[TheForge] propane forge burner book

Fri Feb 27 15:30:01 2004

It's quite simple, actually. But while you're online, how about
answering my original questions first :-)?

Anyway, instead of a ball valve for shutting the thing down, I use a
needle valve. I don't know if all needle valves are the same, but mine
goes from off to full on in about 1 1/2 turns. My current burner idles
very nicely at 1/2 turn from off. So when I go from full on to idle, I
just twist the handle one full turn. You can see a picture of the
plumbing here: http://ironringforge.com/NewForgeSaga/New_Forge_Saga.html

OK, now your turn - how far down does your 3/4" advanced burner idle? Do
you have to adjust the choke to do this?
