Cars equipped with a gas system have to cope with harder working conditions than when using only gasoline for driving. In particular, the high impact of propane-butane mixture can be seen in relation to the ignition system. The highest frequency of the problem with ignition is noted in the winter season, however, elements such as spark plugs should be properly maintained throughout the year.

It is influenced by several factors, however, the most important is the characteristics of propane-butane mixture. And in particular, the higher combustion temperature than in the case of fuel, which is gasoline. It is not worth it, however, to worry about frequent candle replacements or more susceptibility of the ignition system to failures. Producers of candles, observing the growing popularity of the car and the LPG installation, introduced to their offer special candles with a longer lifespan and parameters adapted to this mixture gas & oacute w.

In today's article, we will try to explain whether their purchase is profitable from an economic point of view. How will this affect the engine's performance? And most importantly, whether their assembly is necessary.

Gas candles

There are divided sentences on the subject of car candles. Next, a large part of the workshop will stay with the candles recommended by the manufacturer in the car, and the candles for gas only consider marketing gimmick.

However, the ever-growing circle of mechanics appreciates this solution due to the smaller electric power, the ignition is faster and easier. This is related to the material from which the candles are made. Renowned manufacturers use in their products materials such as platinum or iridium, which have high melting points, which makes it possible to use thinner electrodes than in the case of classic candles.

Candles for LPG - price

Price criterion is the key when choosing candles, in the case of those referred to as gas the price is noticeably higher than in the case of traditional and recommended by the manufacturer models. However, if the price is not a determinant for you, we recommend choosing products from a reliable manufacturer & oacute. We can certainly name companies such as NGK or BOSCH.

Ignition cables

The company has also created special lines for automotive & gas & gas. However, here it is also a theory that it is only a marketing gimmick, aimed at extracting additional resources from the driver in an LPG installation.

It is difficult to say how much of this truth, but certainly in the more expensive ignition wires dedicated to gas installations, we can find a much more resistant to the characteristics of the core work. The most common cables are:

  • carbon core,
  • copper core,
  • ferrite core.

The ferrite (ferromagnetic) cables are considered to be the best, where the smallest voltage drops are recorded, thanks to which ignition is possible even in adverse weather conditions.

Important r & oacute; also the braid, which should be made of weather-resistant material or contact with oils and greases.

How many replace ignition wires?

Ignition cables, which many people forget about r & oacute, as well as consumables that need to be taken care of from time to time. It should be checked from time to time that they are not exposed to long-term action of oil & oil, or grease, because it may reduce their life. For this, checking that they are not damp can have a beneficial effect on their lifetime. Here it is important to follow the recommendations of the manufacturer & oacute, which often give different values. However, in the case of cars that use gas as fuel, it is worth to exchange for a replacement after traveling from 50,000 thousand. kilometer & oacute; up to 80,000 thousand kilometer & oacute; in. In case our car is moving using LPG, we must decide earlier.
