What is LPG?
LPG stands for liquid petroleum gas and is a high octane fuel made up of a propane and butane mix. LPG is stored in a special cylinder as a liquid; the liquid is dispersed to the engine via a regulator and then enters the engine as a vapour. There are different types of LPG systems.
Vapour systems
This is the most common of LPG systems, where the LPG vapour enters the engine through a gas mixer attached to the engine air intake system. This system is suitable for carburetor engines and some fuel injected engines.
LPG injection systems
This system has been designed to operate on electronic fuel injected engines, where LPG is injected into the engine the same way as petrol. This system offers easier starting, better performance and improved fuel economy.
