Benefits

Operating Costs: Reduced

Switching to propane autogas offers not only environmental benefits, but positive economics, too. Propane autogas fuel is about 30 to 40 percent lower compared to gasoline, with less maintenance costs over time. Visit the Savings Calculator to see how much money you can save.

Emissions: Reduced

Propane autogas burns far cleaner than gasoline, with less harmful emissions:

20 percent less nitrogen oxide
60 percent less carbon monoxide
Up to 24 percent fewer greenhouse gas emissions
Fewer particulate emissions

Visit our Knowledge Center for more details on environmental benefits.

Performance: Identical

A Ford F-350 equipped with the ROUSH CleanTech propane autogas fuel system delivers the same horsepower, torque, and towing capacity of a gasoline-powered Ford F-350 with a 5.4-liter V8 engine: 300 horsepower and 365 pounds-feet of torque. If you are in hot or cold weather, high or low altitude, snow or rain, you can depend on a Ford F-350 propane autogas truck to start and operate consistently and reliably.

Warranty: Identical

ROUSH CleanTech maintains the factory Ford 5-year / 60,000-mile limited powertrain warranty on vehicles equipped with the liquid propane autogas system. The ROUSH CleanTech propane autogas fuel system is covered by a limited 1-year / 12,000-mile warranty when installed on a truck that is no longer covered by the Ford factory warranty.

Serviceability: Identical

The ROUSH CleanTech liquid propane autogas fuel system can be serviced using standard Ford diagnostic equipment, with service centers all around the country. Visit the Dealer Locator to locate a service center near you, or call 800.59.ROUSH.

Environmental Sustainability

A number of government agencies and private companies are committed to sustainable strategies to reduce their emissions and carbon footprint. Fueling with propane autogas is an opportunity for your company to showcase a measurable positive impact on the environment, while branding your company as sustainable and earning customer loyalty in the process. You’ll also be doing your part to help reduce our country’s dependence on foreign oil.

Refueling

With thousands of propane refueling stations across the United States, refueling isn’t an issue. The U.S. Department of Energy maintains a database of propane fueling stations here. Alternatively, many companies are choosing to install on-site fueling at little or no cost, with federal tax incentives in place to help offset any costs. If you’re interested in obtaining your own refueling infrastructure, please call 800.59.ROUSH or contact us here.

Tax Incentives

A variety of federal and state government incentives are in place to help transition away from conventional fuels and encourage the switch to clean burning alternatives. Incentives include tax credits on fuel and partial reimbursement for fueling infrastructure. To find out your specific state and federal tax incentives for your location, click here.

System Overview

Switching to an alternative fuel doesn’t have to mean complexity. While a lot of engineering and development go into the design of the system, the components are all designed to fit within the same mounting points of the gasoline system found on the original vehicle. The system can be broken down into a few primary assemblies:

Fuel Rail Assembly

Fuel Rail
Fuel Injectors
Injection Pressure / Temperature Sensor

Fuel Line Assembly

Fuel Lines
Flow Control Solenoid

Fuel Tank Assembly

Fuel Tank
Fuel Pump
Fuel Level Sensor

Recalibration of Ford Powertrain Control System

Calibration
Wiring Harness

Special Note about Cylinder Heads:

Cylinder heads in the 2009 – 2010 Ford F-350 5.4L 3V engine do not come from the factory with hardened valve seats. In high mileage applications, valve recession can occur when using propane, CNG, and other fuels that do not have the same lubricants gasoline and diesel do.

ROUSH CleanTech is taking the extra steps to ensure customer satisfaction by requiring cylinder head replacements with hardened valve seats on new, pre-titled vehicles, and offering a cylinder head replacement option for retrofit applications.

While this solution is required on 2009 – 2010 Ford F-350s, Ford has developed an alternative fuel prep engine for our other propane product offerings that addresses this issue. Hardened valve seats can be added at time of vehicle order to the 5.4L 2V engine and the 6.8L 2v and 3v engines. ROUSH CleanTech and their dealership partners will not be required to swap heads on these vehicles in the future.
