Terry Haines Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Does it currently run dual fuel or has it not run on CNG for many years? I ask because a lot of CNG components, valves, regulators etc can perish over the years. If this has been a no CNG car for some time then I'd knock the price down. Most all Contour CNG cars were converted by a company in Canada and it should have a decal under the hood. These gu s will have spares etc and know who should work on such CNG systems.

Fatbusdriver Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I also just bought a CNG Contour. I have two issues: the temp gauge doesn't work, and the CNG system won't turn on. Anybody have any suggestions? -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
