I am 100% sure the dryer was converted from Natural Gas to LP when we bought it. What could be causing this to happen? What fixes could anyone advise me to do? Best way to get the black color out of the drum? New to Forum-Thanks for your time and advice. James clevenhagenjs attached the following image(s):
