LEHR Australia is proud to introduce to Australia the LPG outboard and is building a network of servicing dealers throughout Australia and Oceania.
What is Propane?
Propane is the gas you use for your BBQ or camping. It is available in steel bottles of many sizes, and now also in composite bottles. You can also use the disposable bottles for camping in the smaller outboards (2.5HP and 5HP).
Propane’s environmental credentials
Propane contains only 3 carbon molecules while petrol contains 8 carbon molecules. As a result, propane produces very low carbon emissions. LEHR propane engines typically reduce carbon emissions by 65-70%. Propane is the cleaner and greener alternative fuel. It is the most reliable fuel, and it does not degrade over time like petrol. It stores indefinitely and has no ethanol problems. LPG has an octane rating of 110, so it is a very powerful fuel. It also has no evaporative emissions.
LEHR have 2.5HP, 5HP, 9.9HP and a 15HP models available in both long and short shafts, and some with electric start and forward controls.
So why LEHR Outboards?
- Powerful 4-stroke engines
- Easy start – no choke (LPG does not degrade overtime like petrol; no ethanol issues)
- Economical- 30-40% cheaper to run
