       BRC LPG kit wiring colours

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       I'm trying to figure out the electric side of things on this BRC
       gas kit I picked up cheap off eBay at the weekend, to fit the
       109.
       The plumbing is a piece of pish, it's more or less as removed
       from a V8 Rangie, so should just need a different mixer.
       The controller is a BRC Elegant 51, with a BRC Modular HI also
       connected.
       Not sure if I need the second box on a 2.25?
       The 2nd box has red, green and black all spliced back into the
       same colours from the first box (red into brown though), but
       also has 2 pairs of orange and purple which, from a bit of
       searching, are for a 4 pot injected engine?
       Back to the Elegant 51, the brown, green and black are all
       shared with the second box, but it also has orange, purple and
       grey.
       Brown I assume powers everything up off the ignition, or using a
       relay off the oil pressure switch? It has a 10A inline fuse.
       Green and black seem to go to the tank, to a blue plastic box
       which I think is a safety valve?
       Orange and purple have just been cut short, something to do with
       the (unconnected) same colours from the second box?
       Grey just has a crimped end for screwing it to something, like
       an earth point.
       At the tank there are 2 sealed connectors, one for the pressure
       gauge and one for the blue box I mentioned before, the
       connectors are the male and female of each other, but i don't
       have a plug to correspond with the gauge connector, which has
       very fine black and white connections, which I thought should go
       back to the LEDs on the switch unit in the dash?
       If anyone has a similar set-up with the same colours, could you
       help me identify what should go where? The valve just before the
       vapouriser also has 2 spades, I assume it's normally closed, is
       that a case of running it from the oil pressure switch?
       I also plan to add a solenoid shut off valve in the petrol line,
       anything to consider in the fitting of this, and where should it
       take its power off?
       Sorry for so many questions, but my head's a bit fried looking
       at it! If anyone had a wiring diagram or a few photos it would
       help me no end.
       Thanks!

       When LPG is fitted to a 2.25 it is common to exchange the
       mechanical pump for an electrical one-usually SU. I  am not
       familiar with the specific kit you've bought but where wires
       have been cut off short they are usually those that would serve
       a gauge if on we're fitted...
