After driving my santro xing for around 15k kms on CNG,i finally decided to install timing advancer to the kit.My cars performance in mid and high rpms was good,but used to be sluggish in traffic ie in low rpms.But after installing timing advancer "Sluggish!!!!!! what is that,the performance is awesome and can be compared with petrol.Before installing timing advancer the car used to return me 22-23 km/kg with AC.I have installed it today itself so i really cannot comment on fuel efficiency.I will update it after 3-4 days.

First upload them to your album anyways. That is the starting step.

When viewing your pic uploaded on the album, right click on the pic and copy the shortcut to the pic.

when posting, click the 'tree' icon on the quick reply box, a dialog box will open. there in the link location, paste the shortcut.

Click on the 'Insert' button.

Write and post as usual.

Use the preview icon (third from the right on the quick reply box toolbar) to check if your pic is appearing correctly in the post. If not, open up the dialog box again and adjust parameters.

looking forward to your FE impact data after a few days. looks like interesting!

Before modifying engine related parts you should aware of it.Otherwise it will give you more trouble. 22-23 is good mileage that too with AC

Few details:

The total cost with installation charge is 2500/-

The installation takes about 1 hour.It is little complex to install but a good installer will do it easily.Heres the steps in fig(sorry for quality of image.hope its readable)

I am still working on the FE.I know it has crossed 25km/kg but still i will do another 2-3 tank fulls and confirm as the pressure of filling is not same every time.

UPDATE:

Sorry for updating the thread little late as there was problem of slightly varying pressure at cng filling station.After almost 6-7 fills,my car is returning me 24-25km/kg with AC swiched ON all the time.This is really phenomenal economy with superb drivability with timing advancer.But after installing timing advancer my engine is giving slight pinging on petrol.Any advice on the same will be great.
