Reply With Quote20% replacement is good, 25% is OK 30% or more gives poorer economy but excellent power. Have it turned down.

SubscriberI have deisel gas on my td5 and feel it is using too much gas per tank of fuel, it seems to be using about 14l of gas (16l tank) per half a tank of deisel. as any one got any real life experience with usage. I feel it sould use about a tank of gas to a tank of deisel

Hello,
I have LPG on my TD5 I get about 400ks to the 17liters gas to about depends how I drive a little less now due to higher boost with the VNT, big differance in every way. To get it looked at he is in the swan valley I think.
Marks number is 0419 049 108 he is agent for Dieselgas Australia. very good fixes and does installs.

Opps sorry didn't see you are in Tassie, must have been those beers earlier.......... long way to come for a service, any LPG place can service it.

SubscriberNo mate, I am in Perth (Karrinyup) just originated from tassie, its will always be home but we are on a very slow big lap
thanks for the info, Iam getting 445km to a tank of gas, just thought that it would have been set up to only do one stop at the servo and not filling te gas tank twice to a tank of fuel. May need to look at a bigger lpg tank
cheers

Major part of the heart and soul of AULRO.comIt depends upon the system installed. For example, it may need particular software for the system. On my laptop, I have the software for the Gastek DieselGas Sequent II LPG fumigation system.Originally Posted by bblaze

SubscriberOK, hear me out.. you buy a V8, and to be able to afford to run it you then convert it to gas.. you buy a petrol forklift then for cost and convenience you run it on gas.. You buy a diesel for it's economy.. Why would you then run it on gas when you still have to run it on diesel to save the fuel pump/injectors from ceasing/wearing out.. Yeah, if it's a 16 litre Cummins or a V8 Chev diesel it would help, but a Euro diesel thats already doing 9/11 litres per 100km? Is it worth it and what are the benifits if you are putting a tank of gas thru it every time you fill the diesel tank...?? Can of worms maybee, but tell me more!
Major part of the heart and soul of AULRO.comSitec, it's not for economy, it's for the extra power. Any economy gains are a bonus.

Petrol forklifts are run on LPG due to emissions, gas burns cleaner for inside use.
Diesel gas (LPG fumigation) doesn't work like that. By replacing 20% of your diesel useage with cheaper LPG (IE backing off a little when the gas is turned on) you save approximately 10% of your running costs, it burns cleaner, and you have extra power available at full throttle. And you have extended your range too. The LPG rebate made it quite affordable compared to the full cost before.
