Ed, do you have a shop i can store or work on this thing while im down here?

**DRAGOONRANCH** · 10-31-2006, 03:29 PM

Yes and no, you could probably put it in the barn, but it has a dirt floor and no power. An extension cord could be used though. You are more than welcome to the tools too. Its about a 45 mile drive for you though, so you might take that into consideration. I will call home and fiind out if there is a spot open in there. Should be since the beast and the heep are both off gettin worked on.

I will talk to my bro, you could probably put it under the carport in his spot when you work on it.

Propane isn't any cheaper.

how much is fuel injection? The previous owner I believe spent less than 200 bucks to convert the buggy.

I spent about $200, but I think I included the distributor in that and the stock one on most motors will work, I had a ****ty one. Seeing as he has all the parts allready he'll only need to buy a fuel pump or graft the chevy one into the tank. Well that and get a non-rat-eaten harness.

**DRAGOONRANCH** · 10-31-2006, 11:30 PM

Yeah, they are at your disposal. Just call my bro at 254-721-5815 to set something up when you need it.

**BMFScout** · 10-31-2006, 11:42 PM

You have to buy the throttle body, compruta, and wiring harness from the yard. The rest is basically free from pick and pulls. I think they must run a deal if you buy those parts, the rest is free. I never really checked, just took advantage of it. I am advertising on my Scout for Awesome in Dallas via a bumper sticker, that has to be worth something to them.

I guess there is also a fuel pump, fuel line, filter, O2 bung, etc. I say I have around $200-ish in mine. I would think propane might be easier, and if you bought a kit to fuel inject it, propane would be way cheaper. It really comes down to the fact that I get off on the smell of burning gasoline , forklifts just don't do it for me.

Buy computer?

**Doug Krebs** · 11-01-2006, 12:06 AM

I would always prefer gas for the availablity. Propane just seems to be more of a hassle.

**eight** · 11-01-2006, 12:16 AM

I think about propane for my buggy. It would work nicely for the turbo with the highish compression.

**Reckless** · 11-01-2006, 09:08 PM

Thanks Ed, ill let him know somthing when I do. Im gonna try to work on it as much as possible during thanksgiving and the christmas break.

**Reckless** · 11-02-2006, 12:44 PM

What other kind of springs could I use, i saw the ford thread and it got me to thinking?
