One of the main disadvantages of gas equipment in the car is the high cost of its installation. Depending on which car brand, engine model or model of equipment itself, the price varies from 400 to $ 2,000. In the event that your car spends on average 7-8 liters of gasoline one hundred kilometers drive, the installation of this equipment will not pay off immediately, but somewhere for two to three years.
In addition, the likelihood increases that the gasoline pump is broken. The mechanical can fail, since you will have to install the fuel supply valve either before the pump itself, or after it. In the first version, the fuel pump will have to work “for dry” and therefore the valve is quickly erased and the energy efficiency of pumping equipment is reduced, in the second case the pump will constantly be forced to put pressure on the closed valve, which will lead to a breakdown of its seals and membranes. It should be noted that the electric gas pump will not be disconnected when the car will go by gas. As a result, the installers often turn off the nozzles. This is dictated by the fact that, in order to turn off the electric pump, you need a computer’s computer, and this is not quite simple and often far from everyone’s involvement. In addition, if in the machines of European models, this is possible theoretically, then in Japanese cars in no way.
It should also be noted that during the installation of gas equipment on your car there is a great opportunity that installers can accidentally damage the electric circuits of the car. So, in the signaling system, as well as the fuel supply system, they will definitely climb.
Another inconvenience of the gas installation is that the gas cylinder, as a rule, occupies a lot of useful space in your trunk.
Significant disadvantages are also a violation of the hanging of your car and a decrease in traction.
