@vampov legally you … @vampov legally you cant mix fuels. practically, you maybe could but propane runs 23.5:1 air fuel ratio, and CNG is only 10:1, may be some operating issues
A gas station is … A gas station is commercialized where they use high pressure. A home refueling station is extremely low pressure so it takes time for it to build up enough pressure. HUGE difference. Commercialized CNG is around 3000-3600 PSI and residential CNG is at 5-50PSI.
I’m also in Utah, … I’m also in Utah, and the answer to your question is NO. At least without modification. 1. The natural gas you fill up with is gaseous not liquid. Propane vehicles are filled with liquid propane. 2. Most CNG (compressed natural gas) and LPG [(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) aka Propane] vehicles both have a “Compuvalve” which is specific to which fuel it was design for. 3. The filler nozzle is totally different. SO…. ….just don’t run out! I’ll see you at the filling station.
wow, this guy takes … wow, this guy takes 8 HOURS to get his CNG car refueled???? C’mon, in Brazil we take about 2 MINUTES to do it…. in any common gas station!!!
Actually research … Actually research show’d that it’s more likley too go kaboom as you put it in a regular petrol driven car than a ng car, because the gas is very light so it will just float into the atmosphere indstead of frying you like kfc.
This is my question … This is my question there are plently of CNG refueling stations in Utah but lets say for some weird reason I run out. Could I put Proprane in my car to get me back to a CNG station.
cng is so much … cng is so much cleaner than everything else and with the shale find in the usa we are good to go for the next 118 years. Why not look into this further so we can save money and keep it domestic?
Who wants to get … Who wants to get blown up in a CNG wreck when you can get a soothing bath of flammable gasoline instead. Decades of action movies clearly demonstrate that cars fueled by gasoline explode too.
Pakistan is on the … Pakistan is on the forefront of CNG use. Same for Argentina. We don’t have many CNG stations in the U.S.;however, almost every home here has a natural gas supply line. Home fueling has tremendous potential here. I recently did a bi-fuel CNG conversion on my Toyota. It cost over $5000 U.S. What does a CNG conversion cost in Pakistan? I like being able to choose between Petrol and CNG. In some parts of the U.S. , CNG costs under $1 per gallon.
My car is bi-fueled … My car is bi-fueled with petrol and CNG. There are CNG stations everywhere in my country. There are more stations that offer CNG than those that offer Gasoline or Petrol.
Another benefit I have is that I can fill up my CNG cylinder and the petrol tank up to the top and not worry about refilling up to 350 miles.
oh ya there is a … oh ya there is a ton of kits on the internet to run your car on propane for around 300bucks and most truck stops have propane its super easy easier than natural gas
CNG is the way to … CNG is the way to go. American fuel, cheaper. The government needs to allow access to there filling stations, they have been using these as fleet cars for a long time.
Its it possible to … Its it possible to also use propane instead of natural gas without any further modifications? Because we have buses in our area that run on propane, not natural gas.
Regerative braking … Regerative braking with no batteries is possible by using the engine to compressing air into a tank. Then run the car on compressed air.

@fdief it has to do …
@fdief it has to do with line pressures. Main CNG fuel stations come off a line of 1600psi +
At home, the supply lines are reduced to <2psi, so the compressor takes quite long to fill. This only applies to filling at HOME.

By the year 2050 most gas stations may offer you these options:
* Electrical energy
* Hydrogen
* Methane (synonymous with CNG)
* Propane (synonymous with LPG)
* Ethanol
* Regular Gasoline
* Midgrade Gasoline
* Premium Gasoline
* Diesel
Most cars may also be bi-fuel, tri-fuel, etc… so drivers will have their options.
