Hyster S1.50XL (B010) We've had problems starting this thing and we figured out, if we took out the pressure of the gas in the inlet feed pipe it would start but then we had to be careful not to open the gas bottle valve too much otherwise it would cut out. Now when we finish using the FLT we close off the gas bottle and wait for the gas to run out before we turn off the truck so we can start it again. Its very hard to turn the gas bottle on enough to start it but not too much to choke it. Its driving us crazy having to mess around like this - please can someone help to identify what the issue is and what we need to check/replace/tweak etc..? be glad of some help.
