<HTML>Hi,,,My experiance is that the burner will function down to a verry lo fire and still behave,,[ no pop at nozzle],, I suspect a crack in the vaporizer especially if its changed behavor by it self,,,IF you had gone from 40/60 k-1/gas to 40/60 diesel/gas,,I could understand the problem,,The racer stinks on shutoff / w/ too much diesel,,got caught a time or 2 w diesel and no gas,, got it lit ok [ carefully ] but shut down was stinky,,,,Yours has changed by itself ,so I suspect a crack,,, IF THE vaporizer has cracked,,I would think it should run rich while running,, Hmmmm,,,, OPEN the top flap hold your breath and fan fumes w/your hand,,,burner on,,,,if its rich , your eyes will water,,,,, Careful,,the fumes are LOADAD w/ MONOXIDE ,,, use care,, As Rolly sugests,,a crack COULD produce an unsafe fire , so it's propably best to drop the burner and have a look,,,its safer,,, Glad to hear another 735 is running,,,,Where are you,,,Cheers Ben in Maine p/s we had hail,and a thunder storm last nite,,snowed on Mt Washington,,mini tornado near Potrsmouth NH, turned a trailer rig over,, Rumor has it all the mosquitoes are now somewhere south of DC ,,,,had the racer over to NHIS Speedway at Loudon NH saturday, parked next to a Masaratti racer,, ,Everyone enjoyed,,,CB</HTML>
