Personally, I have no real intentions of milling down my neck to fill my car at 3600 stations, just so that I can use the home Phill unit, which the refuse to...
I have a 1998 Ford Contour bifuel which I just bought from CNG motors. It works fine, but I can't find any CNG available in the Houston area, and Phill is not...
Simply replace the 3600 psi nozzle with a 3000 psi nozzle. 3600 psi will flow through a 3000 psi rated nozzle. Or upgrade or replace your receptacle. Or buy an...
Hello, I recently returned from trip from Oklahoma city to Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. the CNG refueling was a waste of time for the most part. I was on cng from ok to...
Sorry, but I have to be very blunt! Are you out of your .... mind suggest that he change the nozzle so he can fill a 3,000psi tank to 3,600psi. Jim B, don't...
It's my turn to be blunt. What do you think the delivery pressure on a Phill or a Fuelmaker is? 3000psi? 3600psi? Is it continuous or discontinuous? The...
By the way, you could have refueled in Fort Pierce too. The dispenser is 1.5 miles from either the Turnpike or I95. They are very customer service oriented...
Sorry you had a bad ride. I call ahead to cover all details in advance for each anticipated fuel stop. Usually talking with the people personally greases the...
It is possible to convert a 3000 PSI system to 3600. The items that must be checked and/or changed is the receptacle, tank, and regulator. Everything past...
... wasn't ... I find it strange that the area of the country where CNG is produced, which is namely the south, has few, if any, publically accessable CNG ...
You are correct that increased range should not be the guiding factor. After my conversion, I see a 10% range increase, rather then the expected 20%. This...
I tried to find a single instance where a CNG tank burst causing injury or death. I did not find any where the CNG tank was the primary cause of an accident....
"Apparently the Natural gas Coalition people aren't talking loud enough and all of us are going to get stuck with vehicles we can't fuel." Too Late, the...
I agree we as a group should understand the technology and its risks. The general public seem to think we are driving around little Hindenburgs, we should not...
... Great presentation. Even more evidence that they're so overengineered that 3000/3600 is not much of an issue. Especially using time-fill (much less ...
ok I would like to weigh in on this topic. I have a 97 crown vic that has a 3600psi nozzle. I went to a ford store and bought a new 3600 nozzle came home and...
You mill down the SHOULDER - NOT THE NECK! You machine 1 mm off the shoulder to allow the 1 mm LONGER internal 3600 psi nozzle clamp room to seat itself. YOU...
The natural gas cylinders (tanks) have a expiration date for a good reason. Each time the tank is filled the tank expands and with each cycle the material is...
So you would throw away perfectly good tanks instead of recertifying them? All my SCUBA buddies are too busy replacing their expired weight belts to join in...
BINGO ! you said the magic word. "Re-certify" but why bother, in your opinion expiration dates have no meaning. You better believe that the US Air Force is...
Is something being lost in translation here? You used "Expiration" and I used "Recertify". The dates on the tanks are recertification dates - not expiration...
Well, I wasted $12 and a trip to the machine shop today. I used the drawing and photo i posted in the photo section to modify my receptacle. I didn't do it...
Wes, As a moderator of another NGV site I feel it's my duty and responsibility to post this no matter what the consequences Posting information on how to...

Hello john, thanks so very much for drawing my attention to the possible legal issues. I hope the disclaimer will absolve me and the members of the legal...
Car makers would rather sell you a new car. You won't find a program. You're supposed to replace or total your car before the tanks need recertifying. The...
... I think far more dangerous is the discussion of using standard scuba or other compressors for Natural Gas. For instance, our Fuelmaker had a manifold leak...
I don't think I mixed up my terminology. The Label on my receptacle door states "tank service expiration date". Anyway, logic and not conjecture dictates that...
