ok, requote your statement. "2 people that have posted anything on a forum board as far as i am are aware are using lehr propane"
until youve done it you cant say its practical or not.
it is a matter of personal opinion i guess, but ive found refilling is easy, so thats no problem.
i need to constantly refill a fuel tank with petrol anyway so whats the difference?
gas doesnt make a mess when it leaks unless someone sparks up
i get two hours run time on however much gas i squeeze in when i do refill (weigh...huh?)
at the price i get lpg for, theres nothing anywhere near as cheap.
the only reason im NOT running lpg or propane, whatever, is more because im lazy and got a HT and just didnt bother with mounting the lehr...properly, anyways. found it slightly too gutless for my um...area of intended useage, so shelved it til future times.
but, back to the original question, almost any walbro type carb will work with modifications, but one thing i didnt mention is that you need to be able to retain the existing airfilter.
it contains the pcv/bypass valve that is part of the lubrication system, not just a breather valve or emissions thingy. its an oiltrap, and crankcase pressure is actually used as the "oil pump". the valve allows excess pressure to escape whilst retaining and returning oil to the sump.
you CANT bypass or remove it. or use the crankcase as a pulse for the carb.
makes it slightly trickier. finding the ideal carb is just that lil bit harder again.
