  4. 50% power

Discussion:
50% power

LP gas, 4 cyl, late model cat lift, one ton. Ran fine, changed oil, oil filter, air filter. About 3 days later the unit just loses power if the pedal is pushed beyond 50%. I know the oil change had nothing to do with it, but that's all I did. Idle is fine, starting is fine-seems like it's starving for fuel-changed tank- no difference.
Thanks for any help

it's all your fault any way, you touched it, you own it, and are married to it, now...
you don't say which serial number series??
maybe the hose that runs between the mixer and the regulator?
maybe an extra 'o' ring in the truck half of the quick disconnect for the LPG tank?? (any is too many)
Maybe you need to also do a tune up?

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
