Hey Michael,


Have you tried measuring the propane pressure with a manometer?  It seems
like it would be best to get the pressure set to factory specs, then
continure trouble shooting.  Here is a link for a DIY manometer that was
posted on the list at some point:

I haven't tried to build this thing yet, but it looks like fun.


Have you checked the exhaust and intake tubes for any obstructions?


Good luck,
Jake
