Apparently no-one else on the globe feels strongly about this topic - yet the quality of LP fuel can have a direct effect on uptime, productivity, safety and cost of ownership. Forklift machine reputations are also affected as no-one seems to consider the importance of using LP gas with the right calorific value and without gumming impurities which clog up sensitive systems. Finally, when the truck fails to start, very often the operator will try to get it going by fiddling with the gas system. This can have disastrous effects. Would be interested in anyone's comments on the foregoing.
