Abeg GAZZUZZ na Elder, no dey call am Mugu. Make we try get respect for our elders. He should be close to 50yrs.

Felicity0001:
My thought exactly... Nigerian politicians always out to frustrate every single means the citizens innovate to escape their excesses.

Just like you said, this is the best time to join the bang wagon b4 they wake up to it. I spend 60-80k on fuel alone weekly just to move around for business and faji... What for naw!


GAZZUZZ one last question, how many of your personal cars have you installed this CNG?

Can it be transferred easily to another car i.e when I want to sell of the car?

Felicity0001:
Better!

I watched all the videos including the economic test drive from Lag-Ibadan to and fro

The ignition and then the crash test.

I think more awareness needs to be done before any adverts for sales because it's natural for people to be scared especially on a new innovations, rather than ask prospective or interested customers to contact you privately for educative information.

EV and HVs have been in used/existence for a very long time yet Nigerians are still scared of buying or owning one.

Even the cooking gas almost every home both in remote areas are now using there was once a time even lagosians were scared of using it. Many landlord won't even allow you use cooking gas in their houses, so it's normal for Nigerians, civilization us far away from us... Illiteracy is our major problem in this part if the world.


So, it's a good innovation and I would like to ask, GAZZUZZ what will it cost me to install a CNG in my car, I'm interested

Mugu

datola:
Better.

But why not include CNG cylinders and other accessories to bring down the cost of converting petrol car to CNG very affordable.

PS712:
For collaboration purposes, please provide contact. I've sent you DM.

GAZZUZZ:
I am sure you wondering how i came to this conclusion?

For perspective the cylinder wall thickness of the type1 cylinders I usually use are between 6mm and 7mm thick.

Again the chassis (frame) of a regular passenger vehicle in the 1940s - 1960s cars had 1-2 mm body sheet metal, while in modern cars it usually doesn't exceed 0,6 - 0,8 mm.

The hardest components in a vehicle equipped with CNG are the engine , transmission, axles and the CNG tank/tanks.

Again CNG is combustible but has a lower flash point

High auto ignition temperature
CNG is less likely to auto-ignite on hot surfaces, since it has a high auto-ignition temperature (540 degrees centigrade) and a narrow range (5%-15%) of in flammability. It means that if CNG concentration in the air is below 5% or above 15%, it will not burn. This high ignition temperature and limited flammability range makes accidental ignition or combustion very unlikely.

Lush100:
My line of thought is that the gas will be burnt out in 10 mins meaning the vehicle cannot be salvaged from that fire incident whereas in liquid (PMS) though also highly flammable one or 2 items maybe salvaged before totally being burnt (especially where fire extinguisher is used).

Lush100:
No sir
I do not think CNG are safer.

Ask any Fire fighter, the most combustible state of heat (ignition) is the gaseous state.

I'm not saying there are no merits however if u are looking at safety then u may take the electric vehicles .

But again even the government, have they put in place the technical apparatus to fight cars ignited under CNG.?

GAZZUZZ u are a road side mechanic that tinks he knows more than everyone else.Natural gas is my field n i hav years of xperience dealing wit it.I hav personally converted my petrol generator to LPG/petrol as far back as 2016.Its jst a change of carburettor to d gas burning one n its not a rocket science.U are not d only on3 wit knowledge on cars even though i do recognise u hav more knowledge than d average road side mechanic bt nevertheless u still are an upgraded road side mechanic.
My advice to anyone is do no convert ur vehicle yet.convert generators n machines bt dont trust this guys converting cars in naija uet until its proven beyond reasonable doubt to be safe. Gazzuz jst want to make money frm recommending or doing d job.

I guess the govt also wants to make money from the average Nigerian too?

Neoteny7:
So why is it required for drivers in some countries to exit their vehicles when refueling?

Blakjewelry:
How is it a propaganda? He sees a business opportunity and he is taking advantage of it. The only problem with cng is the non availability nationwide. Not everybody will convert even if it's everywhere plus it is dual purpose so you can still run your petrol whenever you want, it's not everything una see una must only look through the negative glass.

Blakjewelry:
First off when you do research on cng, you will see the need for quality material especially the tank some people want to go for substandard which is not advisable, even at that it doesn't mean every substandard tanks explodes it's rare but just a precaution.

Secondly you get what you are looking for in YouTube search. Search for petrol car explosion or kitchen cooking gas explosion, you find tons of it doesn't mean it is regular occurrence. There are usually isolated cases but it will seems as if it is norm but it's not.

Currently people are using it in Benin because there is cng stations around, how many incidence have you heard about.

How much did gazzuzz pay you for this response ?


Nice one

obesse:
Gazzuzz, how many of such cars have you bought and used in your lifetime?

bdon123:
Gazzuzz i will only buy a car that came with cng fuel not a converted one.my reason being durability of components. Component used in making petrol car cannot be same for cng due to properties of d gas.

diportivo:
you that you are standing up,is anybody forcing you to do cng?

people like u will still be using kerosene to cook because gas is flammable

Cumrade easy

Akwamkpuruamu:
Gazzuzz, are you paid by the FG to propagate the CNG?

LordGuru1:
Gazzuz my guy! The sky is your limit. I forwarded you last thread to my Abuja WhatsApp Group, expect many Clients from Abuja axis soon.

In another News:

Dshocker:
Mr GAZZUZZ you and i know that CNG is more dangerous than Petrol.

DarlingtonC:
Oga the risks should be an open information. It is time wasting to contact you for such information

rdsco:
I'm sorry about that.
I was just concerned about safety. Being that we're in nigeria.

well, since these yellow buses have been using it and we've not heard about any issue before, I'm guessing it's safe to use then.
