Frost on the propane tank or
regulator
1. This can be a normal occurrence caused when
liquid propane changes phase to a gas. As this
process occurs the fuel tank or regulator will cool
and allow humid air surrounding the propane tank
or regulator to condense into frost.
1. As this can be normal, providing all the propane
fuel handling equipment is functioning normally, no
remedy is needed.
2. The propane tank is not equipped with a OPD
(rollover protection device) and has been stored
in a horizontal position allowing liquid propane to
enter the downstream fuel handling equipment.
2. If you suspect your propane fuel tank is not
equipped with a OPD device, discontinue operation
immediately and replace the propane fuel tank with
a propane tank equipped with a roll over protection
device.
3. Propane fuel tank over filled. 3. 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.
Propane fuel smell
1. Fuel regulator or fuel hose and fittings not
securely sealed.
1. Using a soap solution check each connection and
tighten as needed.
2. Propane fuel regulator vent active. 2. The propane fuel regulator is equipped with a small
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.
3. Residual fuel from the carburetor dispersing
after operation.
3. Normal, no remedy is needed.
