front and rear flaps
I´m thinking about installing flaps on front and back wheelarches. Not those ridiculously large/regular mudflas, but distinghuished small ones.

Re: engine oil, whats ya poison ?

Fuel economy improved about 10% to approx. 6 miles/liter on LPG.

Meaning that the fuel is injected into the cylinders as a liquid. My peug has the same performance o...
