Re: Removing propane tanks from truck
The vehicle in question is a 92 F150, auto., 300 inline 6 with 162,000 miles. Don't know how long is/was run on propane and how long on gas. I have heard from co-workers the 300 6 runs "dirty" and is hard to pass emissions testing. One guy suggested keeping the propane system intact and using it before yearly inspection time so it will pass. He also said the 300 would barely pass inspection when fairly new. I am not keen on having the headache of finding a place to fill up, buying a propane sticker each year from the state, etc. but if I can use it on gas most of the time and propane occasionally that may be ok. The truck is in a city surplus vehicle online auction. I currently has a bid price of 526.00. The body is fairly decent, interior has one small tear in the drivers seat, and starts and runs decent. The tranny seems ok also. I'm not the current high bidder, but considering bidding a little more. It has three tool boxes in it that are worth at least 200.00.
