TROUBLESHOOTING
POSSIBLE CAUSE
If the temperature of the propane tank drops below
the dew point, condensation on the tank may turn to
frost or ice. This typically occurs in humid conditions.
The Propane tank is not equipped with an Overfilling
Prevention Device (OPD).
Propane fuel tank overfilled.
Fuel regulator or fuel hose and fittings not securely
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
Providing all the propane fuel handling equipment
is functioning normally, no correction is needed.
If you suspect your propane fuel tank is not
equipped with an OPD device, discontinue
operation immediately and replace the propane
fuel tank with a propane tank equipped with a an
OPD.
If you suspect your propane fuel tank has been
overfilled, discontinue operation immediately
and return the propane fuel tank to the place of
purchase or refilling.
Using a soap solution check each connection
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.
