LPG ON A C200 K

[COPAEG]

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MOUNTING ON A MB C200 K, YEAR BUILD, 2001, A LPG KIT?

IS IT ANYBODY HAVE ON HIS OWN CAR?

I AM PLANNING TO BUY ONE (SPECIALLY NOW WHEN THE PRICE OF OIL IS GOING HIGHER AN HIGHER), BUT I AM NOT QUITE SHURE IF THAT WILL NOT DAMAGE THE ENGINE SOMEHOW....

TELL PLEASE YOUR HONEST OPINION: WHY SHOULD OR SHOULDN'T USE LPG ON MY MB.

THANKS.

Do not install LPG on your supercharged c200.

A lot of lags and it will harm your engine.

Also...I often see gas stations with LGP system.. I dont think all gas stations have LGP..

One more, hard to sell your car in the future...

Why hard to sell? People will love proven solutions if LPG system is fully integrated on a kompressor engine...

I don't think people in the U.S. understand what you are doing. In many european countries, LPG conversions are very popular because goverments have much lower taxes on that fuel and there are financial incentives to do it. In the U.S. there are no incentives to convert cars to LPG or CNG so I doubt anybody has done it here. There are incentives to buy cars that come as CNG from the factory like the Honda Civic-G.

Also, while there are many, many gas stations that sell LPG in the U.S., only a very small handful have dispensors for automotive use.
