With regard to the dialogue on gas prices.
Is there enough comunity interest in our
area to push for some natural gas filling stations?(Not Propane)
Having some experience with it being used in local fleet service,
I know that it works very well although some power loss does occur and the
mile per gallon
ratio falls because it takes a higher fuel to air ratio to run. The
conversion can be run in
tandem with gasoline so that you can use ether one, increasing the range of
the vehicle.
In the past personal inquiries to the old WWP pretty much got the run
around.
Also after doing a net search it looks to me as though good ol CONOCO has
some
major control over this product....(Interesting I think)
Even so the state of Colorado seems to have a successful public
program.....so it can be done.
The bottom line being :
Its far less expensive than gasoline,common in our region and even though
its still a carbon
emitter, its clean burning.
Anyone else have some thoughts on this?
Any Fuel Cell buffs out there?
Dave
