#333 of 353 Well Gas OK for vehicle refuelling device? by lee14u Mar 08, 2008 (7:41 am)
A really big THANK YOU to you guys, especially you kscng for all the new resources. Jim314, I appreciate you responding also. You both gave my renewed confidence in this forum. Stay tuned - maybe we'll all learn something about the properties of ng.   I did purchase a newly rebuilt FMQ2-36 and very close to bringing online - 220 elec and ng supply plumbing now complete. Still dealing with issues of adequate water column and filters. I should have the analysis results back this Monday of the specific properties associated with my particular ng supply direct from well-tap and I will continue to post related info as I progress. Well see if this thread catches a few of us out there on the fringe. Now, on to the research of the material kscng provided. Thanks again.

Replying to: patcng (Aug 22, 2007 3:05 pm) Hello patcng,   Curious whether the idea of converting 3,000 psi to 3,600 psi is safe?? Does it just require changing the refueling male fitting?? Any ecm changes needed?? I've got 2000 Contour that I'd like to change to 3,600 psi.   Also, I just bought used fmq2-36 and was curious if that unit could run past 4,000 hour limit imposed by Fuelmaker??   Please email back to cng_across_usayahoo.com   Thanks !!

Replying to: kscng (Mar 07, 2008 4:06 pm) kscng (David) Would you have contact infor for Brian McKay in PA? No contact info on his site. Or... would you maybe contact him and ask him if he'd be willing to talk with me. I'd sure like to know how all is working out.

Replying to: lee14u (Mar 09, 2008 2:30 pm) Hi, just an FYI - please don't post private contact info in here. It's a publicly-accessible forum so we would have to remove that post since we can't verify that the person would want their contact info posted. (your e-mail addys in your profile are, however, only accessible to registered members)

Replying to: lee14u (Mar 09, 2008 2:30 pm) Lee14u - - - all I that know from looking at the Little Metal Shop website is his email. Look at the bottom of his website.   I've asked for update from my cng friend in PA who I know has talked with Brian about how his well and Fuelmaker process all went. If he has Brian's phone number, I will send you private message.   Also, if you'll look at setup in website, his well has some equipment that cleans out the unwanted chemicals, etc. before the line is ran up to his home-made dryer, then finally on to Fuelmaker for compression.

Replying to: lee14u (Mar 09, 2008 2:30 pm) Lee14u - - - also forgot to tell you about a terrific cng website:   www.cngprices.com   This is excellent website for locating PUBLIC cng pumps (just type in city and state) and website tells you current price, hours of operation, method of payment required, etc.   I use the cngprices website as a supplement to the AFDC website by Fed's which lists both private and public cng pumps . . ie sometimes private cng pump sites can be convinced to become public. Also, in a severe pinch, a private pump might let you fill up your dedicated cng vehicle if you're going to run out!! Replies to this message: lee14u (Mar 12, 2008 7:05 pm)

CNG powered vehicles are rapidly spreading everywhere especially in Asia & South America. This site give interesting stats on it http://ngvgroup.com/index.php?nav=estadisticas&PHPSESSID=062d6598b7cb1de342078a3- bedbf5136 According to it, there are 7.9 million CNG powered vehicles worldwide.   Also a Plastic LPG cylinder is being introduced in India which is lightweight. Pretty soon, Plastic CNG cylinder which may be lighter and durable and can carry more gas may be introduced soon giving a big boost to CNG powered vehicles. http://publication.samachar.com/pub_article.php?id=1558492&navname=Business%20&m- oreurl=http://publication.samachar.com/mumbaimirroronline/business/business.php&- homeurl=http://business.samachar.com
#341 of 353 Progress by lee14u Mar 25, 2008 (6:27 am)
Am in touch with Brian of PA now. Also, I'm in the process of building my desiccant filter. Unfortunately, I am a little sidetracked with some repairs to my 01 F-150. Had a miss in cylinder #2 - seems to be the coil. Taking it apart I found a broken cng fuel injector sleeve. I may have broken it during disassembly. Anyway, I found a pretty good source for cng parts out of Fresno, CA. Hope to have it all back together sometime early next week.
