LPG Conversion Effects on Engine Life

Introduction to LPG Technology

At GBO Eesti, we’ve been providing turnkey LPG installation, maintenance, and repair services since 2014. Our experience has shown that modern LPG kits, from the 4th generation onwards, have two safety levels, automatic gas shut-off, and a multivalve, ensuring a safe and efficient fuel supply. For example, our Econom 900 kit for 3-4 cylinder engines is a popular choice, priced at 900 EUR, including certified parts and registration documents.

LPG Conversion and Engine Wear

LPG is a cleaner-burning fuel than petrol, producing fewer deposits and contaminants. This means that engines running on LPG tend to have lower wear rates on moving parts, such as piston rings and cylinders. However, the slightly higher consumption of LPG by volume, around 10-15% higher, can lead to increased wear on some components, like the fuel pump and injectors. Our maintenance and repair services, priced at 40 EUR/h, can help mitigate this wear.

Choosing the Right LPG Kit

The choice of LPG kit can also impact engine wear. We offer a range of kits from reputable brands like Alex, AC Stag, and Lovato. Our prices include turnkey installation and registration, ensuring a safe and efficient conversion. For instance, our Premium 1600 kit for 3-4 cylinder engines is priced at 1600 EUR.
