Any one know how much one of these burns per hr on light work and heavy work? Need to find a Carb and some other parts yet.

The fuel economy (or lack of) really takes it's toll on my M5 LP. The tank isn't that big and it's gone quickly. I recall a plow day a couple of years ago. Heavy ground, field 3/4 mile long, 40 minutes to make a round, 8 rounds and the day was over for me. I've gone the way of many and mounted another tank on the M5 for more capacity.

Nebraska test756, 5.3 to 5.5 gal. per hour. That is close it would take most of 5gal. to go get 2 big bales for the cows. 20 years ago.

That sounds about right for our M5. The 336 is thirsty whether it's working hard or just loafing.
