I have had my 2001 Express bi fuel van for two months now and it is running great. Now my question is what if any service requirements are there for the CNG system- I've heard about CX's needing filters. What do I need to do with this beast?
PS My van came without a spare tire, and with the tanks in the location of the spare in the non-cng version of the van I was left with carrying the spare around in the luggage space in behind the back seat. I have 7 kids so we really needed that space and needed a new solution. Turns out rear door tire mounts for chevy's of this vintage (newer) do not exist, so I had a bit of effort to find one made for another van that would work on a chevy. The result is this: Miller Manufacturing, makes a bolt on rack for newer Fords called their "Ford Heavy Duty" that only needed a tiny bit of tweeking to get it to fit very nicely. That with a tire cover and some stainless bolts and we are sitting pretty with the spare outside the rear driver side door. I would gladly post photos if anyone is interested. The rack cost just over $100 delivered.
