Jabba – Malaysian Engineer at its Worst !


NGV and cooking

Jabba had a thought. NGV gas is about RM10 per tank. Cooking gas RM20 per tank. 

Jabba is trying to connect a stove to the car, and to cook using gas from the car. If successful, we can save 50% on cooking gas.

Just before Jabba kills himself for the good of mankind, Jabba found out that the NGV uses methane, hence the gas is stored at much higher pressure than cooking gas, which is typically propane + butane. Basically, the gas is coming out at more than 1500psig from the car as oppose to cooking gas cylinders at 250psig.

Now, if Jabba plugs the stove to the car, probably a 5 feet flame will come out of stove due to the much higher pressure drop from the methane gas supply (and inflict 3rd degree burns on Jabba).

Jabba will use it as a flamethrower instead of a cooking stove now.

I will provide a picture of my homemade rig with the 5 ft flame soon.
