I have asked this to many people many times and usually get a hypothetical answer instead of real life experience.
How did the tanks (on the tractor) get filled on the farm???
I know a gallon of LP is equal to about 1.25 gallons of gas and the BTU properties are less. Also a 50 gallon LP tank can only be filled to 80% of capacity. All things considered this would equal less time between fuel ups and the transfer of LP is not so fast. Gravity would not work so well as the supply tank is usually on the ground and a pump is very expensive? Did you just vent & fill? I've got a bit of LP and LP tank experience but I've never had an LP tractor or vehicle myself, but again have studied them for years, we once ran our squad cars on LP here in Indiana.It was not good refilling them in the winter. Thanks
