Does the vaporizer go into the top water housing where the top hose goes if so it is a zenith vaporizer there is a allen screw at the top that is were you check the gas pressure it is around 8to 12psi any more and the vaporizer is bad also the carb could cause to blow gas through must check at vaporizer first hope this helps.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
