[Vwdiesel] Propane injection update and Dual fuel system install

[dieseltdi at earthlink.net]

Just a quick update on the propane injection system.  I now have two intown
tanks on the propane to go along with the highway data previously reported.
The two tanks gave me an average of 40 mpg for intown driving.  This is
exactly what I have been getting in winter (no A/C) driving before.  BUT I
have not been driving the car like I normally do.  In fact I have driven the
car hard ALL of the time.  Acelleration rapidly, driving many times in the
75-80 mph on highway stretches etc, etc.  I have basically driven the hell
out of the car and put it up wet every single day and the car STILL got 40
mpg!  I cannot imagine what would happen if I drove regularly but the car is
so much fun when on the juice.
Anyway, the current system is coming out tomorrow or Friday and will be
replaced by a Welsh Technologies Dual Fuel System.  This system provides 2
levels of propane injection: a small amount on idle and then a larger amount
once the car comes off idle.  It also qualifies as a dual fuel vehicle and a
$2000 tax credit!!!!!  Anyway, I am documenting the installation on my
website so every one can see.  BTW I didn't buy the system directly from
Welsh, I purchased it on ebay from a distributor in Austin, Tx.  At any
rate, I will keep every one up to date on the progress.  Hayden
