There's
absolutely
nothing
new
about
Propane
conversions. Excellent
equipment
built
for this
reason
has been
around
for over
40
years. There
are more
than
200,000
Propane
powered
vehicles
in the
United
States
and
approximately
9
million
worldwide. The
technology
is well
proven
and EPA
approved. To the
left,
you can
see an
engine
that has
been
converted
to run
on
propane. Notice,
there
are very
few
modifications. The picture
on the
right
show the
major
engine
components
required
to run a
vehicle
on
propane. The
regulator
(silver
and
round),
the Lock
Off
(black
and
grey)
and the
Idle
Motor
(brass
and
blue).
There
are many
more
necessary
parts
like the
Computer
Control
Unit and
the fuel
switch,
both
which
mount in
the
dash,
inside
the
vehicle. |

| From Maine to
California Propane powered
vehicles result in lower
operating and maintenance costs,
much longer engine life and
60% less air pollution
according to EPA tests. The
availability of Propane also
makes it an appealing vehicle
fuel, currently there are more
than 10,000 Propane fueling
stations over all 50 states! Also, 85% of Propane is produced
in the United States! Fueling
your vehicle with Propane will
help reduce our country's
dependency on Foreign Oil!
Unlike gasoline, Propane enters
your engine as a completely
vaporized fuel that's free from
lead, carbon, gum, sulfur and
most pollutants. Propane won't
foul your car's plugs, ruin its
valves, contaminate its oil, or
burn out its muffler, along with
many other things. The U.S.
Department of Energy has stated
a Propane Powered engine could
last up to THREE TIMES LONGER
than the same engine powered by
gasoline! For example, many
fleets that run on Propane have
reported extended time between
required maintenance. Spark
plugs in unleaded gasoline
engines need to be replaced
every 30,000 miles, but spark
plugs in Propane powered engines
can last 80,000 to 100,000
miles! Propane also has a
higher octane rating, 104 to 112
as compared to gasoline which is
87 to 92, causing engines
burning Propane to run much more
efficiently. Mileage and
performance running on Propane
are about the same as with
gasoline, however, the cost of
Propane per gallon runs FAR less
than you've been paying for
gasoline. Couple that with far
less problems and maintenance
and you are saving A LOT of
money! |
