[AT] Small engine--conversion from propane to gas??

[Lew Best]

Hey John
 
I changed a 4cyl continental from gas to propane (on a forklift I seldom
use); just took off the carb & put on the propane stuff.  Works fine
except that if I leave it sit for a while it's a real pain to get the
propane flowing again.  I'm switching it back to gas tomorrow.
 
In short; no reason I see you couldn't convert it with just a carb (and
may need an electric fuel pump if tank is lower than carb)?

Is it possible to convert a single cylinder Wisconsin originally set 
up to run on propane to gasoline operation?  Would I just have to 
change to a Wisconsin gasoline carburetor?       John
