That convertor used compressed natural gas though. But, apparently LPG weighs around 0.51KG per litre - https://www.elgas.com.au/blog/389-lpg-conversions-kg-litres-mj-kwh-and-m3/ - I'm not sure of the difference between LPG and natural gas. Although, that relation makes more sense, but still that would be close to R20 per litre anyway. So it's not really a saving as such vs petrol.

Blegh. I studied economics, none of this science nonsense.

"An amount of 8/9/10 Kg. CNG is stored in 40/50/60 litre size cylinder respectively."

Realised long a go people will be idiots forever. Drag racing between every traffic light is the national sport. Nobody seems to realise that one of your worst enemies are harsh acceleration followed immediately by harsh braking.
Never mind, I was just thinking out loud.

yep. Don't ask why, but it works like magic. ( I think it's something about heater to heat the air and aircon to keep it dry - but I could be wrong. I just know it works.)
Hot air can has more capacity for absorbing moisture more easily than colder air. So it does just that and absorbs all the moisture off the windshield

What happened to using a oily rag from the boot? You know, the one you used after the last oil change? Keeps my windscreen clear.

With anti-syphon built in most cars?

Wait, let me rephrase that.
Use a cutting torch on the tank and make your own hole.
