usually, the LPG engine is base on a Gasoline engine ,coz the compression ratio and the operation steps very similar , both needed the spark-plugs and the fuel mixing with the air while the engine doing intake step ~ the Diesel engine's compression too high and the igniton system is totally different, if you want the diesel engine goes LPG , its a big job, in Japan ISUZU offer some model of truck in LPG and CNG ~ their engines all from Diesel's verison , ofcoz the Compression , the ignition system and the fuel system tuned/changed already !
