can this gas range be converted to lp gas - moz-screenshot.pngmoz-screenshot-1.pngTurn off the gas supply.
Locate the gas valve regulator. Unscrew the top cap on the regulator,turn it over and re-install it.It should be marked NAT. LP.When correctly converted you will be able to read LP.
On the Performa all the conversion parts should just be adjustments. Remove the oven racks,remove the oven base pan,remove the oven flame spreader pan to access the safety valve. Take a 1/2 inch open end wrench and tighten the orifice on top of the gas safety valve. Tighten it until it is snug.Remove the top burners and raise the top to access the surface gas valves.Tighten the valve spuds until snug. Re-assemble all parts.Turn the gas back on and lite the burners. Turn them high and low to make sure they stay lit. If any burner is not right tighten or loosen the orifice spud for that burner only. All air shutter adjustments should be full open,

I NEED TO CHANGE THE ORFICE IN THE OVEN FROM NATURAL GAS TO PROPAIN WHERE IS IT LOCATAED AND HOW DO I DO THIS??

To convert this range to LP, you do not need to replace the orifices. The range comes with universal (double coaxial) orifices. You need to convert the pressure regulator; the procedure depends on the range. Then screw down the burner orifice hoods down to the pins. Do not over-tighten or you wil risk damaging the orifice. Then adjust the burner air shutter. For the oven burner, look behind the burner cover. It's shown on as part 25 on the oven/base diagram here: https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model-number/MGR5750BDQ/3048/0124002.html . You can find the range bake and broiler burners shown on the gas controls diagram.

The instructions for converting the Maytag MGR5750BDQ from natural gas to liquid propane (NG to LP) is shown in the installation instructions for the range, starting on page 10. Maytag has the documentation on their support page: . The current link to the manual is https://www.maytag.com/content/dam/global/documents/201103/installation-instructions-8101P404-60.pdf .

I hope this helps.

Swithed to LP

Natural Gas has a pressure at about 1/4oz psi. Propane runs at a much higher pressure 8 psi to 15 psi. For your safety do not use the oven until it is garenteed that the oven is rated for LP Gas!
Hope, this helps, Sea Breeze

Converting a GE Profile Gas Range from LP to natural gas

GE ships gas ranges set for natural gas, with the LP orifices included, usually on a metal tab held with one screw right near the regulator (where the gas connects to the range). If the range was converted to LP, the person who did the conversion was suppose to put the natural gas orifices back in that holder. If they are missing, comment back on the exact model number and I can look up the part number(s) for you.
