We bought this stove from a friend of a friend. He had it converted to lp, we need to convert it back to natural gas. Both the top and bottom ovens take about 20 mins to preheat to 350 degrees, and it smells like there is excess gas. The bottom hood orifice is the green lp and the top oven and broiler are the red. Not sure if I have to change those or do something else.

I have the stove top orifices ordered, I am just lost with both of the stoves. Thank you.

You can see the conversion instructions at the following link.

They say:

This product cannot be converted to LP by adjusting the orifice hood. The hood must be replaced for LP.

If any were changed to LP hoods I would assume they'll need to be changed back. I cannot tell you which are the correct ones for NG however those instructions also list:

NG Burner Output Ratings

Lower Bake 16,000 BTU green Color
Upper Bake 12,000 BTU red Color
Broil 10,000 BTU yellow Color

(I seen another conversion instruction that says the 10,000 BTU hood orifice is orange.)

For LP it lists Green, Red, Red so maybe they need to be challenged yet?
