Vehicle: 2003 Ford Falcon BA XT SEDAN - 4.0L 6cyl LPG

Price: $9,990

Kilomtres: 110,000

Transmission: Semi-Automatic

Location: Brisbane QLD

Contact Details: Matt - 0401 216 234 or (07) 3279 1615

I am the second owner of this vehicle, having purchased it at 88,000 kms. The previous owner lived in rural NSW and travelled mostly highway kms, and I have also travelled primarily highway kms (between Sydney and Brisbane).

Upon purchasing the vehicle at 88,000 kms, a full RACQ inspection was conducted and found no major faults (only brake rotors & windscreen wipers, both of which have been amended). RACQ rated the condition of the car as excellent and it is apparent upon inspection that this is still the case. I can happily provide a copy of the RACQ cert. Any inspection is welcome and encouraged.

This is a great economical family car, with the comfort and safety of a large car yet the fuel cost of a small car due to the factory LPG gas. A tank of fuel usually costs me under $40.

Falcons are one of the only vehicles available with dedicated lpg as an option straight from the factory, meaning the engines are built and tuned purely for lpg and generally run better than converted or dual fuel lpg systems. The advantages of this include better fuel efficiency and plenty of boot space since you don't have an LPG tank in the boot.

Full logbooks and service history are provided, and services have always been carried out on time using good quality engine oil. A service is not required for another 10,000 kms.

Selling because I now work/study in the city and catch public transport every day, so I have no need for two cars.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
