The Firman T09371 engine may start but not run on propane due to the following reasons:
1. Insufficient Propane Pressure: The natural gas fuel pressure range for the generator is specified as 7-11 inches of water column (0.25-0.40 psi). If the propane pressure is outside this range, the engine may fail to run properly.
2. Low Oil Level: If the oil level is below the required minimum, the low oil sensor could activate, stopping the engine. Ensure the oil sump is filled to the upper limit.
3. Improper Connection: The propane supply line may not be securely connected to the generator, or there may be a leak in the connection.
4. Blocked or Faulty Carburetor: The carburetor may have a blockage or malfunction that prevents the engine from running on propane.
5. Generator on Uneven Surface: If the generator is sitting at an angle, the oil sensor may falsely detect low oil levels and shut off the engine.
6. Ignition Issues: Faulty ignition components may cause the engine to stop after starting.
Ensure all these factors are checked and addressed.
