Default Outlander on LPG

I have done about 80,000 kls on LPG now and it runs great and at less than half the cost of petrol. Switching from petrol to LPG there is no noticable change of power. Because of the LPG the engine management light stays on as it senses that it is running to lean but it causes no problems. It is a sequential changeover system vapor multi injection into the manifold the same as they use for the Pajero. It only has a usable 40 lt because it is where the spare was.

I have mine booked for an LPG conversion at the end of the month but am still a bit hesitant because i have read that the mitsubishi 4cyl engine isnt adaptable to LPG. I know nothing about cars so all the information i can gather would be much appriciated. It is a 2009/2010 mivec activ if thats any help.


thanks

The people who did my conversion give a 100,000 k warranty.
It took around 60,000 k to cover the outlay but think of the everyday saving.
The type of conversion has a great deal to do with the setup as a whole.
Where are you getting it done?

I live in melbourne so im not sure where you are from, its a place in hoppers crossing called fuel miser. He is a pretty well known person for LPG conversions. Another question i would like ask is if the engine light stays on after conversion? What things should i be asking with regards to warranties and set ups

I went to AG Autogas in Lilydale as after contacting many companies they seemed to be the only ones that knew what they were talking about.
I used to live in Hoppers.
