LPG is also much cheaper there.

That is my video on my 4wd.
The LPG fumigation rate is 0.4% of the incoming air, the engine is cold and running at idle.
It's a direct injection Isuzu with compression ~18:1.
If it detonates in that at idle, then what's it going to be doing in an engine with higher compression when warm and with extra air heat from the turbo?
