I've done it, using the drill-the-carburetor method. I switch back and forth between propane and gasoline, and once ran it for a few hours straight on propane when the grid power was out. With one exception it runs great on propane. The exception is that I have to adjust the mixture based on the load. If adjusted for smooth idle, it won't develop full power. If adjusted for full power, it idles rough. Don't know if that's typical, or just my setup. Before drilling the carb, I fabricated a home-made snorkel. It ran exactly the same with it as it does with the tube drilled into the carb. I drilled the carb thinking the snorkel was causing the mixture problem, only to find out it wasn't. My OPINION is that if using only LP, you don't ever have to exercise it unless it's stored in a wet or high humidity location.
