If you have an existing vehicle that you would like to convert to natural gas, a certified
conversion shop can do this for you. The after market conversion leaves the existing gasoline system
intact and adds the natural gas package to the vehicle. Enjoy the benefits of natural gas, while extending
the range of the vehicle, by allowing you to switch between the two fuels.
The installation of a natural gas system includes a cylinder that is mounted underneath,
in the back of the truck or in the trunk of a car. One 70-litre cylinder equals 18 litres of gasoline and
weighs approximately 160 pounds.
