Why should I choose a LPG Dual Fuel option instead of petrol or diesel?
An LPG dual fuel option refers to the conversion of petrol engine to run on either LPG or petrol. Petrol engines weigh less, produce lower emissions and are inexpensive to purchase, in comparison to diesel engines. Although, they have much higher running costs. Diesels are more fuel efficient, but weigh more, produce much greater emissions and are comparitively more expensive to purchase.
LPG essentially enables the user to purchase a lower costing, lighter, lower emission petrol engine and also have the low running costs of a diesel. Advantages include;
•Up to 50% reduction in running costs in comparison to petrol
•60% lower CO2 emissions in comparison to petrol allows a more environmentally friendly operation.
•Due to the lower carbon content of LPG, consumables such as spark plugs and oil have extended life.
•Running times can be extended with the use of larger LPG bottles.
•Safer to use, as LPG avoids the hazard of having to refill a hot engine with highly flammable fuel.
•An LPG conversion means there is no danger of fuel contamination or fuel going stale in the carburettor, a common problem with petrol.
•Re-fuelling is made easier, as the user simply needs to re-connect a new cylinder bottle
What is a Solenoid Safety LPG Kit?
This type of LPG kit fits onto electric start engines only and is operated by a solenoid system. It is an additional safety system that shuts off the LPG supply when the engine ignition is turned off, meaning you do not have to turn the LPG off at the cylinder. A remote start module can be fitted
