17 KW Kohler will start and idle but will not step up to proper RPM to run the generator. Is it common for NO gas (Propane) pressure to pass through the regulator when the engine is trying to start. Or does the engine draw the propane that is needed. (There is no-flow through the regulator) Serviceman changed the main circuit board in the unit, and it still would not start and run. Speed sensor checks ok, Throttle Step checks ok.

SOURCE: I have a new Kohler 12kw res generator on propane - backfiring

Is the outside air temp cold. These generators will backfire if it is real cold and if the propane pressure is low. It is suppose to be 11 to 12 inches of water colume at the generator fuel input. drygwals

I have a Kohler 12 RES home standby generator. Once in a while when the power goes out the generator will start and then immediately shut down with no fault codes. When I flip the control in the unit
Check the inlet fuel pressure, on exervise there is no load, when power is out it is loaded and demands more fuel. Also check for bugs blocking gas regulators vents etc
