Got it bought, home and cleaned up. Now we gotta figure out how to get it started 😞. Any tips? Helpful advice? We know nothing about LP

Same rules apply
Fuel
Spark
Air
Compression
Occasionally the needle in the regulator will get stuck from setting
Should have an evaporator on it somewhere
It uses hot water from the engine to vaporize the liquid propane
Tank alone cannot vaporizer enough for it to run much more than an idle



PS it cleaned up pretty nice
 
My John Deere LP has two valves--liquid and vapor. Start it on vapor, then switch to liquid after it warms up. As Joey mentioned, the warm coolant from the engine will then vaporize the liquid.
 
You really upped the ante on horse pressure going from Cubs to this.😄 I'd be delighted to share what I know about LP fuel but I respectfully decline discussing it here. The problem is for you to sort out what's true and what isn't and I can't argue with members with higher post counts. Follow line(s) from tank to carburetor and post pictures of each device on lines. Post one or more pictures of carburetor then contact me through private message with your specific question(s). If no question in particular other than where to begin , we will start from the top.

Then I can't learn/pick up pointers

But I get it

I know nothing about it and if you posted some of it here I could learn. not that I plan on ever having an LP but love to learn about these things. I wouldn't worry about the guys who don't know right from wrong but I do understand some times there is a conflicting info posted and one must decide what makes more sense.
