Yes, there is an LP conversion kit for the CPR1100ADW. Sears Parts Direct lists it here: http://www.searspartsdirect.com/model-number/cpr1100adw/1429/0124002.html . Select the Gas Control drawing. The direct link to the LP orifice kit, part number 74009923, is http://www.searspartsdirect.com/part-number/74009923/0022/464.html?modelNumber=CPR1100ADW&categoryName=Free%20Standing,%20Gas&brandName=MAGIC%20CHEF . Note: the Magic Chef range uses the same parts as a Whirlpool or Maytag range. The gas regulator also has to be adjusted. Most ranges with converter kits available just require the regulator to be removed and turned 180 degrees before replacing it. It's recommended that a LP service person do the work. The air flow may need to be adjusted and any mistakes could be dangerous. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

changing from natural gas to lp gas requires different jet sizes and air shroud adjustments the information to get a professional gas fitter to do the conversion is valid as gas in is not in the domain of DIY A n accredited gas fitter will have the correct jet sizes available, will be able to set the air shrouds correctly and adjust the gas regulator correctly to the gas flow required Gas is more lethal than electricity with a much more destructive force .

Since all installs are unique I have no way to advise you.

Have you checked the internal temp with an oven thermometer? The thermostat might need calibrating or replacing, or, (if electric) the oven might be seeing an "overload" condition and shutting off.

As long as the new element has the same wattage rating and you performed the receptacle installation correctly, there is no reason why this cannot work. Using the wrong wattage rating element can have impact on the control regulator knob for the element.
