Dual gas is standard in Italy. Blew me away first time I saw it I was like, "Wait...what what? Petrol, Diesel... GPL??? What's GPL?"

[Mr_Chris__]

Vehicle manufacturers such as Vauxhall used to install LPG systems into a certain number of their models as standard up until a few years ago. They don't do it so much these days in order to reduce production costs. It's a shame because LPG is a cleaner fuel and helps towards reducing the rate of petrol consumption. Any reduction in petrol consumption is still beneficial for the environment compared to no reduction at all.

Just arrived from Costa Rica, my sister has a RAV4 with convertion. Many gas stations provide LP. Holy crap it's only the 3rd of the price and you can switch to Gasoline at anytime.

Hello ! To use a vaporiser in Lpg system is now a bit old fashion. Latest system is a liquid injected system. With a vaporiser you can not drive on LPG from the start. With the liquid injected system you can drive on 100 % LPG.

I'm always telling my nephew's about his work they know more than I ever did back then 2 if them are mechanics one did up his own Audi his brother in law let him use his garage he's the owner top bloke goes above and beyond to help them out

[desshiels]

Confused. The video just ended. Was that it? What did the vaporiser connect to? They connected it up in the engine bay and connected it to the LPG tank - and then the video just ended. Please note - I am NOT a mechanic in any way so this abrupt ending has left me confused. How/where did the vaporiser connect to the actual engine??

[MrVsbt]

Wow you can buy a kit and install it yourself. In Australia it has to be fitted by a certified LPG mechanic and checked every 10 year's by a certified LPG mechanic. And it's got to have a LPG vin plate in the engine bay with the date of converson and the place that installed it

Please explain the purpose of a distributor in lpg conversion?
Thank you!

My mine was using gas for heater. Nissan maxima97

[terminator]

Is it true the LPG explosion in the combustion chamber is dry, hotter and makes the car burn more oil?

[RyL]

hmm ...maybe I missed it but how is the vaporizer mated to the motor?

[chuckthebull]

Other than lack of getting petrol what's the advantages ?

[phoneblaster]

...I want to convert an old petrol to LPG. How do I do it. Do I need to buy a kit for that particular car. Any advice will be appreciated as I do not wish to learn 'on the job'. many thanks.

[WCDodge]

No it coannot be done at home. If the vehicle in UK is not registered on the Autogas site, it will not be insurable. The only way to get it registered is an enginners report.

[davidsnyder]

If I remember correctly, this plan was abandoned because of the inspection afterwards 🤔
