alin po kaya ang pinaka-ok na lpg conversion company?(when it comes to service, technology, aftermarket support, etc.)

The best auto-LPG kit is the sequential injection LPG system, which basically a individual port fuel injection system for LPG. It even gives your engine a slight boost in power as compared to running on gasoline. Downside is it cost at least twice as much as the typical LPG system available at NAIADSS or other LPG installers.

NAIADSS price for 1.6L EFI conversion is around P28K.

You have a budget in mind for your LPG conversion?

just sharing

best to have the tank draining done at the LPG service stations and not DIY. So far I haven't done a system drain. Based on my computations, I should be due by August of this year.

But putting vinegar inside the tank... how does that make the LPG less volatile? Won't it just lead to rust forming on the inside of the tank and possible acidic fluid contamination to the rest of the LPG system?

Can the EFI version be installed on carburator engines? Thanks!

The LPG kit for EFI engines and carb engines are almost the same (given the Korean type conversion kits). The difference is the injector bypass box which disables the engine's fuel injectors if you are running on LPG. If you dont have fuel injectors, there is nothing to bypass.

There is the Italian EFI LPG kit that costs at least P60K. I dont think you can fit that to a carb engine either because I think it takes the stock injector signals for fire it's LPG injectors.

Sequential injection is probably applicable to higher-end fuel injection cars. If you are simply getting a 1.4L car, you would be better off with the standard carb type LPG kit which costs roughly P24K.

If I am correct, Landrolanzo (tama ba spelling??) sells them.
