Subject:      Stove Burner Flame Problem 82 Wesfalia
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Strange occurrance. I went to use the stove in my 82 Westfalia which I
have not used in three months or so. I have been running the refer on
propane pretty continuously for the last two weeks. The rear or left
burner (which I tried first) produced a very large lazy yellow flame that
was 6"-8" tall fed by all the jets but producing one large flame. I
immediatly shut down, and puzzled, tried it agin with the same results.
Next, I tried the front, or right, burner - and got the usual results: a
series of small blue 1" flames standing nearly straight out from the
burner like a usual gas stove. I am assuming this is a pressure thing
with the left burner. Hss anyone else had this effect? The only
additional piece of information that I can offer is that I forgot I was
running the refer and tok the van out and drove around Seattle for most
of the day with the refer on propane (oops - hadn't done that before),
but I can't imagine how that would cause the burner to act that way, and
not effect the entire system.

TIA
Adam
