    Gigi eats rattler, the kids haven't tried it yet. Gigi and I used to go to the desert a couple times a month when we lived in SDGO. Glamis, Otay Mesa, out towards Yuma air base - watching night bombing runs by F-14s and 18's is cool.

    Got a red X from your pic link and when Itried it buy itself got a, "Not Found.
    The requested URL was not found on this server. "
    Propane 258 ... Like to see more about that. I'll have a rebuildable block next month - after I finish the 360 for my CJ, and swap my 258 into Erin's YJ.

    That works!

    Is it dual fuel of strictly LPG?
    What is that on the P-side in front of the batt? The pressure regulator?
    How's it run? Anything you would do differently?

    The pressure regulator? That is on the side

    How's it run? FLAWLESS

    Anything you would do differently? Not a thing

    Man of many questions

    The ONLY downside of ruunning straight LPG is fuel capacity. The tank I use will hold 18 gallons of propane. I ran around Calico all day on half a tank. For long trips I will carry 2 additional 10 gallon tanks in a trailer so I can refill as needed.

    Where do you fill up at? Or are there 'gas' stations around you? We have a propane dealer down the street (not open weekends/holidays) and a U-Haul up the street (not open Sunday's and most holidays). I see this as the major drawback here in VA.

    Thanks for the info

    There are many places to refill at around here. Since I only use the CJ for offroad it really isn't an issue with me. Besides, one of my good friends works for a large propane company, right before a run he brings the company truck home and refills all my tanks. And the price is right too ;)!
