Good luck on the propane... Based on how that motor sounds, im pretty sure it has a tapeworm. Mite should add a extra tank.
Were u gonna put air bumps on it? Wheres the cans? Maybe im thinkin of another rig..?

Check for a vacuum leak in your baseplate, etc... very very hard to find. But if yer drinking the pane, you probably have one.

I could deffinately be wrong, but I think that I read an Impco manual that said that propane carbs adjust opposite of gasoline carbs. For example, if you want a leaner mix on a gas carb you adjust the screw in to tighten the needle to seat clearance. On the propane carb you would screw it out to restrict the valve.

This has seemed to work so far on my smaller propane stuff.
