Diesel LPG Conversions

(1/5) > >>

smo:
Has anyone here with a DIESEL had an LPG converions fitted to their engine.

Normal sort fo quesitons, how much, where from, and most of all what is it like?

(I'm more interested in proper LPG systems than a propane bottle strapped in the back!)

They dont seem to do the sort of conversion i'm after - as i have a TD5 i'm after an avanced system that integrates seemlessly, its more for a cleaner burn and better economy than performance that i want it which could save me about 40-45% in overall running costs as well as potentially cheaper road tax :)

aint gonna happen

the LPG squirt does give a better fuel consumption but only because it helps with the burning of the fuel to more of an extent than just diesel,

its nothing like an LPG setup on a petrol which a fair amount of people are missinformed thinking that it is,

LPG squirt on a diesel gives a more economical burn & also reduces the black smoke output but if you have a TD5 & are after more fuel economy get it chipped & drive like a normal person

LPG on Diesel can give better economy - more power/efficiency should mean that you can stay in a higher gear for longer etc.

You won't - you'll just go faster.

But 40% cheaper? Nah......buy a micra!
