Auto-LPG Conversion Thread

So far the problems with the Greenfuel SGI kits we have are the injectors needing cleaning like the Honda City 1.3L iDSi.

The 2nd gen Honda CRV 2.0L runs well enough after the "sinok" problem was figured out. The 2002 Toyota Camry 2.0L runs smoothly. The 2008 Nissan Sentra 1.3L runs well but had to go back once or twice for injector cleaning.

My 1999 Corolla 1.6L (NAIADSS) venturi with emulator kit is running well. No maintenance done since the new filler was installed.

thanks for the info. bakit kaya ganun yung vaporizer na naka install sa kotse ko? second time na ito nangyari eh hinde ko naman ginagalaw yung adjustmet ng idle screw pagtapos nila i tune up.

kung sinasabi nila na dahil daw sa init kaya nagbebend yung metal parts dapat nakikita ko na rin na abnormal ang temp ng kotse ko eh normal din naman.

The vaporizer's diaphragm is rather fragile if too much adjustment was done by the guy adjusting it. I think their excuse is just to cover their sorry ass.

i really dont know how the metal bends over time thats why i also want to check with other (honda) users maybe to validate what GF is claiming earlier. bakit madalas daw honda ang nasisiraan ng vaporizer??

Dunno. But according the NAIADSS, the leading cause of vaporizer problems is the (taxi) drivers adjusting it themselves.

Parang ganyan din problem nung Revo ko. EROOM replaced the vaporizer with a reconditioned one (buti na lang napalitan pa, kahit after warranty na). Pero no statements about bending metal inside the vaporizer. Parang nag-s-stuckup lang yata yung spring sa diaphragm kaya hindi maka supply agad ng LPG when idle-down (pag namatay ang aircon compressor).

Parang ok na uli ang LPG ko, about 3 weeks has passed na. Let's see... Napapansin ko lang medyo malakas na ang consumption ng LPG ko (down to 4.3km/l, from about 4.7km/l). New oil, clean plugs, and clean air filter naman.

Keep us updated please. I'm seriously considering having my ae101 4afe converted sa Greenfuel, with their venturi-efi emulator kit. Super init pa naman ng 4afe na makina.

it depends kung anung spring yung sinasabi mo kasi yung pagbukas ng vaporiser ang laki ng spring ang you need to hold with your palm to screw it in again.

malakas ata sir ang consumption niyo 4.7 lang? ako nakaka 8km on the average, not sure sa ngayon obserbahan ko pa ng isang linggo. pero since na nag lpg ako mga 8 and average ko.

[paolorenzo]

malakas talaga yung revo, which led me to conversion in the first place. Gas consumption was 5-5.5km/liter back then. parang tricycle capital of the world kasi ang inner streets of pasig city, kaya stop-go traffic and daily route ko.

naka 8km/li ako in my recent trip to Pangasinan, using LPG.
