    One thing I don't like is the size of the pilot it looks way to big to me it's 2" wide by 4" blue bottom yellow ragged top Thanks Jerry

    He probably did not replace the pilot orifice either. LOL But he found a birds nest. WOW that is great but when your unit soots up from your incomplete no proper tool conversion from Nat to propane just remember I mentioned it twice.

    Look back at his other post about problems since he did a propane conversion. It is on a different thread.
