Brothers i'm running my car on LPG with the same CNG KIT & Cylinder....... with some adjustments & utilised the same cylinder for LPG ..... so its giving me some economical drive ....

i have 1300cc Toyota corrola 1999

1 Litter Patrol = 113Rs/L = 13/km per litter

1 KG PG = 115Rs/kg = 22/km per KG

so its better now,,,,,

its pic is also even more better then patrol even.....

no doubt LPG is more power full than CNG and Petrol but this form of GAS easily increases Wear and Tear of your engine parts in long run and your engine then cannot perform well on both of Alternate Fuels so I advise not to go for Conversion

I just phoned 1199 the help line of SNGPL about CNG station opening in lahore and they have no update on that.

CNG Should be open now in Lahore.

[chdemon]

Here you go..

lala u got it all wrong :). they will provide just 1 day. not 4 days

[a_n_memon88]

With due respect to anyones opinions I think CNG should be completely banned in all the Pakistan not just any specific areas. The reason is low gas pressure for households, no gas provided to industry, no gas for fertilizers, no gas for IPPS. These all are above CNG in priority.

CNG was closed in punjab for 3 months, what happened did our economy stop, did the transport sector close down. The answer is no. Transport can run on petrol and LPG but there are things which depend only on gas so provide them gas rather than wasting in transportation

CNG Should be open now in Lahore.

Last week a meeting held in isbd.
Minister shahid khakaan abbasi with CNG association (ghyas paracha), minister said that rite now they cannot provide gas to CNG sector.

I have heard that it will be opened in or after 2nd week of march.

With Due respect CNG users consume 8% of the stock and generate 24% of revenue and provide the much needed reduction in import bill,,, but the 55% + of gas going to fertiliser plants on dirt cheap rates is non stop even though they charge around the same as imported stuff which is double the cost in India, just cuz those 7 factories (one of which is largest in the world) belong to some very powerful men i mean WTF !!! Largest plant in world,,, that could have been planted in say Kazakhstan where natural gas is super cheap,, my car was never CNG'd as i could afford petrol but i feel the pain, i have seen many ppl with small cars who almost stored their cars for 3 months,, these people pay 5 times the price but get nothing,,, thanks to the monopoly of oil companies and Fertiliser plants CNG will be dead by next year. and before some one quotes me on farmers opinion making things expensive id like to explain i am one of them did my math, we are screwed over a lot more by electricity costs, fake pesticides and blood sucking dealers.

Mohtaram chdemon Sahib,
I would beg to differ sir. It's not a question of improving things but putting ourselves in the right direction. We have to prioritise our priorities. We need gas first in our homes to run our kitchens, then in our electricity generating plants, after that comes our industry, we need gas to make fertilizer and then last and the least is transport. We have an alternative source to run our wheels and that is petroleum. We don't need CNG in our cars.

As far as improving things, I doubt anything will improve in our country at least in our lifetime, we've messed up things to such an extent. This also doesn't warrant us to deprive our people of gas in their kitchens.

Our other main problem is population explosion which is outrunning our country's resources. Demand is increasing day by day because of which things are getting worse for every commodity and that's true for gas too. I think if we banned CNG from transport altogether, that will be a step in the right direction.

Several years back, learned technocrats at OGDC warned everybody about the dangers of switching vehicles to CNG in the form of the gas crisis of today. The main reason it was done was because a corrupt Mafia wanted to make money and only it could import CNG kits. Tons of kits were imported into Pakistan by that Mafia and several folds of profit was made with a percentage of commission fixed for government officials. The main intention of switching to CNG was corrupt: make corrupt money.

Last day when i refilled my car with petrol, i just ask to the petrol filler that when the CNG will be open in Lahore? He said it will open after 15th of March.

[usman_kh1]

@supereagle,,, sir i agree with you,,, but there is a mafia in everything, IPPS are paid to make electricity using oil not Gas, every one is after the 8% consuming CNG sector and not the big cats, i know its a must we give gas to homes and industry first, but this 8% of consumer being totally cut down instead of reducing supply by just 10-15 % for fertiliser plants is not justified, as you stated your self people spend there hard earned money on CNG kits and Cylinders and now they are being denied of there rights, DAP costs i around 4500rs and Urea is close to 2000 (in market govt rate is 1875). imported stuff is the same price but banned, and in India (From where we want to open agriculture trade) DAP costs around 2000 PKR and urea is 450 PKR,,,, simple economics suggest not to produce something if u can buy it cheaper and put those resources to where u can actually make a saving,,, Simply put a 10-15% short fall to Fertiliser plants can easily be comprehended by imports, which can save from a Total Shut down of CNG,

Mohtaram Usmaan Sahib,
Imagine how much good we would bring to our motherland if we banned petrol in cars, switched every wheel in the country to CNG, imported fertilizer from Kazakhstan; that would certainly cut our import bill a lot, and yes we are forgetting banning diesel tractors and producing CNG tractors. I think if I said all this to a learned OGDC technocrat, he would rather feel like shooting me.

yar supereagle, once you started a thread about locks. Abylock or something like that, i need that in lahore, where from can i get in lahore? any idea ?

[usman_kh1]

Easy janab,,, Baby steps,,, lets just fight for the middle class joe ,, the salaried person, i am not saying go crazy with CNG nor i am saying it should stay forever ... all i am saying is if we can give relief to millions of people by not killing CNG, and reducing supply to the Largest Plant in the world, it would be a bit easier for them to survive the current economic conditions.
