Exactly the point - adjust it while running till burns clean. So the band opens and closes air vents. What air shutter does? It's a two piece adjustment.
Wayne burner has single piece band - easy.

Russ, can you explain to me how to work air adjustment on beckett burners? With wayne it's simple - loosen bolt on air band and move counterclockwise for less air, the other way for more. Beckett has airband and air shutter with numbers thingy and I can't find it in literature what the shutter does and how they correlate. Manual says - loosen both, adjust for clean burn, tighten back up - whole lot of help!

Get your tanks made by Ronco plastics. They will weld fittings in where you need them.

Thank you.

Anyone has experience with gx630 mufflers? My new unit has gx630 with this small black muffler. My older one has gx630 with bigger muffler with heat shield with holes. New unit seems to be louder.

Put new nozzle in and remembered Jerry from Sirocco saying to me: "burner vents need to be open just enough to support clean burn, too much air is bad for the spark" so closed them by 1/2 inch. Seems to be burning clean so far! Thanks everyone.

Does anyone have experience of tapping into Econoline van gas tank and running pw off the vehicles gas tank? Would be sweet to have to fill up only one tank and eliminate second gas tank all together.

Waterproof, prewired on both sides, 360 lumens, have two magnets attached.
I hang two above rear doors of the van and the whole cargo area is lit up.

Today after I was done with the job I shut down the new machine and was rolling up hoses and stuff. 10 minutes later I notices smoke faintly coming out of the burner stack with machine off. Checked the inside and had blue smelly smoke coming out of the coil wrap. Poured water bottle down the stack. Took out nozzle assembly. Haven't seen one like that. Looked ok but was soaked in diesel. Stuck my hand up into burner hole on the bottom to make sure insulation wasn't in the way. It wasn't but it was soaked. Nozzle is huge too 3.25 80b. All my other units have 2.25 80b. For some reason not pall of the fuel ignites. Was pretty scary.

I had today smoke coming out of the coil even though washer was off for about 10 minutes already.

I had gun swivels explode 3 times and hose would whip up. Only once hose missed me.
I only use mossmatic DGV gun swivels now.

Header wrap saved many of our guys from burns.

I was under impression you can't do that with 390. I have one of those and I actually got a bigger tank and wanted to hang it above the space where old one gallon tank was. I'd like to avoid hanging tank above engine.

Connect psi gauge and see if it drops to zero when trigger is released, right?
-
I have machines that do that with 2000 hours on them and the ones with 5 hours on them. When you squeeze trigger burner shoots a size able puff of blue really nasty smelling smoke and then burns clean. Every time you trigger it. Then when you drive after you can smell that nasty stuff in the van because machine still gives off that. My burner are direct vented through the roofs outside. What's going on here? Leaky solenoid a on old machines? What about new one?

I have the same problem with yellow piece falling off. Anyone sells them?
-
You think ON/OFF switch is bad? When you turn the burner on is burner motor on and fan wheel inside burner is spinning?
-
I am not good at wiring stuff. :)

My thought was that 250 thermostat would allow it to maybe go from 190-195 to 200-205. I actually prefer to not have thermostat at all. We don't use them. We clean grease so we always use hot water and always have it at max - the hotter the better. I've had a skid before that just had Burner On/Off switch.
-
I jumped two wires and burner doesn't do the "stop and go" thing anymore. It stays on as long as I hold the trigger. Is it safe to say I need new thermostat? It's GP one that goes to 195, can I replace with the model that goes to 250?

Hotsy in Toms River also can come to you. $125 trip charge I believe.

I try to fix anything that breaks myself. There is one guy in NJ that is mobile out of Hackettstown, meaning he will come to you, and he is about the only guy I use. Most of the time, I can figure it out myself or with a phone call or two.The new shop makes working on equipment alot easier that doing it in a truck, trailer or my own garage.
Hackettstown? Hackettstown Hotsy?
i try myself and if I fail I go to Hotsy in toms river.
Send me please info on the mobile guy.

This is actually not the first time people tell me about signature but on my screen it shows I have signature, right on the bottom there with phone number and all.

Thank you Michael.
Do you fix your equipment yourself? Any good shops in NJ or Philadelphia you know of?

So to run gx390 from remote tank I ll need to use fuel pump from let's say gx630, connect it to the battery and put a switch for turning it on. The turn it on before I start the engine. Is there a 12 v hook up on the engine that can power up the fuel pump when you turn the key? I have electric start engine.
