LPG Conversions?

What are the pros and cons of LPG conversions?

Answers:
Pros:
Same performance and consumption, while LPG is a lot cheaper than fuel.
In London at least - no congestion charge


Cons:
Not available everywhere.
Pricey conversion
LPG is cheaper, about half the price of petrol in the UK, but you get a slightly lower fuel efficency, the nozzles at petrol stations differ from some countries to others (you can get adaptors though), not all petrol stations do LPG, and you can't have them on the Channel Tunnel (at the moment).
Quite an expensive conversion,although once done you can start saving money on fuel !.You will need to change spark plugs more often and make sure there are no Gas leaks around the manifold(quite common) can cause back fires and often can be expensive to repair .
there are 1300 lpg stations in the uk so i heard on the radio
Pros - it's cheap

Cons - Your car will smell like a fart factory
costly to convert and not readily available every where.
Pro's are a cleaner burning fuel and the lower fuel tax

Con's are lower calorific value compared to petol so if you want the same performance you have to use more although lower fuel tax still offsets this at the moment
