Thank you both for the replies... my comment about not planning to put gasoline in to the tank was really meaning to say I didn't want to introduce into the carburetor, hoses, nor into the bowl more so than into the tank.
When I'm done with the break in, I'll send some time with compressed air trying to get rid of any residual gasoline.
I'm sure I'll have more questions down the road.
Again, thanks!
You can use an external tank and get a fuel line from napa. Run the engine out of gasoline before running on propane or nat gas. Only the carb will have gasoline through it.
I'm pretty sure that just running the engine will cause the carb to get cleaned out since the vacuum will still be present sucking fumes, etc out of the bowel.
As an aside, I don't think you ever want to *not* run the fuel out of the carb before switching to propane/nat gas. I did that once, and it ran very poorly for a short time. I think this is because it was basically getting way too much fuel (gasoline + natural gas).
