Propane conversions available for commercial engines

Briggs & Stratton Commercial Power engines are now available for propane conversions through Propane Power Systems. According to the company, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-certified conversions are available for 11 Vanguard and Commercial Series engines, ranging in displacement from 205cc single-cylinder horizontals up to 993cc Big Block V-Twin engines. Propane Power Systems, a division of R&R Products, worked on Briggs & Stratton Commercial Power engines, as well as other manufacturers’ products, to develop the fuel system and mountain conversion kits.

“The propane trend is growing in many commercial markets, especially in landscape and light construction,” says Jim Cross, marketing manager at Briggs & Stratton Commercial Power. “Propane Power Systems’ development of conversion kits for our Vanguard and Commercial Series engines provides original equipment manufacturers a wide array of certified solutions for their customers who want propane.”

For those who convert their engines to propane, a global three-year commercial limited warranty covers the non-propane parts of the engine, and Propane Power Systems’ warranty covers the fuel system.
