propane could be running that engine in 10 minutes, it is simple.


i could have it set up by the time you ran down the street to fill the tank

you could just try it, and decide for your self it is a hassel to get fuel based on the milage you get on road.  i never really did the math, but i used about 75% of the "gallons" i used to use of Gasoline when wheeling a weekend at rausch or Gore

the Mc2100 can be fitted on a 1bbl manifold..
or upgrade to a 2 bbl manifold...

Carbs don’t suck if they are set up right... and the simpler the design the better...

propane exhaust gives me a headache...
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

You have a MC2100 sitting, smike?

I'm tired of dieseling on shutdown. Maybe I should think about a carb that's worth tweaking.

i'll have to extend my exhaust so it goes out from under the cj...
it ends just above the rear axle...

should be one regardless

no, why on earth would i spend money on another POS carb    they all suck, no matter how many hours you tune them- and i would know seeing as i work with the people that designed them

i thought it was called a motor craft or something that i have

i actually went home for lunch, and i have a Carter 1bb that was on my CJ, but the botom end Fly is bolted to a propane mixer and somewhere maybe in the old shop i have another 1bb carb, i think its an older RP mono jet that was a tank.



if you smell exhaust on the jeep regarless of fuel source, you have much more worse problems
