Propane for Motor Fuel

Motor Fuel Propane, otherwise known as Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), is produced as part of natural gas processing and crude oil refining. Propane holds approximately 86 percent of the energy of gasoline and so requires more storage volume to drive a range equivalent to gasoline, but it is price-competitive on a cents-per-mile-driven basis, which is why it is attractive to consider as a gasoline alternative for Farm Vehicles, Fleet Vehicles and Business Vehicles.

Benefits of Propane in Transportation Applications

LPG has a long and varied history in transportation applications. It has been used in rural and farming settings since its inception as a motor vehicle fuel.

McMinnville Gas started using propane as fuel for our cars and trucks in 1946. Today we do vehicle conversions for our customer’s commercial and fleet vehicles. The propane industry is once again focused on the gas to propane conversions of vehicles, in order to maintain the fuel as a viable motor fuel alternative. Converting your fleet vehicles to propane provides both emission and petroleum replacement benefits. McMinnville Gas not only does your conversion for you but will also set up and supply a propane tank and pump set up on your property to make fueling easy and convenient.
