free flowing exhaust like a Flowmaster Muffler would work to get better mileage.  Also, if you are getting bad mileage with LPG you migth look at the settings of the system as it sounds like it is running rich.
