The estimate given by the manufacturer for the
gasoline run time can be used for propane also because it is just that; an
estimate or guess. Propane only has about 10% less Btu content than gasoline
gallon-to-gallon, so the manufactures gasoline estimate will be very close for
propane.
The type of person that can put a bar-b-q
grill together or install a ceiling fan should have little problem if they
follow the instructions included. This could also be a friend or family member that is
a mechanically inclined person with basic hand tools and a power hand drill. The
benefit of being involved with the conversion is that YOU will understand the
conversion better.
Propane and natural gas are clean fuels. And when you convert, you can seal
up the Dirty Port" that drastically shortens the life of your engine.

YamahaMotors and Mitsubishi Motors has come to the forefront and
stated they will not void the warranty when using our conversion kits.
Others have not so strongly endorsed the conversion of their engines. However,
after 1000's of kits sold, no customer has ever reported a warranty issue
involving one of our kits. We do know of customers that have taken a
dedicated converted generator to a dealer for repair while the unit was under
warranty for a non-conversion related repair and the dealers have repaired the
generator under warranty.
Our kits are designed as stationary type kits that tie into already existing gas
systems as shown in the section "Installations". If that is how
you are planning to use your generator then our kit will be complete except for
the gas line used for the final hookup. A generator can be used both stationary
and portable. If you also want to use the generator
portable, a PGK or NPSK will also be required. These are described in detail in
the "Installations" section also.
No. The governor simply looks for engine speed. It is not
effected by
what fuel is being used it only senses RPM and adjusts the throttle position
accordingly.
This may be true with other types of kits or adapter type conversions. We
have found that our dedicated
carburetor conversion kits to propane DO NOT lose power
because the propane is delivered into the engine at the exact engineered
location that the gasoline was being delivered. Also, all kits include a
regulator that is oversized for better performance.
This is not true! Propane is actually lower in
Btu's than gasoline. When set correctly the engine will run just as cool as
gasoline. As with all fuels, proper air/fuel mixture settings are important.
No. we do not sell engine parts.
Our only association with generators and engines is that we provide change over
kits from gasoline to propane and natural gas.

In 1997 the EPA made it mandatory that all vehicles converted from gasoline
to alternative fuel use only EPA certified kits. This certification
process added thousands of dollars to the price of a kit.
The bottom line is that we were economically forced to no longer offer vehicle
conversions. If you are still interested in a conversion kit for a fleet
vehicle(s), there is one company that has a wonderful system available.
