Petxl21, double check that the 2 black fittings that the vapor hose attaches to are tight.  I was just under my hood and those fittings were juggling they were so loose.  I had been smelling LPG for the last week.

I have the got propane kit, that i purchased used.  I smell propane when running, so i am thinking it is running to rich.  i have not adjusted the screw on the carb at all.  is that the only adjustment screw on the carb?  Do i screw it in our out to lean out the propane?  Anyone know how i can get mine dialed in so i am not wasting propane?

Have you sprayed the hoses with soapy water?

Double checked those, and did the soapy water test, nothing leaking out.  The screw on the carb, if i screw it in, does that lean out the propane, or the reverse of this.

Are you sure you have 12V to the solenoid?

Ive done a Chevy 4.3 engine swap in my 89 toyota with a Holley Carb and also did the GotPropane Dual fuel conversion running both pump gas then can switch over to propane. I luv running on propane its very smooth, like running an EFI setup. I run a 10 gallon propane tank or rated at 43.5lbs and pulled close to 100 miles out of the tank. Propane last fill up sunday was $2.99 gallon 9.7 gallons only cost me about $29.00. I am VERY Happy with the propane system and highly recommend it for a 4x4 Non-EFI equiped engine.

I wish the dual fuel option was around back when I ordered my kit. It would prefer that over the EFI swap I just did. Propane really is sweet, just not convienant for long road trip style wheeling.
