senoremac Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I have a 2005 toyota vios and I'm interested in converting it into a dual fuel system. Any recommendations on a reputable shop in Chiang Mai would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haybilly Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 This system is only applicable to petrol engined vehicles, I presume?? Not Diesels, I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adman Cando Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 This system is only applicable to petrol engined vehicles, I presume?? Not Diesels, I guess? Unfortunately you guess right. Diesel engines won't convert to run purely on gas - they need a small amount of diesel to fire up and run properly. There are systems out there for diesel but I've no idea which to recommend.

KRS1 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 one of the connecting roads between charoen muang and kaew nawarat has a conversion shop. It's a main(straight) connecting road. I think but not 100% sure, that it is the first intersection on charoan muang after coming in from the bridge. Make a left at the intersection, and it will be on your right. If its not then thats the wrong road ! Try another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorecard Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) There's a small stand / counter for this at Big C Don Chan. Find the 3BB cashier counter then walk to the left about 4 or 5 metres. They have lots of tanks and equipment and brochures etc., at the stand and the young Thai lady seems to be quite knowledgeable, but all in Thai language.

ataloss Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Hi, given alleged problems following private installations of LPG, why not try the manufacturer of your car, Toyota, for their recommendation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRS1 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 almost every taxi in BKK has either LPG or CNG installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickyknee Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 almost every taxi in BKK has either LPG or CNG installed. LPG and CNG are two different beasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
