Don't remember what the chemicals were, but same as regular gas engines without smell or smoke.
We had units in the shops for months trying to get them to pass the state emissions test - but Governor's office didn't want us to release that information to the public.
Governor's security department called me and said that they needed keys to the motor pool lot so they could fuel the Governor's newly converted Lincoln at our CNG pump. I told them that if they had called me first I would have told them not to do that. They replied that it was a "done deal".
I fought giving them a key for awhile so the could fuel the car for PC reasons. They said that they had to fuel the car at 11:00 P.M. after they took the Governor home. [I found out later that they were taking him home from his mistress's apartment].
Those idiots couldn't figure out how to fuel the car even after I demonstrated the procedure to them. After about 2-3 weeks of the Lincoln stalling in the middle of the intersection (which I warned them about), they quit using the CNG pump and just fueled with regular gas.
But they had a couple weeks of PR that they were doing something to help the environment, so nobody cared after that.
