Re: LPG BREAKDWON HELP
I would turn the isolate valve off at the tank , that will stop the leak , then switch it over to petrol and try getting it running on petrol

The round thing is the gas tight box cover, you should see a knurled round control (usually brass) in there if its like mine. Rotate it clockwise untill you can no longer turn it to shut the gas off. If you switch to petrol you shouldn't hear gas leaking anyway as all the gas valves will be closed.
