There are entire 2 different tank for the particular vehicle
Tank 1 – from car manufacturer 45~70 depanding on displacement* (No compression required)

NEW Tank 2 – NEWly install compressed tank at 200 bar which is weight in kg not liter. Maximum is 11kg of fuel.

One thing that is missing in your article is that running NGV shortens the life of your engine. NPV lacks the addictives added to petrol. It is a "dry" fuel and this lack of "lubrication" will shorten the life of the engine by nearly half. Some mechanics claim even worst. The most common failure is the seizure of the big end crankshaft bearings. To overcome this problem most conversions retain a dual system. I.e it still retains the petrol system. The car is switched to running petrol at least pnce every few days. I completely disagree with the bit regarding the safety features of NPV. The gas is stored under pressure and anything under pressure is extremely dangerous. Have you tried to puncture a can of aerosol? Can you imagine if in a car accident you puncture the NPV tank? One tiny spark and Bang!!!.... Trust me. A tankful of gas stored at over 50 atmospheres meeting a spark is not a pretty sight. well, you really have to travel a lot of kms to gt your conversion cost back.

The leaders can’t profit So the project is delayed Doing on half measures Till today Now they BN government has the money The leaders should buy all the toll companies Better pass a law to nationalize it for the people In this way the companies don’t demand………. Take back the utilities companies Privatization is a failure anyway Moreover the companies are owned by MOF Incorporated Yet it is again protecting cronies Where the problems lie for the people The short cut measure Change the government In a stroke many changes can happen The MPs should know what to do Conscious tells them this is the truth Let them shine for the people The stupid BN government
It makes the people suffer
This is the way I think
The leaders want the people to support them
Let you people feel the heat
You know the rule of engagement
Once you don’t agree with me
I make you suffer in your pockets

The BN government doesn’t think through
The sleeping beauty only knows how to announce
The corridors where he knows the wealth lies
The people suffering he turns a deaf trick

NGV gas stations
He should order it in plenty
Years of talking nothing really mushrooming
You see the leaders don’t get the goodies

Base on your calculation
The payback period will take a year
The subsequent hike on petrol
The motorists won’t feel the heat

Do they think about it?
The leaders can’t profit
So the project is delayed
Doing on half measures
Till today

Now they BN government has the money
The leaders should buy all the toll companies
Better pass a law to nationalize it for the people
In this way the companies don’t demand……….
Take back the utilities companies
Privatization is a failure anyway
Moreover the companies are owned by MOF Incorporated
Yet it is again protecting cronies
Where the problems lie for the people

The short cut measure
Change the government
In a stroke many changes can happen
The MPs should know what to do
Conscious tells them this is the truth
Let them shine for the people
