Frequently
asked questions about Autogas.
What
happens if I run out of either petrol or Autogas?
If you run out of petrol the system can be run and started safely on
Autogas, and if you run out of Autogas, just press the switch and you
are back running on petrol.

Will
I lose performance?
The conversion to autogas is not a performance aid, due mainly to its
lower calorific value, engine power will be reduced by around 5%
top
How
many miles will I get to the gallon?
Due to autogas having a 20% lower calorific value than petrol or diesel
you will expect to see a reduction in MPG (Range Rover 3.9 does 17MPG
on petrol or 14 MPG on Autogas) which still represents a significant saving.

How
do I know how much Autogas is left in the tank?
Built into the changeover switch is an LED gauge display, which will
indicate the tank contents.

Where
can the tank go, and will I lose boot space?
Unfortunately one draw back of an Autogas conversion is that an Autogas
tank will have to be installed, usually in the vehicle load area. Autogas
tanks are available in a vast range of sizes to suit most vehicles these
can be matched to your particular requirements of space and expected mileage
range. Some conversions use a petrol tank and Autogas tank option to fit
in place of original petrol tank, this type however is vehicle specific.
