I think there has to be more than meets the eye on such a conversion. Propane is stored a liquid and I assume methane is as well. Can the propane tanks withstand the pressure required to liquefy methane? Propane contains more energy than methane, will you realize a net savings? In any event I would guess you would have to adjust the fuel/air metering.
