| Abstract |
The EPA was requested by the Department of Energy to perform testing on two late model vehicles which had been converted with on-the-market systems to run on compressed natural gas (CNG). The EPA was requested to measure vehicle emissions, fuel economy, and acceleration characteristics of the vehicles in stock configuration, modified running on gasoline, and modified-running on natural gas. The testing was run over a three week period with triplicate tests run in each condition. This report presents the results of the testing; but does not attempt to analyze the feasibility of CNG powered vehicles in the market place. |
