LPG Vs CNG

Hello,

still euro Vi is not present in India i think you are talking about euro iV i.e. euro 4 .\many companies imported and Indian companies have got euro 4 approval.

please mention model of the car and type of car to be converted i can suggest you the approval

Thanks

I may not suggest this because wherever the company is selling factory fitted LPG/CNG kit cars they are not bale to give propper service, the service centre are not wellknown with the system and they dont have knowledge for gas kit everything seems to be new for mechanics there even the spares are not available for the gas kit. In Europe 90% cars are fitted aftermarket becuase they get good results good service.

OE fitted gas kits are not successfull anywhere in the world.

The bad thing is that the company voids the warrenty of the engine if fitted outside the company.

for more information about conversion you can read on www.greencarwebsite.co.uk

Cheers

Sorry for that, actually it is euro iv ............ and my car is Alto K10..............& thanks a tonn for correcting me

Hello,
i will suggest you to fit the simple mixer system kit for Maruti K10 Alto which is the best easy to handle if there is any problem in the car any gaswala can fix the problem cheap and best if you want a step above siimple you can go for close loop with mixer the approx cost is 30,000 of 65 Litre Water Capacity CNG tank . please tell me where do you stay i can suggest you some authorised installer

the best of all is system is sequential system which a bit expensive costing around 65000

Dear friends,

In fact I am not replying to thread exactly, but yes my feedback as a user of LPG as alternate fuelmay of some use to some new users.

I have used  LOVATO LPG KIT for about 7 years in FIAT Premier Padmini and then sold my car in 2008 and presently I am a dedicated user of RTO APPROVED LPG KIT since since 2006 (not even factoy fitted) in my 2004 model SANTRO-ZING.

I remember having read In some magazine of repute long ago that, LPG has

1.-A higher flash point.

2.-A higher Ignition temperature.

3.-Higher C.V

4.- Lesser Carbon deposition.

5.- Heavy pungent odour/smell helping in detection of slightest leakage.

( IF ANY OF THE POINTS MENTIONED ARE INCORRECT PLEASE CORRECT ME.)

I have the experince of driving my car ( Ambassador, Fiat and Sntro) with petrol as well for about 36 years.

I have always enjoyed better pckup, safety and running cost economy.

This is all.

Now comig to my querry Sir? 

1.- Can LPG Tank be filled up with CNG gas after it is empty.

2.- Can CNG be used withe sme multi valve LPG GAS-KIT.

3.- IS it safe?

In many cities LPG PUMPS are not available,

IF CNG Vs LPG hydrocarbon CONSTITUENTS CAN BE ILLUSTRATED i SHALL BE THANK FUL.  

LPG and CNG kit are not compatible to each other for very simple reason of different Calorific values of both the gas and also because CNG is 90% Methane where as Butane is is the major constituent of LPG.

Dear sir,

So for we are running our core making m/c with lpg.we hv to switchover it to cng. we hv cng plant.we hv taken some trials,but we are not getting sufficient flow pressure of cng through nozzles.

is operating pressure of lpg & cng is different?

is design of nozzle for lpg & cng are different ? pl. describe in detail.

der friend jitoo,

    you want to drive your bike perfectly on cng so reduce the air intake by using mixer because stochiometric ratio is diffrent and presure of cng is more than ten times of lpg.

Well..to mmmy best knowledge..Petrol is the most trustworthy fuel otion you have..

1. Engine life longer as compared to other options

2. Safety comparison between all gives petrol the first number

3. Availability of pumps as compared to other things.

4. Dual fuel options decreases engine life more than anyone used alone.

5. For filling CNG or LPG...you have to drive an extra mile, about which noone is talking about

6. Only petrol vehicle cost gives you difference of 50K as per current market rates..whereas noone has thought that in that 50K, how much petrol you can feel, which is enough for an year. and even if you add another year to it, you land up saving on petrol, after 2 n half years you might start spending more on petrol as compared to CNG n LPG but at the same time engine has become old so milage for other options also gets down. And even if you want, you can go for external LPG or CNG kit with extra cost, as your company warrenty ends right there.

I think this high level, not so detailed technical information has helped you to take decision.

Petrol rocks...but at the same time for shorter distances please use bikes or cycle.

Save fuel..Save Earth..

Take care guys...have a nice life..bye
