Impco Automotive has announced that the Environmental Protection Agency has certified its bi-fuel compressed natural gas system for 2011 Ford F-250 and F-350 pickups with the 6.2L V8 gaseous-prepped engine.

“We are excited to expand our offering of products to convert popular Ford trucks that run solely on gasoline to either clean-burning, plentiful, domestic CNG, or conventional gasoline,” said Rob Lykins, automotive director of sales & marketing. “Our innovative Sequent-EX bi-fuel systems enable individual vehicle owners and fleet operators to select the fuel on which to operate their vehicles depending on availability and fuel cost.”

The system will switch the vehicle’s fuel source from CNG to gas at the touch of button, the company said.

“Impco continues to aggressively invest in future growth opportunities in North America by bolstering our automotive business with innovative new products that position us as the leader in the emerging US natural gas vehicle market," said Rick Nielsen, president.
