How good is the 2.0lt petrol engine??

Postby M4CKK » Wed Sep 08, 2010 8:57 am

Been offered a ford 2.0lt petrol/lpg engined pickup. Running on petrol only. How good/ reliable is this lump?
Is it more powerful than the 2.5di?.. its a lot quieter (is that a word)
53,000 miles only.

Thanks,
Mack

It will pull just as well as the diesel, maybe not as economical though if running petrol, but thats a trade off agains the noise levels :wink:

On LPG you're on a winner :D
