Any of you guys running an LP GAS conversion on your VW? My whole house generator (25 hp Honda engine) is hard plumbed into my propane tank, and my older skid steer (mid-70's New Holland L775) has a 65 hp V-4 air-cooled engine and it's on the bottle as well.

My gas tank on my woods buggy is an old propane tank, so the mounting bracket is already there. I've rebuilt a couple of regulators in the past (skid steer and my dad's '57 MF tractor), so I have "some" knowledge of how they are supposed to work.

I understand the loss of efficiency and retarding the timing to get correct service from an LP gas conversion - I am just looking for some information as to how your VW performs on LP.

Thanks in advance.
