Liquefied petroleum gas or LPG stands for liquid petroleum gas and is a type of “liquid gas” that can be used as a fuel for a variety of purposes, including fueling cars. It is also referred to as butane and propane gas and is the byproduct of processing natural gas liquids as well as refining crude oil.<\/p>\n
LPG has in recent years been recognized as a versatile low-carbon fuel \u2013 and is widely used in LPG propulsion. Although the phrase “liquid gas” appears to be a contradiction in terms, it actually describes a clear gas that turns into a liquid when subjected to pressure or cooling: it is this characteristic that allows it to be stored in tanks in a vehicle.<\/p>\n

The advantage of converting the vehicle to LPG is clear, especially in recent times when petrol has shot up to prohibitive levels: LPG fuel usually costs about half the price of petrol. Although cars are unlikely to be more fuel efficient when running on LPG, you could soon be cutting your fuel budget in half. Once the cost of the LPG conversion is paid off, this could add up to significant savings \u2013 and the more you drive, the more you save.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Why Choose Us Section” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_size=”initial” background_position=”bottom_right” background_enable_pattern_style=”on” background_pattern_style=”diagonal-stripes” background_pattern_color=”rgba(198,198,198,0.1)” background_pattern_size=”cover” module_alignment=”right” custom_margin=”||||false” custom_padding=”40px||40px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||10px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_text_align=”center” custom_margin=”||10px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

It is very important especially nowadays to use economical fuel and LPG is much more economical than petrol. This is largely due to the fact that LPG has lower fuel tax rates than other available fuels. Diesel, petrol and biofuels such as bioethanol are subject to higher taxes.<\/p>\n

Having an LPG conversion engine means you will be running 50\/50 on your original fuel and LPG fuel. Reducing the amount of gasoline fed to your engine also reduces internal wear and tear. Having a clean engine along with a more fuel-efficient car could also improve its resale value.<\/p>\n
