My email has been floated with lot of inquiry about Conversion. It was estimated the NGV conversion business has increased by at least 400% according to one of the installer source.

Most of the installers in Klang Valley have to put the customer in queue as the demand for conversion increase tremendously just the last two weeks.

With the increase in conversion, I can expected to see this coming few months more car problems posting in the community as it is expected during the initial stage of conversion. This is because our car was design to burn petrol and not CNG. To adjust the car engine to burn CNG, you need to have proper service to your car engine if possible to good condition, get a right engine oil , gearbox oil, good coolant and spark plug. All this information are available in the forum. All you need, is to do a search in the forum using the sponsored google search engine at the top of the forum for the recommended brand for the above oil or coolant and spark plug.

No doubt that everyone is looking for alternative ways to save travel expenses. For those that unable to convert at this moment you can look for other alternative to save fuel . There are lot of fuel saving device out there that able save fuel.

Next we will discuss more ways to save fuel consumption.

Increase Petrol Price mean More $aving per Year for NGV users!

By refering to my posting http://philipngngv.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html

With the increase of petrol price by 40%

My latest saving as at June 2008 is

Price per Kilometer comparision
Petrol RM0.22 / km (Before Increase RM1.92)
Petrol RM0.31 / km (After Increase RM2.70 increase 40%)
NGV RM0.06 / km

Saving of RM0.16 /km (Before Increase RM1.92)
Saving of RM0.25 /km (After Increase RM2.70 increase 40%)

that is about 73% saving (Before Increase RM1.92)
that is about 80% saving (After Increase RM2.70 increase 40%)

If I were to drive 60km daily for 30 days per month.

Total distance 60 x 30 = 1800km
Total fuel price consume per month:Petrol RM0.22 x 1800 = RM396 (Before Increase)
Total fuel price consume per month:Petrol RM0.31 x 1800 = RM558 ( After Increase)
Natural Gas(CNG) RM0.06 x 2100 = RM108

Saving per month is RM288 (Before Increase RM1.92)
Saving per month is RM450 (After Increase RM2.70 increase 40%)

Yearly Saving RM288 x 12 = Rm3456
Yearly Saving RM450 x 12 = Rm5400

The above calculation is base on my car condition in 2006. Now is 2008, let reduce the saving by 10% due to the reason, the get car older and become inefficient in fuel consumption.

Yearly Saving Rm3456 x 0.90 = RM3110
Yearly Saving Rm5400 x 0.90 = RM4860

With the additional rebate of RM625 upon paying road tax for car below 2000cc , my saving per year would be

RM4860 + Rm625 = RM5485 per year

Per Month Saving RM5485/12 = RM457


Investment Point of View
If you were to get RM457 per month from bank for Fixed Deposit at 3.7% per year, you have to deposit RM148,243 in bank.

Dear Malaysian, for an average income family, do you think you have RM148,243 in Bank?

or willing

to invest around RM2900 to RM3200 for Carburetor Car
or invest around Rm5500 to RM6500 for Fuel Injection Car

for NGV Conversion.

Installment available for credit card user. Use the saving for installment. Probably you got extra $ after paying the installment .

Worries?
1)Stop worry about queue ?
You can always find the right time to pump NGV. Furthermore, more and more has been built lately which mean less queue. The best about converting to NGV, you still have the option to use petrol, just in case run out of gas.
2) Worry no power?

Petrol Price Increase today 4 June 2008 to RM2.70 / Litre

The petrol price increase from Rm1.92 to RM2.70 today which is about 40% increase.

By referring to Petrol price for the past 18 years since 1990

before 1990 - RM 0.89
Year 1990 - RM 1.10 (increase RM 0.21)
01/10/2000- RM 1.20 (increase RM 0.10)
20/10/2001- RM 1.30 (increase RM 0.10)
01/05/2002- RM 1.32 (increase RM 0.02)
31/10/2002- RM 1.33 (increase RM 0.01)
01/03/2003- RM 1.35 (increase RM 0.02)
01/05/2004- RM 1.37 (increase RM 0.02)
01/10/2004- RM 1.42 (increase RM 0.05)
05/05/2005- RM 1.52 (increase RM 0.10)
31/07/2005- RM 1.62 (increase RM 0.10)
28/02/2006- RM 1.92 (increase RM 0.30)
04/06/2008- RM 2.70 (increase RM 0.78)

It is the worst increase in history.

Wondering why should we always compare ourselves with Thailand, Singapore and South Korea which are net importers of oil?

Even Indonesia has just declared itself as net importer recently due to its aging oil field and lack of foreign investment in exploration in anticipation to political instability.

Why does Malaysia need to compare its oil price with these net importing countries whereby we are net exporter of oil in the world?

Why! Why! Why!

Just a day after the announcement of the increases, the following developments have taken place:
1) Bus and lorry companies announced that they are increasing charges or will be forced to stop services;
2) The Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers said its members will pass on any increase in costs to consumers;
3) Hawkers and other food operators will wait and see before raising prices; and
4) The KLCI closed 29.56 points down, to 1223.56 points. Plantation and banking counters as well as PLUS were the most affected.

It was a good news for NGV user that the Natural Gas price remain the same.

Is time to convert to NGV today!
