Dear friends,
I have parked my car that is CNG fitted and shall remain parked for almost 6 months.Do i need to take any precautions for the CNG cylinder!!It is under shade and no sunlight will directly hit it but still if there is something that i can do further to avoid any mishap, pls suggest. Same is with the LPG gas cylinder, it is kept in the kitchen with main valve shut and shall remain unused for same period.Is it safe this way!!

No problem, both are safe as no direct heat source |

It would be preferred to make the cylinder empty. |

Dear Limu You may follow proactive actions suggested by Mr. Abdullah & Mr. Fayyaz but being an engineer & working in high pressure gaseous plant assure that both cylinders are safe. |

I have a different, but related to CNG question. I lived in the US, but I have moved my family in Pakistan. I bought a car which runs on CNG ans as you all know CNG is not available three days a week. My question is there any kit available which you can connect to house gas and fill up tank? Appreciate your reply. regards |

Mr. Khan Please never try it as it is MOST dangerous, may remember one such incident at Lahore killing many people so it was declared illegal by shehbaz Sharif govt. |
