Vehicle Conversions
Conventional vehicles can be converted to run on alternative fuels.
A converted vehicle is one that was originally designed to operate on gasoline or diesel but has been modified to run on an alternative fuel. CNG and propane are the most common fuels used in conversions.
Converting to propane
Gasoline engines may be converted to operate solely on propane (referred to as a dedicated conversion) or equipped to switch between propane and gasoline (known as a bifuel conversion). Information on propane conversion options is available from the Propane Education & Research Council at www.propanecouncil.org.
Converting to natural gas
Natural Gas Vehicles for America publishes a list of light-, medium-, and heavy-duty natural gas vehicles and engines available directly from large manufacturers or qualified converters. The list is online at www.ngvc.org/resources_tools.
