There should be an air adjuster on the unit, open it all the way and look around inside to see if a spider has built a nest. Apparently spiders love propane and they just love to crawl into propane burners.
Once you get the nest cleared out you may have to play with the air adjustment a little to get things just right. We discovered at ChowdaQ (last year?) that any amount of wind is awful hard on those turkey friers (at least on Dwight's) and its hard to run them at anything less than full bore. For your needs full bore is probably fine though. -Curt ________________________________ From: Randy Bennell via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> To: "arche...@embarqmail.com" <arche...@embarqmail.com>; Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 12:39 PM Subject: [MBZ] OT propane burners Do we have anyone on here that knows anything about propane burners? We have acquired one of the turkey cooker units as my good wife is doing some canning and the enamel ware canner is not to be used on our smooth glass top stove in the kitchen. The burner works well to boil water in the canner but the flame is obviously not the way it ought ot be. There is too much yellow flame and the pot ends up rather sooty. I did a quick look on the web and there are some suggestions that cleaning up the rough casting of the burner unit will make it more efficient. I believe one of the other suggestions was to improve the windscreen around the burner unit. Anyone have any useful thoughts on the subject?
