Hi,
Well, in my experience,
propane engines:
Don't like cold weather, unless you have some sort of internal fuel heating
system. They tend to ice up and freeze at the regulator if not heated.
Have a little less power, I think about 20%.
The oil stays clean a lot longer.
Valves can wear due to lack of lubricants in gasoline.
Cleaner exhaust.
No fuel pump needed.
It's a little harder to find fuel.
And, of course.....
You can plumb in a stove, water heater and lanterns, making it a convenient
camping rig..............
Just some random thoughts from a random thinker.
