Subject: RE: Propane generator running rich??


West Central Iowa
It is a total vapor system, no liquid is removed from the tank.The generator specs call for 11"WC for pressure, which is the same as all of the appliances run. The vapor comes out of the tank(S) to a combination regulator/tank auto switch valve. At the generator it goes into an electric fuel solenoid valve and then into a demand regulator and then into the mixer (carb). The demand regulator looks similar to the one you posted the link for, I would have to remove it to tell for sure.

The fuel pressure I posted was a static reading, I did not have the correct fittings to tee the manometer in last night. I plan on getting the fittings today and then I will be able to get a reading of the pressure running and when it starts to smooth out as I close the tank valve.

Good idea about the boys in Manilla, I bought a forklift from Jeff a number of years ago, but I never thought about giving him a call. He is a really good guy and I am sure he will probably be able to help me figure this out.

Thanks for all the help so far!
