i then had the truck fully checked and they was nothing wrong with it, this is LPG not as power full as petrol

Answer 3

Liquefied Petroleum Gas, and no it doesn't.

Answer 4

Performance is about 80% of what regular gasoline fuel is..

Answer 5

Think propane. (with some butane in there, which is propane's close chemical neighbor.)

No reason performance couldn't be every bit as good or better than gas. Just depends on the design of a particular system.

One trick is that the fuel can be made of different things, more or less butane, etc.  The fuel system needs to know how to tune itself for that, kinda like an E85 flex fuel car.
