Q: Do I need special technicians or training to service propane autogas vehicles?

A: Spark-ignited, direct-injection, liquid-powered propane autogas engines are similar to gasoline. Any trained technician can work on them once they know how the propane autogas fuel system works. Companies such as ROUSH CleanTech have a dedicated field service team to support customers and service centers with web-based and onsite training.
