[QUOTE="Roccrawler, post: 768632, member: 15996"] myth on power loss people use to bolt mixers on top of carb so you can run gas or propane. this was the air flow restriction that gave you a 10% loss. now eliminate carb and bolt mixer right to engine and it doesnt have restriction. Propane is a lot more efficent than carburation. it enters engine as a gas and doesnt atomize like a gas engine needs to. propane is 1/2 the weight per gallon as fuel it is true you will use more propane than gas about 10 gas = 13 propane in a toyota you will run all weekend on a single forklift tank common size forklift tanks hold 7.5 gallons or 9.5 gallons for the larger less common size anything else?
