Does it have to have an engineers report?I am looking at a Ford motor home based on the Transit LWB.They did make the Duetto in petrol form but they are quite rare and as I live very close but not in the LEZ,it would be a good alternative to a particulate filter.

No issues yet for petrol vehicles.
What engine is the easiest fit? I now run a 2,5di bosch pump banana in mij transit 80.
And what is called 'easy'. I've never taken an engine nor gearbox from any car....

Better time then ever to put a petrol in, is it a huge ball ache? and are any forum members able to do the transplant? my mechanic just laughs when i mention petrol to him lol

I worked for a company in Norway, that supplies fuel level sensors and Adblue Quality sensors to every major motor manufacturer in the world, in fact they have a 95% monopoly on the stuff, you name it Mercedes, Scania, Volvo, New Holland, Case, Caterpillar, JCB from Busses to Boats all have sensors from this company, and if you buy a Jap machine for example Komatsu the sensors have been around the world three times before it has saved a gram of Co2 to help the enviroment. I think from 2016 adblue is planned to be fitted to privately owned cars and light commercials, so an opportunity for some one to get into selling emulators, and am sure the chinese that make the sensors for the company I worked for will be more than happy to knock them out using stolen technology from Norway If you ever wondered what adblue is it is Urea, basic componet in Piss and is injected into the exhaust before the catalysator *SCR* selected catalytic reduction for short. The european norm for emission on commercial vehicles is now at euro6 and as of now no plans for the near future to go further. The knives have been drawn for the diesel engine and it will get harder and more expensive to run older vehicles.
