Liquid propane enters the vaporizer and is then heated to a gaseous state. The gaseous fuel is released to the Compuvalve at 40 psia for engine coolant temperatures greater than or equal to 25°C (77°F). Below this temperature, delivery pressure decreases with reduction of engine coolant temperature to a minimum of 32 psia at 0°C (32°F), optimizing vaporization capacity.
