02.00 pm – Did some research on LPG. Learned that in Malaysia it’s called NGV. Thailand cars were using it and I had no knowledge whatsoever about LPG. From my half an hour research I learned that :
-
RM0.68 = 1 liter of LPG
RM2.70 = 1 liter of petrol - LPG is much more environmental friendly than petrol. 75% less carbon monoxide!
- And if a car ever meets an accident and leaks LPG, it will NEVER explode, unlike petrol. Why? Because natural gas is lighter than oxygen and will just evaporate.
- Boot space will have to be sacrificed.
- LPG covers 22 km per RM1 while petrol cover 9km per RM1 on a converted Waja.
- In a converted Waja a mixture of RM120 of NGV, and less than RM40 of petrol covers 3000km+.
- LPG is less combustible than petrol, so power is less. Although gas consumption increases by 25% per kilometer over petrol and lower gears are used more often, you still save.
- LPG conversion ranges between RM3000 and RM9000 depending on your engine. Carburetor conversion is the cheapest, followed by fuel injection and sequential injection engines.
- In Penang, where I live, the Petronas petrol station in Jalan Perusahaan, Prai, is the ONLY one that offers NGV fuel in Penang at the moment.
100 km = 11 liters petrol
100 km = 16 liters LPG

-NGV get subsidize from petronas RM2 per litre, eventually this subs will goes away just like what happen to petrol
-There has been cases NGV cars got exploded
-the gas tank is super damn heavy and NGV car is prone to get more maintenance of it’s absorber system as well as higher tyre worn out rate

Your 3rd point makes sense.
