    I was just woundering if anyone knows what the cost roughly is for converting a 1988 F250 that I got last summer back to gas?

    I want to convert it back to gas. The number of gas stations that sell auto propane were I live has dropped from 4 to 2 and they are only open till round 9ish. Which making getting fuel very restricting plus in the bigger cities a lot of the gas stations that sell it don’t know how to use it

    Most were set up for multi fuel
    Do you still have both gas tanks under the truck?

    Under the hood, there should be a propane adapter next to your plenum. It has heater hoses going to it, as well as the propane.
    Looks sort of like a round wheel thing .
    Take some pictures under the hood, and post them please, as it's been at least 10 years since I removed a set up.

    Yes, it can be done, I just have to refresh my memory.

    Ok, round can is the propane unit, has heater hoses going into it.
    You will need some junk yard parts, the air filter on the left will go away too.
    I'll look in my garage tomorrow at what I have, maybe I still have the bill for when I removed everything off Paul's truck.

    I did that in 05.
    I will also try to take some pictures what you need to put back o from junk yard. Air filter box, hoses, etc.


    Probably if you use care removing the system, you will be able to sell it, it is very appealing to the right person

    I assume by where your throttle body is, you have a 460?
