I cant believe what a pain changing this thing to LP was. I had to gut it like a fish. There is no lower panel or side door to get to the valve. The bottom bends up to catch the blower housing and the outlet duct, so you cant get through that. Its back bezel off control panel off top off front off, let the drum drop, pull off the side and un hook the belt lift out the drum, then you can get to the valve. Its rather quick from there. take the venturi tube out and insert the new shutter, change the jet, put back in the venturi tube, put in the regulator blocker and then put the whole machine back together. Man at the blue flames way more heat then the old maytag. Though you have to look at them through a tiny peep hole, unlike the Maytag which has a nice door right behind the valve. They need to fix this access problem, service guys are going to be whining. But on the other hand I didn't have to take the valve out not even unhook the gas line.
