    Personally I think the current increases in price for LPG is totally artificial, driven by greedy oil companies looking for ways to circumvent the price control over gasoline and diesel.

    As for the current users of auto-lpg, remember that auto-lpg is not the solution to fuel prices and shortages. It simply gave us the power to choose which fuel we want to use for our vehicles. So when the time comes when its more economically viable to use gasoline over LPG, we can simply do so at the push of a button on our dashboard.

Hassle din kasing magpabalik-balik sa shop that often...

    Thanks in advance.
    i notice erratic idling sometimes kaya ginagawa ko, linis ng air filter, pag ayaw pa rin linis ng lpg filter, pag ayaw pa rin check ko spark plugs, ngayon ayaw pa rin, kaya nag ttrail and error na ako sa lpg mixture. mahirap kasi pag ikaw lang magisa ang nag aadjust dahil walang taga check ng rpm sa loob. hirap din kasi bumalik sa greenfuel tapos within 5-10mins of fine tuning aayos na ulit. dapat talaga matuto na rin tayo mag DIY. masyadong sensitive ang lpg.

    Thanks n5110. Dapat nga siguro matuto na tayo mag DIY ng LPG natin. Oks na ulit yung kotse ko. Kahapon lang kasi ako nagka-chance bumalik sa Greenfuel and tama ka, in less than 10 minutes, ayus na sya ulit. Although, thanks na rin sa Greenfuel for maintaining a good pool of technicians. Lalo na ngayon, nasa Australia na pala si Ian! Kakaalis lang nung Friday! Good luck, Ian!
