There is a conversion system for diesel but it requires that LPG just to offset the use of diesel. So the engine will use diesel & LPG at the same time. Performance is increased, emissions much cleaner and overall fuel cost will go down.

Any Shops out there that would accept credit cards for LPG Conversion?

Sabi po nung installer skin, meron din daw po LPG kit for diesel engine.....

mas mahal nga lang po compared to Gas Engine (Php ~80K ),

And as what ser GH mentioned....mixed po ang fuel for Diesel engine
(70/30; 70% diesel with 30% LPG)......

not really that viable....unless you are looking at reducing your emission.

thanks po sir. agree with you its not viable. imo its more practical to buy a gas fed tsikot and have it converted to LPG than buying a diesel fed car. ive heard lpg kits for gaso cars are down to 20-30k (although depending to the car).. hmm tempting maybe its just for sedans/ hatchbacks. but still its a good price.

AAARRRGGGHHHH just had a whopper of a headache, parang ganito ...

just spent almost 2 days reading the thread from page 1 to page 80:insomnia:... buti na lang i dont read out loud kng nde wla na akong boses ngaun hehehe

anyways, this is ONE very informative and entertaining thread. learned positive things, and also NEGATIVE things as well about auto LPG which directly concerns me.

the negative things?
1. learned that ony 1 Accord VTi-L 2000 was converted. username starts with a "C", can't remember who exactly...
2. no mention whatsoever of installers in Davao

My accord's mileage sucks at around 3.5 - 4 km/l. usual monthly consumption is around 100 liters a month, about 99% city driving. kahit walang traffic, almost all intersections have stoplights so still stop and go. and with 50+ per liter of Caltex Silver, the LPG conversion jumps high above
my list of priorites.

So after reading the entire thread, i have somewhat a more than enough understanding of what the conversion is about. My problem is about the engine itself, since i grew up in 12r's and 4k's, and my experience with efi's is basically ask someone else to do it. So i need to ask those who know Honda engines in particular for help :D

what's the best unit for my car? closed loop or SGI? and how to finetune the f/a mix? what do i need to tell the mechanic, like the buzzwords so that i may appear "learned" and thus not be fooled easily

btw, filling centers are not a problem since almost all of the taxis here are LPG powered, and one thing i noticed... almost all kia's reek of that stale
egg stench, while with the aveos and sentras all are ok. probably because of the overall quality of the newer cars. but there is this kia avila that overtook a lancer struggling up the access ramp, and i noticed that the rpm didn't drop at all! i asked the driver if he's on LPG. he is! ganda ng pagkatono ng taxi nya hehehe and that was with A/C on!

thanks!

We have converted a Montero V6 using an emulator system so far its been months already since the car was fitted and no complaints.

I'm sorry is the emulator sys. the closed loop or SGI? How much did it cost? The V6 was EFI right?

sorry for the double post - connection was acting up

Di parang alcohol injection ang effect nito? Mas mura yata yung Devilsown system, kesa sa diesel-LPG kit. P12k lang yata yung Devilsown, and yung Infinity is P50k ++.

Alcohol injection is an engine mod where you pump an alcohol and water mix into the intake manifold (I think not 100% sure). Its old technology. 1st used in WWII to give fighter planes more HP. It was then largely forgotten but now being revived b a few companies.

Devildoc is a Tsikot member that sell them. His company is namec Devilsown. There are a few threads here in Tsikot. I think he has a demo scheduled at Speedlab on May 31.

He has posted videos of dyno runs on youtube. Gains are impressive for turbo diesels. Cant remember if it was 30 or 40%. Anyway its in the alcohol injection thread. Emmissions are also a lot less. It also works for naturally aspirated cars but gains will be around 10% max.

Here is one of the threads:
