Can you convert an CGI blueEFFICIENCY to LPG and if so do you still get the same problems with carbon build up on the valves?

Probably a question for those companies that actually do the conversions

oh

good to see the generic diesel word for green (blue) is wrongly used for petrol cars as well then, that marketing team pushed the boat out on that one

they'll find pitching a colour for electric ones hard to come by won't they
you'd think with dieselgate, not over using "blue" would have been a good idea?

The clue is the G between C and I.
G = Gasoline
D = Diesel.

OP, in theory no and you may well be able to use a liquid LPG injection system - more power, better economy and no need to start on petrol.

You can't use a conventional generic LPG kit because if you stop petrol passing through the injectors they melt, that leaves two strategies. Either approx 80%/20% LPG/petrol to stop the petrol injectors frying or injecting liquid gas through the petrol injectors. Kits are available for the first solution from the likes of Stag. Kits for the second solution are vehicle/engine specific and are not available for your 350. The LPGSHOP is the best source for kit and info.
