Default Liquid LPG Injection

Some of you were looking at the ins and outs of Liquid Injecting Propane.
I'm a Yank, so sory my measurments are in English.

The difficulties to overcome LPEFI are as follows...
1. Propane cannot hold a liquid state at underhood temps (207deg F)
2. Liquid must stay at the injector at all times while running (fuel pump
nessisary)
3. Vehicle must complete a purge cycle before starting similar to a diesel
waiting on glow plugs.
(to rid the fuel lines of vapor).
4. Fuel Pump must be inside the tank, so how do you pass wires through a
fuel tank and have it safe?


BTW
Mixing air/fuel *before* the cylinder breeds backfires and they will cause
serious problems.
Ask anyone tha has used an old Impco system.


I've used an old Impco system for about 40k miles and not had a
backfire. In that respect they are no different to any mixer type
system.
