By any chance does anyone know where the fuel cutoff would be for the LPG D17? I have a copper line going from the LPG tank directly into the ensign regulator/converter. Here is a picture of the unit.  |

| The fuel shut off is the valve on the tank |

| There is a valve inside the regulator that shuts fuel from regulator to engine. MACK |

Haha. Yes I know where the tank valve is. I meant the fuel shutoff valve that only opens when the engine is cranking via vacuum. Sorry I should have been more specific. So it's inside that dang regulator eh? |

| If something is wrong in the converter/regulator parts for the ensign are made of unobtainium..unless you can find a LP dealer that might have some old stock laying around |

So I've heard. According to the service manuals diagram of the ensign converter it seems pretty basic. Luckily I have the capability to make parts and or have parts made that I need SO im hoping I can accomplish that. After reading the service manual I believe that the low pressure valve is leaking due to debris since the previous owner did a filter delete... SMH.... |

| Do yourself a favor and change it over to an Impco regulator and carburetor. I have a couple tractors both the original Ensign and Impco and the Impco are easier starting and run better. |
