Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Conversion Kit (Lp Gas) (Part Number: OEM18041799)

1 Answer

Pam The colors and the numbers engraved on the side of the orifice refer to the size of the opening, which corresponds to a specific BTU rating of each burner. Your range has three different sized burners and they need to be installed in the proper location. So: The one(1) All Brass orifice (65mm) is for the oven, the broil burner to be exact. The two(2) Black ringed orifices (67mm)will be installed in the right front and the left rear burners. The one(1)Blue ringed orifice(95mm) will be installed in the right rear burner. and the Green ringed orifice(1.05mm) will be installed in the left front burner. The oven bake burner orifice will need to be adjusted. using a 1/2 inch open end wrench, you'll need to turn the orifice hood on the safety valve 2 to 2 1/2 revolutions down(clockwise) to lower the orifice onto the internal LP pin inside the valve. Don't forget, you'll need to remove the "cap" on the regulator and "flip" the cap so that the LP mark is facing up. Also make sure you label the Nat gas orifices and set them aside in a safe place on the range, so you can have them handy, should you have to convert the range back to Nat gas.

Jr, the NG conversion kit is part number 814390. Unfortunately, this item has been discontinued with no further replacements or cross references available and our company is unaware of any other available sources. Sorry about that!
