9.
Start engine and run for approximately 4 minutes.
10.
Disconnect vacuum hose from choke diaphragm at the carburetor and install propane supply hose in its place. Ensure propane cylinder remains
upright during this procedure.
11.
Remove PCV valve from cylinder head cover and allow valve to draw underhood air.
12.
Open propane main valve, then slowly open propane metering valve until maximum engine RPM is reached. Too much propane will cause
engine speed to drop. Adjust metering valve to obtain maximum idle RPM.
13.
With propane still flowing, adjust idle speed screw on solenoid to obtain specified propane RPM, Fig. 2.
14.
Adjust metering valve to obtain maximum RPM. If there has been a change in maximum RPM, readjust idle speed screw to specified enriched
RPM.
15.
Turn off propane valve and allow engine speed to stabilize.
16.
Slowly adjust mixture screws by equal amounts to obtain smoothest idle at specified curb idle RPM, allowing time between adjustments for engine
speed to stabilize.
17.
Turn on main propane valve and adjust metering valve to obtain maximum engine RPM. If maximum engine speed differs by more than 25 RPM
from specified propane RPM, repeat steps 12 through 17.
18.
When adjustment is correct, turn off both propane valves, stop engine and remove tool.
19.
Install concealment plugs and vacuum lines, then connect PCV valve.
20.
Disconnect carburetor electrical connector, then install green and blue wires in their correct positions. Reconnect carburetor electrical connector.
21.
Perform ``Curb Idle Speed, Adjust'' and ``Fast Idle Speed, Adjust'' procedures.

RPM.
14.
Turn off propane valve and allow engine speed to stabilize.
15.
Slowly adjust mixture screws by equal amounts, using tool No. C-4895 or equivalent, obtain smoothest idle at specified curb idle RPM, allowing
time between adjustments for engine speed to stabilize.
16.
Turn on main propane valve and adjust metering valve to obtain maximum engine RPM. If maximum engine speed differs by more than 25 RPM
from specified propane RPM, repeat steps 11 through 16.
