Make modifications in the engine as per the instructions told to you by the conversion kits manufacturer. Make proper adjustment in the cam timing and the compression ratio. An electronic safety valve which when engine turned off isolates the propane sully to the engine should be installed for safety reason. Now fuel up the tank and check for any leakage. While starting the car for the first time, check leakage near filter and then adjust timing accordingly. Always keep an eye on the sparkplug. Spark plugs are the reasons for creating problems in convertible cars.

Lead and Sulfur are the causes of acid rains. Engines powered by propane offer the cleaner emission with fifteen percent less carbon monoxide, fifty to fifty-five percent less nitric oxide and hydrocarbons and ten to fifteen percent less carbon dioxide.
