Which Car can get converted?
In general all petrol fuelled vehicles can be adapted to run on LPG. There are a few exceptions which are mainly some very modern vehicles which have direct petrol injection ie DGI engines. All vehicles retain their petrol system so that there is a choice of which fuel to use.
The Process
The basic process of converting a vehicle consists of installing a tank to contain the gas and adding control equipment to the engine.
It is a simple straightforward process that can enable you to reduce your fuel costs immediately.
The conversion system used depends upon the vehicle engine management system and on board diagnostic (EOBD) requirements. Most modern vehicles use a sequential injection system, essential for integration with EOBD and for maximum emissions reduction and efficiency. Separate LPG injectors are installed in the inlet manifold, close to the petrol injectors, fed via a common rail, from the vaporiser unit.
The flow of gas to the injectors is controlled by the LPG ECU. Sequential LPG systems utilise the original petrol injector signal and duration times, allowing any deviation in fuel mixture to be compensated for by the original vehicle ECU.
