Joe for Model Number Kitchenaid KGSC308LSS0 Received part WP9755424 and need to convert it to LP (propane). I have the Kitchen aid conversion instructions that describe turning over the "regulator" dohickey (under white cap) and reinstalling it. But, I find the brass orifice fitting (13mm hex) going to the oven is quite reluctant to turn. I am hesitant to proceed as it does not seem reasonable to force it. I've done a bit of mechanical work and this feels a bit like "better stop before you snap it off". Been through this before but do not recall it being so reluctant.

It is correct that the orifice hood should not be overtightened as this can damage the pin under it. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, November 9, 2022
