Gas Fuel, Converter Kits, LPG, Motorcycle 100ccAbstract
The natural gas potential in Indonesia can be used to support the renewability of alternative fuels for motorcycles.
LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is one of the Gas Fuel products that can be used as fuel to replace the use of Oil
Fuel. Therefore, an energy conversion tool is needed to utilize LPG as a motorcycle energy source. The purpose
of this research is to design and manufacture a gas motor converter kit. This converter kit has three technologies,
such as 1) a fuel distribution system that uses a manual fuel faucet so that the fuel distribution process is better,
2) there is a solenoid valve that functions to cut off gas flow when the vehicle stop without removing the regulator
on the fuel tube, and 3) the position of the gas fuel tube is under the motorcycle seat so that it is safer. The research
method using VDI2221 (Verein Deutcher Ingenieure). The research result is the creation of converter kits that
are made through the design process, turning process, milling process, welding process, and assembling process.
The research conclusion obtained is that the converter kits that have been made can be implemented on 100cc
motorcycles, and no leaks or defects were found in the converter kits, so the tool can be used properly on 100cc
motorcycles.
