Valve Care System Fitted

Prins has installed its computer controlled Valve Care system to the Autogas LPG converted Honda Civic Type R ensuring that the correct dosage of additives is injected into the engine.

The Prins Valve Care system is essentially an additive dosing pump, developed exclusively for the Prins VSI LPG conversion system which features in the Honda Type R and prevents excessive wear to the valve and valve seat.

It calculates the levels of additives required based on the engine load meaning that even high performance or turbo charged engines, such as the one in our Honda, are always protected by the correct amount of additives.

The Prins Valve Care system has the added benefit of monitoring the fluid levels so that when they are low, the metering pump automatically switches off sending a message to the engine control unit to switch over from LPG to petrol. This both protects the engine and alerts the driver to the low fluid levels via an audible buzzer.

The dosing pump is activated as soon as the car switches from petrol to LPG which is an automatic switch over and is completely unnoticeable whilst driving.
