| | Re: gotpropane kit. (12th Feb 09 at 1:58pm UTC) | | | If you can do this I believe you just need a 50 state legal kit..... doesnt need to go on by a certified shop just needs to have a CARB (calif. air research board number) plate to go with it to identify that it has been an accepted product. Which is lame because Propane has way way way lower emissions, I think the biggest issue with them though is your not paying a road tax on propane, I may be wrong here but I think you have to have a registered commercial fleet to run propane at all on the road pre or post smog vehicles....and Im sure theres a permit and tax on that.....they dont like it when they dont get there money from you and they say there not Communist.......but yet they have a say in everything we do now and have a tax and permit for it too....hhhhmmmmmmm | |

Guest | | Re: gotpropane kit. (12th Feb 09 at 5:17pm UTC) | | For the price of a gotpropane kit you can put stock EFI on, get a header, exhaust system and be a pimp with EFI in a first gen. I did my 83. The toyots diesel is garbage. Ive seen some run good, but parts are hard to find. EFI was the best thing I did to that truck. I was able to fully get it and not stall.  | |

Why wouldnt it pass ? most ref stations will tell you what you need to do if they dont like what they see, I have seen tons of motor swaps go thru there 3.4 swaps 4.7 swaps chevy and ford v8 swaps etc., the propane problem is a road tax thing I think you pay more reg or something ? not excatly sure I'll ask the Pops hes a licenced smog tech for 30 plus years | |

true but if the guy actually had half a brain the cpu knows if its carb or EFI from the VIN but most smog techs dont give a fuck they check the timing pitch off the evap line check the cap visual on the cat and run it they usually dont ask ?'s unless your swap looks jenky
And it was 84 for the truck EFI, 81 for the cars, you know that Cole come on......lol | |

Guest | | Re: gotpropane kit. (12th Feb 09 at 7:20pm UTC) | | I never said 81 was the first year in the truck. I was waiting for someone to tell me im wrong.......My 4runner has a EFI Celica motor in it.....you knew that :homo:
And its WAAAAY easier to go to the reff and have him pass a stock toyota EFI setup. I would of done that with mine, but I killed it before smog was up again. | |

| | Re: gotpropane kit. (13th Feb 09 at 12:15am UTC) | | | Oh I agree its way easier to go thru the ref with efi instead of propane :homo: lol its a road tax issue more than a smog issue thats why its off road only, kinda like buying red dye diesel for off road use theres no road tax on it, thats the problem with propane fleets can use it but theres a permit on the side of the truck they pay extra fees for it and have to have there own fueling station on site, kinda like Tysons old shwans truck it was a 8.1 chevy motor converted to propane shwans has a permit and there own fueling setup and its only worth it if you have a high number of vehicles....Go EFI and forget about it, if you want run the efi w/ propane you just swap the injectors out and run a mega squirt efi cpu (its a programmable efi system) and they wont even know your on the bottle leave your gas filler neck so they can check the cap.... and you can even leave the stock cpu in and just swap the injectors and run gas just for your smog test... either way efi is your buddy if you want to stay street legal and its easy to get that reffd, or swap your carb for smog day, there is someone that makes a setup that replaces the air cleaner and you leave your carb on still and then you can just swap the air cleaner for the smog guys | |
