National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium (NAFTC) training

The Propane Autogas Vehicle Technician Training Course offered by the National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium at West Virginia University is designed for groups to learn how to efficiently service and maintain propane autogas vehicles. The comprehensive training encompasses various aspects such as the functioning of liquid and vapor-injected systems, and the differences between converted and factory-made vehicles. Participants gain insights into components like injection systems, engine design, fuel systems, and electric controls, along with the physical properties and characteristics of propane autogas. The course also covers the production process of propane autogas, its advantages and limitations, and essential safety practices. By the end of the course, participants are equipped to retrofit conventional vehicles to utilize propane autogas effectively, applying safety protocols during maintenance operations.
