CNG in Automatic Transmission

Hello Brothers,

Sorry if asking already discussed thing.

I don't even know how to change tyres so you can understand my knowledge on cars.

I was planning to buy Honda City 2003 / 2004 automatic but somebody told me that CNG won't work on auto.

My brother has Alto (650 CC) and installed CNG but later removed because cars was not breathing properly.

If I buy 2003 / 2004 city AUTO or Toyota Indus 2000 AUTO - can i convert to CNG without any problem. I learned in this forum that if engine is bigger perhaps 1300 or 1600, CNG won't hurt transmission.

Kindly educate me in detail.

Thanks

Your brother removed from the 650cc alto probably because that car is already very under powered. When you put CNG, its power is reduced even more.

What you should look for is an 'over powered' car. Not essentially City or Corolla, but any over powered car. In over powered cars, CNG is very successful. For example Mehran. Alto 650 has a better engine but still Mehran is much better on CNG.
