looking for some help i recently purchased this older forklift and it RAN GREAT once it was delivered it wouldnt start.
I noticed if i turn the propane tank off it will start and sound good until it runs out then it will stall. I tried to start it and then turn the tank on and again it stalls. Im thinking maybe from shipping something happened.l Looking to check all bases before replacing parts,
thanks

Hello Ralph, If you could give us the Model, Serial # and the type of propane system ( Impco, asin) It make it allot easier to know what kind of unit you have. It's like saying i have a Ford truck that won't run, can you help.? I suspect your propane system needs new kits installed

Try using a different fuel tank the one on the truck might be the problem.

By now you have tried the different LP tank and found that most likly it was a vaporizer that was allowing to much fuel and causing a flooding condition. If IMPCO lp it could also be the filter lock off vacumn line pulling extra fuel also.
