TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
Propane fuel smell
Poor performance or en-
gine stalling on Propane
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Fuel regulator or fuel hose and fittings not se-
curely sealed.
Propane fuel regulator vent active.
Residual fuel from the carburetor dispersing after
operation.
Propane fuel line kinked or crushed.
Fuel selector valve not properly positioned.
Gasoline not purged from the carburetor before
switching to propane.
CORRECTION
Using a soap solution check each con-
nection and tighten as needed.
The propane fuel regulator is equipped
with a vent that will allow a small amount
of propane fuel vapor to escape from
the regulator when the propane tank
valve is opened. This can be normal
providing the venting of the propane is
brief. If you suspect that this is abnormal,
immediately discontinue use and have
the propane regulator inspected by a
qualified technician.
Normal, no correction is needed.
Inspect propane fuel line and remove
kinks or other obstructions.
Rotate the fuel valve fully until the pointer
is directly in line with the desired fuel.
Close the propane fuel tank valve. Move
the fuel selector switch to gas. Start the
engine and allow the engine to run until
the gasoline has been consumed in
the carburetor. Begin propane start up
procedure.
