Frequently
asked questions about Autogas.
Are
there any special servicing requirements?
Your usual garage can continue to carry out your servicing and repairs
provided no adjustments or removal of the Autogas system are required.
Only fully trained Autogas engineers should work on the autogas system.
We are a fully operational MOT testing station, with many years experience
of servicing and repairs, and can fully satisfy these requirements as
well as the Autogas repairs where required.

Can
autogas damage my engine?
No, In fact because Autogas is a cleaner burning fuel engine life is
extended and less maintenance is required. The one exception is engines
running on leaded petrol as Autogas contains no lead, modification to
the valve seats would be required.

What
about vehicle warranty?
There is no reason for it to affect the vehicle warranty, however if
the vehicle is under warranty it needs to be checked. The Autogas system
itself is warranted for a period of one year.

What
is going to happen to the price of autogas in the future?
Currently the cost is about 38p per litre, and the government is committed
to maintaining the differential between autogas and petrol/diesel, based
on the 1998 figure. Unlike the 70’s the environment will continue to be
high on the political agenda. Plus Autogas is a cleaner running fuel,
being produced as a byproduct of other products cannot be ignored.

What
happens when I sell my vehicle?
In the future as availabilty of Autogas increases you may well find
that you will be able to sell your vehicle at a much higher premium. The
Autogas tanks life is 15 years, and the ‘Front End’ components are calibrated
with the aid of a lap top computer by our installers, and so are quite
literally matched to the car. So once having made the investment in a
Autogas kit, can continue to reep the benefits for many years.
