Lightbulb Compressed Natural Gas Fogger!

Has anyone tried to plumb in a CNG fogger using a propane system, or is CNG too high of pressure? I can buy it locally for $0.73 a gallon here in Utah and it hasn't changed 10 cents per gallon in the last 3 years here. Propane is expensive and so I was wondering if you could just run CNG in a propane injection system with just a bigger nozzle. Any guesses on power output? What if you set it up on a toggle switch that would just trickle some in pre turbo to add a little gasser like spunk to the go pedal and give a little more economy.

i ran a cng truck for a couple years. the cng system runs at 3000 psi, there's no way a propane system could hold that kind of pressure.

Propane runs at 300 psi, and you're right CNG is 3600 psi. Does anyone know anything about LNG = Liquified Natural Gas. It runs 15 to 20 psi. There are a few companies on the net that sell CNG conversion kits for diesels, but they are pricey and all that i wanted was a suplimental fuel source so I can take advantage of $0.73 gallon.

How much PSI does a typical No2 kit run? Anyone?
