    I think there is truth to this, kasi yung setup ko, sabi ng technician na may abang na daw for lpg yung carb ko, so instead of placing another device to control air/fuel, nag install na lang ng lpg line directly sa carb ko, as they said na wala silang fit on my carb nung pang control na yun, so to compensate dahil walang control, what they did was to put in a piece of galvanize sheet metal with 4 small holes to block/restrict air passage, nilagay yun dun mismo sa top ng carb just before yung assembly ng air filter, so the problem now is pag i switch back to petrol, ang takbo nya ay choke, at di ako maka rev to 3K rpm, I was told na lalakas nga ang consumption ko if di ilagay yung restrictor na yun. parang ngayon narealize ko na, dahil they've tuned mine ng di nalinis yung air filter, so after travelling about 80Kms, the following day nilinis ko yung air filter, napansin ko lang after about 30Kms pa lang nagbawas agad yung fuel indicator ko ng another light, and then may parang amoy maasim yung exhaust ko, so kinalikot ko yung mixer, turned clockwise, pabawas ng fuel, nawala na yung amoy nung asim usok. also i've traveled 20Km ulit, di pa gumalaw ulit yung indicator ng fuel. I'll post bukas pag pasok and mag refill kung ilan ang natakbo ko sa unang fill up. dati sa gas i'm doing 9-11 Km/L (sakal pa ang tuning nun), if medyo accurate naman yung gauges ng lpg, i would guess na im running at 7-8Km/L. Tomorrow malalaman ko na actual pag ka karga ko. if maging mababa ang turn out, i will try to fabricate yung restrictor with smaller holes, kung mas makakatipid.

    add:
    just researched now, yung venturi mixer pala ang di na nailagay, straight na yung lpg sa carb ko. so everytime na takbo ako ng petrol, i would have to dismantle the air-filter assembly to take out yung restrictor (sheet metal), otherwise, laging choke ang takbo sa petrol.

    anyone here converted a lancer 4g15a engine to lpg? ganito din kaya setup nila.
