  • un plug your injectors and try the same. it will save your injectors if you do this often

  • @UBERKron no point in doing this again, just an experiment to see if it was possible.

  • This is a good tip for drug addicts that need to get a fix and have no gas to get to their dealers house.

  • @Hollrobb lol, but who would even think like that unless they need drugs and have no gas in their tank. but look on the bright side, they cant run from the cops when they get caught.

  • did you drill out the top of the torch?

  • @KJ4TEE yes

  • I've seen many limo's that ran on propane. Supposed to be quiet?

  • here in the UK cars some cars are converted to gas known as lpg as petrol is so expensive £6 a gallon lpg is £3.50 a gallon

  • Looks like a nice idea in the event you run out fuel along side the road but I think its rather dangerous without a fire arrester. But this proves you can run a car on vapors rather nicely and not do anything to it.

  • i sell propane and propane accessories

  • Hey thanks for the heads up on how to run a vehicle people may not take this seriously but when the gas crisis hits we need to know how to take care what has to be done if a crisis hits again... the strong survive through knowledge and the weak keep looking for it...

  • i did that to my van when the fuel pump relay went bad, i stuck the open end of the propane hose in the air cleaner air inless, with the air cleaner still in place, adjust the fuel flow and crank the engine till it runs, and adjust to the proper fuel flow to maintain the vehicle speed, works for me till i got the van home, and replaced the fuel pump relay switch

  • or we could just use gas so we can go fater and we dont have to deal with all of this crap!!!

  • @kwacz ,lol, Most likey the same person that would think of running from the cops if they are caught. but like you said,""look on the bright side".
