This item is closed with no bids. The shipping is what scared me off. I sure
would like to find one of these kits...Tired of hand cranking my JD A.

Components included Flywheel, Ring gear, Starter, Generator with bracket,
Generator drive belt, Fan shaft support, Crankcase cover with starter mount

Any thoughts?

Mike

Kevin a typical farm tractor set up to run on Propane would have higher 
compression pistons than the same model set up to run on gasoline.  Natural 
gas makes slightly less power than Propane so it might even have a bit 
higher compression ratio.  However; people who want their antique gasoline 
tractors to make more power sometimes use Propane pistons.  Most of those 
old engines had fairly low compression ratios to begin with.  I suspect your

power plant engine would be fine run on gasoline with just a carb change.

What brand, size and type engine is it?

HI   Does any one know what would have to be changed to run an engine set up

for natural gas on gasoline ?
I know a gas carb would be needed, but how about the pistons valves ect ?
Im looking at a power plant engine that runs on natural gas and was not 
wanting to have to redo the whole engine to run on gas.
Thanks
