and after a few months of research and testing.. ito find ko regarding our taxis equipped with carb type LPG kit.

1. versus an SGI kit.. in theory, since ala pa ako SGI equipped taxi, masmaganda ang SGI since ang pasok ng fuel (LPG) is based na din on sensors particullarly your TPS (talagang according ito sa depth ng tapak mo sa pedal)

as opposed to carb type kits, umaasa ito sa vacuum ng engine wherein the adjustments to the kit is fixed unlike for an SGI kit where your injectors vary the opening for LPG flow.

2. The adjustments made to the LPG kit vary upon the condition of the engine. compression nito, then yung opening para sa air flow. what we did experience was valve seals rupturing though. since taxi drivers mostly go for taxis na matitipid ang LPG, tune ang kits with a lean mix. which(as ive researched and experienced) mainit talaga. lalo na kung bibigatan mo pa ang paa mo sa throttle, chances are mas lalo pa magiging lean ang mix sa biglaang tapak ng pedal. ganun pa naman ang mga taxi lalo na't nagaagawan ng pasahero.

Pero so far maganda naman ang experience namin with LPG kits. More than 1yr na rin. That is since aug of 2006. We've had multi crashes and 2 accidents na medyo matindi na pati bubong e nawala na sa porma. One hit a mmda barrier sa may malapit sa airport area. Pero never experience explosions. Puro chismis lang asar! Then wala pa din kaming mga medical related experience ng bad effects of it. Yung garahe namin is semi closed siya and wala pa naman tama sakin.

I have yet to see one explode. Hay sana lang yung magcocomment ng masyado regarding LPG e yung may experience talaga para hindi nakakaasar basahin. Puro walang factual basis kasi e.

I used to hear a lot of chismis from our drivers kaya napatagal talaga kami sa conversion nun kasi naging hesitant si itay because of that. Matagal tagal na din kasi ang LPG kits dito sa pinas e. more than 4-5yrs na rin ata.

bale 64 units of taxi with LPG kits. pang 65th namin is SGI sana. and still adding.

peace!
