Discussion:
Hard to start, flooding

Recently acquired this machine.
When it starts and runs it runs well at wide open but struggles to idle properly.
When the LP bottle is turned on i can hear gas flowing through the throttle body when the key is on. If i shut the LP off and attempt to start it i can get it to crank with the bottle slightly cracked.
It seems the machine is flooding.
I have been able to retrieve codes.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
