nah man.... I think people who talk about drastic power loss on CNG either had shiddy tuning or were driving cars that didn't have any power to begin with.

Had an A32 on CNG which would easily run up to 160km/h with AC on while being far more economical than my diesel C33.

Plus apparently ppl don't realize that you could flick a switch to go back to gasoline anytime, even while driving.

I am not saying no to an alternative fuel, but there are hardly any options on the market. They talk about the gas subsidy, but take back that money in the MVT and duty. The CNG kit offset the entire balance of a vehicle and adds a considerable amount of weight. It's a step backward especially for regular passenger cars. I hearing they might even want to remove subsidy on diesel too.

What is your actual experience with having CNG in a vehicle?
It weighs less than a passenger, and the music boxes some folks put in their vehicles would be a whole lot more likely to offset its balance.

for those who have music boxes that's all fine and well but what about those who not so idle and actually use their trunk space??

I hope before subsidy on fuels gets removed the gov leads by example by having all ministers and ministries convert their vehicles to CNG as well.

some who speak with so much conviction never had CNG in their car, yet spew BS with so much authority it's amazing.

[nervewrecker]

70lb? so light that tank is? Looks plenty heavier to me.

[RollaCoaster]

A car with more power to begin with will have a larger engine... since we have a draconian engine tax system most of us are stuck with 1.3s to 1.8s...

Global trend is to smaller high compression engines as well, I'm not sure how well they will work on CNG.

Also read that LPG seems to be a better option... who made the call that CNG is the way to go?

he cyah ask ah question about gas on an automotive forum?

[redmanjp]

this CNG had better be cost effective by next year (when super goes up according to the Finance Minister)

[RollaCoaster]

I wonder if this CNG drive cost effective for anyone? The removal of tax on CNG kits and then there is the cost to the government to outfit gas stations with the CNG stations. Then there is the cost to buy and install the whole system. Any CNG experts out there?

1. How is the CNG kit working with the fuel injection system?
2. Does the kit have to be for the specific vehicle?
3. Cost to install.
4. Any local dealers offering CNG vehicles? I know there is the removal of MVT and Custom duties on vehicles that come with the CNG.

[pete]

Would also like to know who sells kits for EFI engines.

[jm3]

this whole cng thing the covernment is pulling seems like a massive massive fail

[shogun]

lol @ "gov't ministers" and "lead by example" in the same sentence.

ACL has, for years.

[pete]

Was not aware. Thanks for the information. When I go to renew my battery warranty I'll ask them about the cost.

[Midnight_Demon]

70lb? so light that tank is? Looks plenty heavier to me.

The 70lb tank actually weighs 150lbs...

[curtisg]

The cost to install is $12000 and yes they work on all injected engines.The performance is quite good compared with the old draft system where they cut you intake to install a mixer.These new Electronic Sequential Injected systems perform really well.

Hypnosis? Really? The distribution network that is coming soon looks promising though.

Campaign to ‘hypnotise’ nation to CNG
Originally printed at http://www.trinidadexpress.com/business ... 49311.html

By Carolyn Kissoon
May 3, 2013
THE National Energy Corporation of Trinidad and Tobago (NEC) has embarked on a campaign to “hypnotise” the nation into converting vehicles to compressed natural gas (CNG), chairman Roop Chan Chadeesingh said yesterday.

And he suggested that Government ministers and corporate managers lead by example and convert their own vehicles to CNG fuel.

Neal and Massy Administrative Ltd yesterday delivered the first seven of a fleet of 22 CNG vehicles to be used by NEC employees.

The vehicles were handed over during a ceremony at NEC’s administrative building in Couva.

Speaking at the function, Chadeesingh said, NEC and the National Gas Company (NGC) were awaiting Cabinet approval to drive the CNG campaign.

“There is no way we as a Government can ask Trinidad and Tobago to convert and use CNG when the chairmen, ministers and the prime minister are not using it. We have to lead by example,” he said.

Chadeesingh said the campaign would include billboards along the highway on the benefits of CNG.

“NEC has partnered with Neal and Massy to provide its employees with a suitable, safer and environmentally friendly alternative to leaded and unleaded fuel with the introduction of this first fleet of seven CNG vehicles, with 15 more vehicles expected this year. The change from regular fuel to CNG is in direct support of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago’s continued efforts to encourage citizens to make the transition to this cleaner form of fuel,” he said.

Chadeesingh said CNG was a cheaper form of fuel--half the price of super gasolene.

“It is also a cleaner form of fuel and contains no additives. It burns cleanly leaving no by-products of combustion to contaminate spark plus and engine oil.
