In Reply to: Messing with propane. posted by jeffcat on February 16, 2017 at 20:27:02:
We had a training night on propane for the fire dept. It was pretty neat with several hoses to keep the tank cool and 2 more where the nozzles were fanned out and overlapping to provide a heat shield while you approached the tank to reach out and shut off the valve. IIRC they went through over 1000 gallons of propane that night.
The instructor asked what industry this might affect locally and the propane supplier was the only o e. Instructor about had a heart attack when he told him that he had two 18000 gallon tanks on the edge of a town of 40 people. He did some quick figuring and said we would need to evacuate everyone in a 1 1/2 mile radius if we thought those tanks were going to go.
Another figure he came up with was the amount of water needed combined with it being a rural area with limited local water. He realized we didn't have enough tankers in the area to be able to supply all the wire needed to put one out so just stay away.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
