Does LPG wear out an engine more than using petrol? Should I expect a
shorter life from a car that has been run on LPG or at least more
repairs needed?
Is it more risky buying a 2nd hand car with over 100k on clock that
has been converted to run on LPG than a standard petrol one?Could be
why the original owner got shot of it?
LPG is maybe cleaner, and doesn't contaminate the oil as much, but it's got
nothing in the way of upper cylinder lubricant. Which leads to higher wear
rates on anything in the upper cylinder (ie valves, valve seats)
