Hello Ravindra, I had Petrol Indica GLG which had peculiar problem of knocking and jerks.
Used to require constant attention on spark plugs, Air filter and fuel filter.
Since the Indigo engine is parent of Indica engine and tata's noob in petrol engines so expected to have same characteristics.
My neighborhood garage assistant mechanic asked me if my car had gone Head gasket job done. It was Jaw dropping question to which the reply was NO. He continued that we had earlier done the Head gasket change in LPG Indica Petrol as the car overheated ultimately a blown head gasket. I am not sure about his claim.
Though my car didn't have overheating problems and i ran it on Petrol only.
So not sure if getting it LPG would be good for engine. Kindly take a word of the LPG owner first and do your homework.
Asst. Mech also claimed Indigo petrol coming to his garage and the owner reports 10kmpl inside city.
