Hi Aldo,

Here are my thoughts on this issue,

I'm assuming that you have run this engine previously and it ran fine and I'm assuming that your using the onboard propane tank, is this correct ?

Please check your propane filter at the solenoid. Clean as required.

With the propane tank or bottle connected directly to the engine, clamp the propane line and without starting the engine, can you hear the propane entering the engine when you remove the clamp ?

If you changed the glow plug, did you pull the bottom coil down out of the glow plug so that it is visable and below the bottom of the plug body ?

Be sure to have a full charge on the LiPo before attempting a start as the solenoids, glow drive and starter pull very high amps during the start cycle.

Also, if you have a Gaspar ECU, AND you have changed out the glow plug you may need to turn up the glow driver voltage. The glow plug must glow very bright orange to near white.

Please advise.

HELLO KERRY..

I DID ALL YOURS RECOMENTATIONS, THE TURBINE IGNITED WITH PROPANO , I THINK THAT THE PRINCIPAL CHANGE WAS PULL OUT THE COIL OF GLOW PLUG ...
THIS WEEK END I WILL TEST THE TURBINE IN SIDE OF JET AND WILL TAKE CARE WITH ALL DETAILS AND PROBLEMS IF THERE ARE ..

THANK.
