Guys,waiting for your advice..
Thanks, |
Hi Bangboy,
Hope this helps:-
1.If I do it now,will it void the company warranty.Is it better to wait for couple of years and then do the conversion?
Ans:- Yes it will. Ideally you should wait for the warranty period to get over, however if you feel that the savings from the conversion override the advantages from warranty, do go ahead. It depends on your daily run.
2.Can Palio 1.2 run on a CNG?
Ans:Yes.
3.Can I have either LPG/CNG to go in parallel with Petrol (since the LPG/CNG stations aren't many - atleast in Bangalore) ?
Ans: All kits are dual fuel.

Ans: LPG 20k + RTO reg (1K). CNG 40K + RTO (1K)... with LPG there is a marginal loss of power, which you might not be able to make out. with CNG you can make out the power loss distinctly. But the savings with CNG is substantially more than with LPG.
