Emission Certification
All SGI dual fuel kits supplied by Victorian Autogas Supplies meet the emission requirements of AS1425:2007 and come with the appropriate documentation for your protection.

Benefits of Sequential Gas Injection:
- Minimal performance difference.
- Longer engine life.
- Considerable savings in fuel costs.
- Less pollution.

Vehicle Performance on SGI:
- Only a slight increase in specific consumption compared to petrol (depending
upon engine capacity and driving habits, it can range from 10% - 20%)
- Power loss is imperceptible.
- The higher Octane rating of LPG, suppresses engine "knock" resulting in
improved engine performance and drivability.

Safety
All SGI systems designed and supplied by Victorian Autogas Supplies meet the requirements of AS1425:2007. This means each system is equipped with safety devices that eliminate the risk of explosion.

Fuel Selector Switch
(Dash mounted) The fuel selector switch is mounted on the dash. It is a "touch" type switch, which means that to operate it you simply press the
button in the centre of the switch. When petrol is selected as the fuel a red LED will glow on the switch and the petrol fuel level will be that shown on the vehicles' fuel gauge. When LPG Autogas is selected an orange LED will glow on the left hand side of the switch and a row of four green LED's will glow in the centre of the switch. These green LED's indicate the level of autogas in the LPG cylinder e.g four lights indicates a full cylinder 2 lights indicates half full etc. When all green lights go out a red LED appears in the centre section of the switch indicating you are running on the reserve level of autogas. The switch will "beep" to alert you that you are running on reserve and when this is used the vehicle will automatically switch to running on petrol and only the red LED on the top right of the switch will glow.

When starting the vehicle with autogas selected as the fuel, both the orange autogas LED will flash and the red petrol LED will glow steady. This is because the vehicle automatically starts on petrol and switches to operate on autogas when the engine temperature and RPM reach normal operating levels. It is important therefore to ensure the level of petrol does not fall below ¼ full as damage could occur to the vehicle fuel pump.

LPG filler location

	SEDAN The LPG filler on the Ford BF sedan is located in the existing petrol filler pocket, along with the petrol filler. Having the filler in this location maintains the vehicles’ original design presentation.
	WAGON The LPG filler on the Ford BF wagon is located in the existing petrol filler pocket, along with the petrol filler. Having the filler in this location maintains the vehicles’ original design presentation.
	UTILITY The LPG filler on the Ford BF Utility is located in the existing petrol filler pocket, along with the petrol filler. Having the filler in this location maintains the vehicles’ original design presentation. On the Ford BA cab chassis the filler is located next to the petrol filler under the tray.

Cylinder Location

	SEDAN There are two options available: 1. The cylinder is located behind the rear seat squab. This cylinder gives you 52 useable litres of LPG; or 2. A toroidal cylinder can be located in the spare wheel well and gives you 68 useable litres of LPG. The spare wheel is then mounted on a bracket in the boot. (picture shows the spare tyre location when toroidal cylinder is installed)
	WAGON The LPG storage cylinder for the Ford BF wagon is located beneath the cargo area in place of the spare wheel. The storage cylinder holds a total of 68 useable litres of LPG. The spare wheel is relocated to the drivers side of the rear cargo area, using an upright engineered vehicle specific wheel bracket. The size of the wagon cargo area, and the cylinder location, still provides the driver with roomy luggage and cargo accommodation.
	UTILITY Mid mount cylinder location, where the LPG storage cylinder is mounted under the vehicle in the middle, holding a useable 60 litres of LPG.

All LPG cylinders are tested in accordance to the relevant design rules and Australian Standards.
