Conversion from Lpg to Petrol

Greetings guys, I was asked about converting a Lpg only Hyster to run on petrol only or as dual fuel. Can it be done easily etc.

The wiring is in a poor condition so a rewire is on the cards anyway. Can the tank be used for petrol if opened up and a filler neck fitted.

Can the distributor be run without the impco ecu removed as well as the dash etc. Would like any info from anybody that has done it, as I will only see the machine next week and would like to be more knowledgeable about the pros and cons of doing this.

Model H4.50XM L005A05004D V6 Engine

Thanks
Dave
