Problems With CNG In Automatic Cars
CNG is not suitable for automatic cars. You may have to face a lot of problems if you install CNG in an automatic car. Below we have told about some such problems which you may face if you do this.
Clutch Wear Problem: The fun of driving will be ruined if you get a CNG tool kit installed. This will happen because the vehicle will not have enough power to change gears easily and it will cause clutch wear. The gears in the car should change easily, if it happens with difficulty then there can be a big problem in the car. And if the clutch plate is damaged then you will have to bear a lot of money to get it repaired.
Less Acceleration Power: If you install CNG in a normal manual engine car, then when you drive the car, you will feel that the acceleration is less than before. And you are talking about installing CNG in an automatic engine car, then think how much its acceleration will drop.
High Upfront Cost: People think that CNG car is cheaper to run but it is not so, no one sees the extra expenses that come with it. The CNG car should be serviced on time. If by mistake the service is delayed for a few days, then you will have to bear heavy losses. All these things should be thought about before converting to CNG.
