a too lean mix will cause a backfire crank up regulator acually i think most regs, emit more gas by backing the adjustment screw out if it even has such thing never worked on one. or around here they sell butane for propane Im sure cuz it dont burn worth a dam and smells different, as for air cleaner i would fab. a check valve in plumbing for relief like pvc one way drain valve 2 inch or so???
