Agenda Item 8.
Regulation No. 67 (LPG vehicles)

35. The expert from CLEPA presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/24 proposing to insert into UN Regulation No. 67 new provisions for “valve control at stop-start”. GRSG adopted the document, as amended below, and requested the secretariat to submit the amendments to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2014 sessions as draft Supplement 14 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 67.

Annex 3, new paragraph 4.7., subparagraph (c), amend to read:
“(c) 1,000,000 cycles (mark “H3”) if, in addition to (a) or (b), the engine also shuts off automatically when the accelerator pedal is released."

36. The expert from AEGPL introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2013/29 introducing new provisions for preventing a flow of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) into the petrol or diesel tank, and vice versa. The expert from Germany preferred to insert more detailed test provisions to limit possible interpretations. GRSG noted a presentation by Italy on LPG direct injection technologies (GRSG-105-07) and a proposal for amendments to UN Regulation No. 67. Following the discussion, GRSG agreed to resume consideration on this matter at its next session on the basis of a revised proposal jointly prepared by the experts from Germany and AEGPL.
