Hi Mark,

Are you sure the propane is igniting on that first cycle? You can check by watching the EGT on the GSU, if the propane lights you will see the temps come up pretty quick. What you are describing usually involves the propane not igniting on the first cycle. If the motor has been starting OK up until now, then the glo plug has gone bad. Or you might be ruuning low on Pwermax.

If it is truly firing up the propane on the first try, then I need to think about it. Is it starting on the second try every time?


Going out for a couple of hours, then I will be back online to help.

Matt
