Auto-LPG Conversion Thread

[paolorenzo]

I wonder if the P27,000 closed loop EFI kit is applicable to cars like Mazda3 and Honda City/Jazz.

Can you post the contact info (if you have it).

I guess puwede. I PM'd Vince (his Tsikot handle is zeagle). You can go to Coolmate, which is the Denso Service Center along Pasong Tamo.

Here is Denso Coolmate's Contact Page.

I think mura na ito, since it's almost the same price as NAIDSS, pero closed loop na siya. I chanced upon this, kasi when I was having my radiator serviced early last year, meron mga Korean na nag-i-install nung LPG kit. Vince told me that they were attempting to install a closed loop system, which was a better system compared to the usual kits being installed nowadays. Only when I read through this entire thread, did I understand what it was about.

Mas ok yata na alternative ito than SGI kits, kasi sakit sa bulsa nun eh. :ouch:

how about those with variable valve timing? would the SGI kits be able to still utilize the variable feature of the engine?

balak ko sana palagyan yung fortuner. hehehe lakas sa gas!

the next problem would be where to put the tank. in the place of the reserve tire (make a mount), or inside the cabin (in between the 2nd and 3rd row-nobody really seats at the back usually. bahala na sila maghanap ng upuan. hehehe )

Yes because even the gasoline injectors are still positioned before the actual valves.

I might suggest in the back area and positioned to one side so you can still access the entire length of the back of the fortuner.

hmm.. so parallel with the length of the vehicle? pwde rin. para at least yung isang side na seat, pwede pa rin magamit. ang takot ko lang is baka hindi pumantay yung weight sa side na yun.

come to think of it, sa isang side rin lang naka-position ang gas tank ata. if i remember it correctly.

thanks thanks! been reading this for a while na. sana magkaron ako ng go signal and ng budget. hehe

saw a mazda 6 equipped with LPG at the Fort Strip last night, wow
hope LPG refuelling stations reach areas outside of Metro Manila so this'll be a viable option for more people.

For the meantime, the lack of LPG refueling stations outside metro manila isn't that much of a hindrance (if you plan to travel long distances) since LPG converted vehicles can still run on gasoline if the need arises.
