Re: Welcome
anyone who dont jump on the bandwagon is gonna be missing out big time.
LPG engines are here to stay, they are not new, just new to many people.
LPG was used a lot during world war 2 to power a lot of industrial engines,motor cars,trucks and large boat engines.
lpg has been used in industry for a long time, and anyone who has seen a forklift will of seen a lpg powered forklift.
these engines are not special, they are simple 4 strokes with a jet into the intake for the lpg.
they are more reliable and run smoother than petrol.
the reason most boat dealers ahve not seen them is purely because they dont break as often and servicing is far less.
for the service and parts side of the engines, they are no good to a workshop, they dont break as often and therefore
no need to keep going back for parts.
i say we need more lpg outboards and more 2 stroke lpg converters.
i would jump at the chance of lpg on my 2 stroke outboard straight away.
