Georbeckha, hate to see that man. You can rebuild though. Pete. I am afraid of those fire as well. Thats why I have a Man cut-off in between the fuel solenoid and the turbine itself. When I'm starting, I never cut the Man valve on intill I hear a pop. That way if I don't get a propane light-off I don't pump the turbine full of Jet-A. I have never had a miss-start since i started doing that. Thats if and when all else is right. Plenty of gas, plug voltage right and all that. Good luck
That is a technique that would really give me piece of mind.
Im a bit confused though, If the ecu doesn't see a temp increase consistent with gas combustion why would the solenoid open up for the Kero? Wouldn't that be a precaution against a shutdown due to improper gas flow?
