Perfect....more torque. Im not intrested in stress of the engine......I just want more power/torque When the engine goes bang it'll have had to much and I'll turn it back a bit for the next engine. It'll only inject gas at full throttle/max boost....the whole point is more power/torque. Nothing to do with mpg.

Think you are having a laugh aren't you. I detect a bit of a dreamer here.
<--- its in the pic...its an offroad toy used once a month. 300tdis are almost free....somettimes the are free. The engine fitted just know cost -£150, yes thats minus £150, want to buy some disco parts so I can make even more money from the rotten disco it came out of
Ive been a mechanic for 35 years and grew up with diesel engines and tractors. SO have a lot more practicle knowledge than youd think. Somebody has to try this stuff so the copy/pasters have something to pick holes in
Same as lpg in a petrol then. Luck my Rangie has lpg fitted to it when it was a v8.
Savings!
Bloody stuff costs a fortune! We get 47kg for our cooker, think they are about 60quid a pop! I actually pay a few quid more to get them form the closest place, cos I hate driving around with them in me motor.A somewhat sweeping statement. He seems to ignore the fact that theu need to be atomised and mixed in a nice proportion with air first. Doubt if a pile of coal dust is likely to ignite!
If that is your thing, you go right ahead!Perfect....more torque.

I cannot imagine that approach will appeal to the majority of users, tbh.I wouldnt dream of letting lpg anywhere near my V8 either!Same as lpg in a petrol then. Luck my Rangie has lpg fitted to it when it was a v8.
When you buy it at an LPG station it's far cheaper, ~60p a litre, orange bottle are an expensive way to get Propane. Also a 3.5mm carbon-steel gas tank is a lot safer than a 1.5mm mild steel or plastic petrol tank that everyone seems to accept. Petrol is also faster buring!Savings!
Coal dust is very explosive, as are many other dust types including custard powder and milk whitener,A somewhat sweeping statement. He seems to ignore the fact that theu need to be atomised and mixed in a nice proportion with air first. Doubt if a pile of coal dust is likely to ignite!
Why not, there are lots of people creating myths about LPG, truth is I've run it in my V8 as the ONLY fuel for 15 years without issue. It's also standard for many fork lifts and they clock up thousands of hours without a problem.I wouldnt dream of letting lpg anywhere near my V8 either!
I stated in that sentence "but these are a one way conversion", you seem to have made an assumption this is still a compression ignition engine. Sorry for the confusion, when converting a Diesel to full time LPG, the injector is removed and a spark plug installed assuming that there is enough material available around the injector hole for a larger diameter spark plug. This is why I did say originally this is a one way conversion.
