I've always thought that two long skinny tanks running the length of the van and replacing the existing stove and fridge tank would be ideal. But then I understand that compressed natural gas may be a better option for the conversion AND I already have natural gas piped right into my garage. All I need is a compressor which the make. Now comes the problem with the appliances. Could they run on CNG? What kind of conversion would be needed for that?
