After my original thread on here, in which it was suggested I look into LPG injection into diesel engines to complete 100% burn and thus more power/efficiency/economy..

I found this description on a LPG fitter's website, does this sound like the right route for my Homy?
Found a local garage who're LPGA registered fitters, waiting to hear back if this is something they'll undertake, as the general consensus from the websites I've found seem to errr away from diesel and LPG. But fingers crossed, they'll come back positive and with a reasonable quote..
Your further advice always appreciated

Diesel engines can be converted to run partly on LPG, partly on diesel. This method uses the combustion of the diesel to ignite the LPG. The benefits include large increases in power and reduction in emissions, particularly the black smoke often associated with diesels.
Typically a ratio of 30% LPG to 70% diesel is possible. No adjustments are required to the diesel injection system and fuel savings come from the fact that throttle openings are lower due to the greatly increased power, which basically means you do not have to press the accelerator as hard to get the same performance.
Fuel savings upwards of 30% are possible with the increased power levels seen as a major benefit to users.
