    Sir ghosthunter - is a liter equals to a kg (volume to weight) most signs (price boards) that I see are usually Kg and I wanted to compute on savings or price diff of gas and lpg. Thanks

    nope... 1L of LPG is lighter than 1kg.

    1L LPG = 0.51kg from http://www.langegas.com/gasle.htm

    but if you want to compute your gasoline vs LPG savings, you will have to use fuel mileage of gasoline vs LPG, not just simple cost per liter.

    I do not have a good experience with NAIADS personnel, they tend not to be real honest on how they check the engine. I prefer "Ambient" tartarini on Scout Borromeo near ABS-CBN area. 18k lang ang qoute nila sa akin. mine is a 1.5 carb type nissan

    just a few days ago will try to update on how my car is performing.
    another thing i don't like about NAIADS is that they don't tell everything you need to know.

    me: sir, paano nyo po malalaman kung ok ang makina for conversion?
    NAIADS: dalhin nyo n lng sa shop sir!
    me: gusto ko kasi malaman kung papaayos ko muna, meron bang kelangan icheck like plugs at filter?
    NAIADS: basta sir, dalhin nyo n lng. madali lang po ayusin yan!.....

    no matter how much i try to ask what is needed to maintain a good engine, they just won't speak out.

    so far no leaks or smell whatsoever, singawin daw mga ang NAIADS installation, tho of course we can't really trust negative comments from rival parties

    my LPG kit is from NAIADSS ... no problems except once where they simply tightened a nut to stop a slow leak of LPG. This was after a few months of the system working fine.

    Generally my experience with NAIADSS is okay.

    lpg is much cheaper than your usual gasoline purchases. let us assume that you are really saving enough but the question is safety. prone sa mga leaks ang kit, maamoy pa sa loob ng auto. sa tingin mo mas mahalaga ang pagtitipid na yan kung ang kapalit eh kalusugan ng mga mahal mo sa buhay like mga anak o asawa mo? ok lang ba sa inyong malanghap ng mga anak nyo ang amoy ng nag le leak na lpg? kaya mo bang isakripisyo buhay ng mga mahal mo para sa pagtitipid mo? my point is very questionable pa ang lpg convertion sa pinas kc di pa nila na ma master ang convertion safety kaya medyo delikado. sa opinion di pa aabot pambayad ng hospital bills ang mga natipid mo sa lpg convertion.

    Correct. I feel like whoever use this is a guinea pig. Scary.. sa bahay nga sumasabog ang LPG. How much more kung lagi itong exposed sa high temperature.O kaya sumasakay ka sa jeep, booom!
