Description

The number of light- and medium-duty vehicles powered by alternative fuels is growing every year. Mandates such as the federal Energy Policy Act and the California Federal Pilot Program require most large fleets to include alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) in ever-growing numbers. All of this means that the demand for AFV technicians is increasing dramatically. The AFV technician needs to know everything that is currently applicable to light- and medium-duty vehicles, along with new technology to deal with the gaseous fuel system, engine, electronics, and exhaust. For an experienced automotive technician, the greatest challenges when working with AFVs include the concepts of working with fuels such as natural gas and propane, emission-control equipment, electronic ignition, and safety.
