Hello,
I've just registered on the forum. My apologies if this question has been previously answered. I haven't found any discussion yet of the legal ramifications of doing a NG bifuel conversion on really old, as in 1960's classic vehicles.
Anyhow, I have two classic mustangs. I'm considering selling one and doing a CNG bifuel conversion on the other, as I'm planning for it to be my grocery-getter until they won't let me drive anymore.....!
But I don't want to spend $15-20K on the conversion. I am capable of doing it myself as I am a retired EE and lifelong motorhead. Done my own gas piping and electrical for years... built my own house once... etc....
From what I read on this board, it seems the government has banned me from doing the job on a 1994 or later vehicle.... Ain't govenments swell..? REAGAN said it right: "Government is not the solution.... Government is the PROBLEM..!"
In any case, my question is, are they gonna lock me up for doing this conversion on my 1966 Mustang...? I am in WA state, and I know they have no restrictions here on modifying engines, etc, on vehicles older than 25 years. But I don't know how far the Feds have stuck their noses in here. Or if CNG is banned, or what.
Can anyone help...?
Thanks to all....!
