How would I get it from my trailer to the parade route? And back again?

truck and trailer to somewhere close.  I can ask organizers if there is a closer spot than our meeting place(ch 8) to park trailer(s)  or I am sure you could drop it off then park the trailer at ch 8, then get a ride to pick up trailer when finished.  I am sure a club member would hang around Atom to never leave it unattended.

Seems that my 5-port orbital is not open center and dead heading my pump causing it to get real hot real fast.

Ok, I am REALLY going to show my newbieness. Is the propane the fuel source? It is a seriously sweet little ride! Nice work.

Yes, it runs on propane. Just like a forklift. Smells funny too.

Duh! I forgot about forklifts running on propane. Your right it does smell weird. lol
Can a vehicle be made to run on gas flip a switch to propane, or are there two many differences? Like switching an engine from gasoline & diesel?

Propane to gasoline works, but gasoline to diesel is much different technology.

Junior loves these tires. They are nice and soft on his teeth.
