The natural gas genset is more complex because it is spark ignited and not a less complex pure diesel. It required parts that were special to a gaseous engine rather than a liquid diesel.
I feel the two month hold up was a vendor not getting the electronics done correctly or by the promised date..... for the natural gas gen.
That natural gas engine (2), I feel held up the less complex units getting out the door and made testing of a finalized natural gas genset stretch its scheduled completion date.
I also feel that the conversion process is fairly straight forward after the bugs of each part get fixed, I would feel about 4 to 8 hours on a swap-out would be doable. Of course there would then be run-in and tests per the customer but that is all part of the QC (quality control).
Just my opinion though. Stay very long.
