Should you start your car on LPG?

OR

Start your car on Petrol, rev to 2,000 rpm, then push the button to switch to LPG?

You can start a car on lpg but don't rev it as it will back fire etc

So it's better for the engine to actually start on LPG rather than switch over to LPG from Petrol (while the engine is running)?

most duel fuel (if not all?) cars start using petrol even when gas is selected... thats why they say not to let the fuel tank run under 1/4, you will find most gas cars also say in big letters "do not touch accelerator when starting"

the search button is now working... consider this next time before creating another thread on something thats covered once a month

Cheers Cam
