A supplemental fuel system for a machine with an engine is configured to monitor a voltage of a power supply of the machine based on voltage data acquired by a voltage sensor where the power supply is configured to receive power from an alternator driven by the engine, compare the voltage to a voltage threshold, and control an electronic lock off valve positioned between a supplemental fuel tank and an air supply system for the engine such that the electronic lock off valve is (i) closed to prevent a supplemental fuel from being provided from the supplemental fuel tank to the to the air supply system in response to the voltage being less than the voltage threshold and (ii) open or openable to permit the supplemental fuel to be provided to the air supply system in response to the voltage being greater than the voltage threshold.
