after reading ziggsters writeup (http://www.members.shaw.ca/k2pilot/Propane article.html) on propane, i was thinking about it and remembered that i have many of the parts needed for the install sitting in the shed, so i might be giving this a try soon, using a spare propane torch regulator and tank along with a spare nitrous solenoid for on/off control...

i figured i would remove the line from the reg, add a Tee, install a pressure gauge and a barb fitting, enough fuel line to reach the engine a couple barb fittings in my solenoid then feed it to the breather. then just follow his install with a micro switch on the IP.

I'm actually running a gas genset on a trailer with propane without a regular propane carb. Just feed the propane in similar to what ziggster did with a copper tube with holes drilled in it. I bought the propane regulator and valve off ebay, little expensive but safe. I feed the propane fro a 40 lb bottle thru an RV regulator, then to the regular gas engine regulator. Works great, should work on a diesel just as well.

Al, you need this on the Muscateer.
