Yes, it's the small motorcycle. Thank you for the good replies.

Is there a mixer small enough for a 90 cc engine? They're air-cooled, so what about a regulator (Is that what they're called?)? Ignition timing?

Thanks

Are you being hostile? Ether down under on the A hole of the world in the middle of a huge ocean we are yrs ahead of technology in America or we just dont suffer fools as politely... And down under we call a spade a spade.. for digging and a shovel a shovel.. for shoveling what ever out of stables....

... Now that I've been thinking about it, it's more the fill hose on the propane distributor's side of the equation. The hose is pressurized and they bleed it off to atmosphere when done filling up (so they can disconnect), which is going by when the "spit valve" ejects liquid. My car has always be...

... So unless your filling station has some sort of 3rd world archaic filling method, (and if actually concerned would find a station that is more appropriate to your concerns) There is no stir or even issue. Are you being hostile? There aren't propane fuel stations in the U.S. that I am aware of.

I didn't think this would cause such a stir. Now that I've been thinking about it, it's more the fill hose on the propane distributor's side of the equation.

So what's the norm as far as refueling and venting through the __ % valve?

Here's an old article:

Every time I fueled my car they vented propane as a way to tell that the tank was full. It's been a few years.

Howdy, I've had this thought with me for a long time and would like some feedback. I heard years ago that Mexico City drastically improved it's air quality by shoring up all the leaky propane tanks. Then compare that to venting while filling a car tank, especially when it's full and vents mostly pro...

I'd like info on, and am interested in buying a couple of vintage propane carbs. Early-60's and older is what I'm looking for. What brands should I be looking for? I'm not ruling Impco out, but maybe something more oddball. Where might I buy them? They would be for a performance application on a For...

Anyone got any ideas on a purchase source?

Call Sleegers- they sell/ship to the general public directly (AKA retail).

Okay, I unbolted the tank and got a reading on the dial. I rotated the tank so the float mechanism would move (due to gravity) to a position further from empty since I might not have enough propane in there. It looks like the float mechanism isn't stuck. Since it's unbolted I'll take it to the local...

Have you checked that the sender works properly electrically? That seems to be part of the miscommunication. I'm not concerned with the sender electricals or the car's gauge at the moment. I believe the 'float mechanism' is stuck or broken. I am not getting a dial reading on the 'tank gauge', excep...

Alright, Greg is reinforcing my concerns about potential problems with removing the float mechanism. The funny thing is that my parts tank float mechanism was easy to remove, and it's from the late 60's or early 70's! The other funny thing is I removed that tank from my car after I reread an older t...
