Re: Diesel heater
I hope you find out what the trouble was Nini!
Diesel fumes can be terrible at times.
Stings your eyes and gets into your clothes etc and is hard to get rid of.
Did Wayne install it or was it 'proffessionally' installed?

This is "Chick" speaking whilst sitting cross legged under a low table in an attempt to lift my voice range in an attempt to match the "name" !
Problem was initially low gas pressure caused by the regulator having some 'gunk' in it ... after changing the regulator & going through various scenarios of leaking connections & gradually correcting them...
IT WORKED!!!!!
