To do this it has to be a duel fuel set up and not solely gas
there will be a switch on the dash that is a three way switch and this energizes solenoids for the gas or the petrol as you cannot run both at once
There is no need to by pass it because if you want petrol , just don't refill the gas cylinder and then if you accidentally switch to gas , the engine will stop until you switch it back to petrol
Best idea is to find an accredited shop that handles petrol/ gas conversion and discuss it with them

Why doesnt my 2000 ford f150 start up when switched to propane

Probably because the converter that changes liquid propane to gas for the engine to use is not working or if you have liquid directly to the injectors then maybe the change over switch is not operational. Where is concerned it is best to have the problem attended to by gas specialists AS gas is 100 times more dangerous than petrol.

Truck runs on propane does not start

Are you familiar with the propane injection system? If so can you tell me what tests you have run so far and what was inspected? Do you have a fuel type selector switch (to choose between Gas and Propane)?When did this problem start and what is the temperature outside? Propane will not convert from liquid to vapor fast enough, if it is too cold outside. Inspect the plumbing between the intake and the regulator. If there is a leak in the plumbing. The diaphragm inside the regulator will not move or open (to let propane flow to the engine). The regulator can malfunction if it becomes clogged with sludge from the propane. They sell a product that can be added to the propane tank. It is used to keep the fuel system clean. Please write back. If you have more details or information I would like to help. Good luck.

Wondering about the dual gas tank. Can I switch over from one tank to the next while I'm driving, or do I need to be stopped? Does it matter if I push the switch with it running, or with it turned off? ...

Yes, I would however suggest that you try this while sitting still first to make sure the control valve is still working. If it seems to work while sitting still then you can change between tanks anytime. The switch is only operational when the key is on and controls a valve body that changes from tank to tank. So as long as the valve is working and you have fuel or gas in both tanks you just fine.

Toyota hilux 3l motor overheating

Dont Laugh.. But Heres I I check'em: Open the radiator cap or coolant tank if radiator cap isnt applicable. Then sniff the coolant.. If It smell like gas vapors.. Then its Definitely a blown/cracked head or gasket..( usually a gasket ) They make test kits for that. But save ya money.. the nose is cheaper.. Thanx.. PS Make sure engine is cool when ya do this..
