My CNG conversion

How many dispensers? Very crucial. If only one. F*** them! In JB, you need 2 islands with 4 dispensers to really keep the Q moving. Else it is going to be a slow inching hour just to fill your CNG cylinder! unimpressed.gif

Nabeh! One with two hoses only good for ulu places like Jln Gangsa in the middle of Pasir Gudang Industrial Estate next to the Johor Port. KNN! SPC Talk big only. furious.gifThey think traffic will not be high. Wait until all the PI cars start Qing up and the taxi drivers will start to KPKB.

Well, looking at the station, since there is no big cyclinders anywhere in view, i presume that the cng dispenser will be supplied directly through their gas pipeline. SHould be able to acheive good dispensing pressure if that is the case.

Hi Genie,

 

It seems that there are lot of residue in my tank. I pumped only 9.9kg of gas when the indicator appeared red and my tank is 66L type. Maybe I should talk to Melcher whether we can improve on this.

Wait a minute. You pumped in gas while the indicator is red? That means there is still gas in it. When I use my gas, it completely fizzes out as in not enough gas in it to have a pressure reading. The car automatically switches to petrol.

 

Don't worry. You got some more gas in it even at red. Nice thing about a bifuel car is that you can run out of gas and the system switches over to petrol. Just try for once use the CNG until the car switches over to petrol. When you pump the gas, it should be more than a measely 9.9kg.

Hi Genie,

 

I have been travelling without gas for 3 days before the pumping in JI. The system switches to petrol everytime. So I can confirm that the system "think" I have no gas.

Take KJE exit Woodlands Rd. Turn to Mandai Rd.

 

Or take KJE into BKE, exit Mandai Rd, U-turn to it.

 

Or dont' take KJE. Go straight to Woodlands Rd then turn to Mandai Rd.

Got information why there is no compressor or big cylinders in view.

 

The system they are using is the Microbox from Gallileo. It is an all-in-one. The compressor, storage and everything all in one. That is why there is one dispenser island with two dispensers.

 

Still I think SPC is damn kuku to rent out that space to SembGas. Yes, it is rented space to SembGas to do the CNG business.

 

When it opens, confirm got taxi driver KPKB.

Looks like heartland have to wait ... see how. Where did you get your thermostat housing the metal version? the plastic thingy looks like not gonna hold due to the heat and was replaced with new ones because of heat and pressure. It also show signs of coolant residue not confirmed yet. My radiator cap have tiny crack on the inside pressure valve and also was replaced. The cooling system seems to be heating up when on CNG and causing a failure to the plastics. Still monitoring and hope for the best. My engine oil temp hit 130~145 deg C without aircon. With aircon it maintains somewhere 105 deg c constant. Funny part is that the temp hardly move up but i know the coolant is hot. Maybe next change engine oil will go for the 40 weight instead of 30 weight oil for precaution sake.

Will update more.
