wife bought a school bus, powered by propane, questions

[Gasser64]

Just don't do an ice cream truck, unless you're willing to dress like a clown and/or be viewed as a potential pervert.

Well they already wrote "Dirty intentions" on the side of a school bus. Probably safe to assume that ice cream truck is their next project.

barron, keep your wife away from mine. I have a hard enough time pretending that I'm paying attention to the stuff she finds on pinterest.

You really want to get ahead of the game, do a mail truck. They'll be all the rage a year from now.

Already had one of those. I made it into a hunting buggy and then turned it to a teacher in Houston.

Wife said I couldn't go fishing again until the bus was painted. I had that shit done in 3 days.

What's the weight of the bus? CDL needed?

Id ditch the propane. Iv worked on a lot of them and the system itself works fine but its hard to find any place that knows how to fix them or get parts for it in the field. Pretty much the only thing that ever goes wrong with them is line leaks, carb diaphragm tears, or the shut off valve. but if your out in god knows where and any of those goes bad you're gonna have to order it and wait. If you convert it back to gas you dont have to try and find a propane station and any of the parts will be easy to find.

16k #'s, no CDL to my knowledge, which is me repeating what my wife has learned/been told

I want to, and likely will. Although it looks like the carb is propane specific. I can't see where a fuel (gas) line would attach, but the propane port is HUGE, in the back side of the carb. Any insight or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Get a different carb? Who knows, I'm talking out of my ass.
