I've not heard of this. Does this give you the economy of diesel with the fuel price of the LPG? That sounds almost too good to be true. |

I know a haulage company that use it on their 44 tonners and it saves them a fortune... So it must be an economy thing too

The way I understand it on the diesel engine is that a small amount gives a really clean burn. I had the speel from a salesman a few years ago, Im sure it was along the lines that up to 15 percent of diesel can go unburnt and the lpg gives total burn hence more power so your lighter on the right pedal The figures may be wrong but that was the jist of it, the thing that surprised me was the tanks for trucks were tiny they say very small amounts were needed as you are not running on it as such. |

Thought i'd best fill my engine LPG tank on my diesel motorhome last year after a few hundred miles as the four lights on the fuel gauge were showing only two lit, so about half full, and it only needed £4.50 worth of LPG.
