I don't think that forklift is going to have a choke. There is going to be only one valve on the tank and it is liquid only. The liquid gets converted to vapor by the combination vaporizer/regulator. This device will have a coolant line coming to and leaving it. It will be the size of a heater hose on an automobile. Like some others have said, there will be a button in the center of the regulator. If you push this button propane vapor will be admitted into the carburetor. Hold in on this button for about three seconds and then try the starter. Don't keep pushing on this button over and over. You will force gas past the pistons and rings and in to the crankcase. Upon ignition this gas in the crankcase will ignite and an explosion will occur. You might have to hunt your oil stick up and you might have to replace gaskets. I have seen both things happen.Back to the regulator or vaporizer or converter, it is all the same. Look for a hose going to the carburetor. It will be about one inch in diameter. It is usually pretty thin and has a wire coil made in to it to keep it from collapsing. These can a small hole in them and will leak. This hose is under a small amount of vacuum when the engine is running. The hard starting problem is usually a hole in this hose or a dirty regulator. But usually the dirty regulator makes an engine run bad until the water gets warm enough to melt the gooey stuff that collects inside the regulator. This may be more information than you wanted, but everything I said is from many years experience. Good luck. If I can help, let me know.
