I mentioned mine doesn't burn above the burner ring until it's on the
four setting and Dickinson said that was wrong. It should vaporize on
one, which is where most people have it set. 5 usually drives people
out of a 40 foot boat so something is haywire here.


Well I took mine completely apart, cleaned out every air supply hole and I
also did the fuel rate calibration thing to check on the operation of the
carburetor. I'm sure it would not burn well on a 1 setting.


You mentioned that when its set at 5 it usually drives people out of your
boat.
I am about to install a heater for my next boat. Correct me if I am wrong
but I think that this type of heater has the heat to go up the cabin and
nothing below your belt. I would benefit from your comments.
