Fast Fill FuelMaker goes to Vegas!

We couldn't find a home for the dual Big Q FuelMaker Compressors and Fast Fill in Arizona, so it finally found a home in Las Vegas.
A New Phill Pumping Fuel In Scottsdale!

A New Phill pumping clean natural gas into a new Honda GX at a home in Scottsdale!
(This was the last Phill we were able to get out of Toronto before FuelMaker was shut down)
CNG Services New Gas Pipe Threading Trailer
With some of the proceeds from the Fast Fill sale we had a family project to build a new gas pipe threading trailer.
All went pretty well except for my drilling a hole into the sidewall of one of the tires......................
Getting the fast fill sold was a real blessing and enabled us to reduce our debt while we weather the troubles
FuelMaker has been having.
FuelMaker and Fueling Systems Solutions, Factory in Transit
Fueling Systems Solutions now owns FuelMaker.
The good news is they have hired back Paula Hebert to help get things organized, Mario Pirraglia was hired back first and will now concentrate on international sales, Paula will take care of the USA. The Toronto factory is now empty, everything is in trucks or containers and now headed to either
the IMPCO factory in Detroit or BRC in Italy. Manufacturing will move to Italy. The US sales and service will be through IMPCO Technologies.
The Murray Utah service center will be temporarily opened back up to help clear the parts back log and then will also move to IMPCO in Detroit.
So parts and service are their first priority and then new manufacturing to follow. We will let you know as we get more information!!
