If it's a direct spark ignition type heater maybe that's how it's designed to.work .When called for heat pilot open allowing gas then ignitor spark and ignite the pilot then gas valve open and allow gas through burner then unit fires off .

u need a 100 lb tank minimum for the heater to operate properly

this happens yearly..usually it is the thermos couple needs cleaning..this year the pilot orfice itself was dirty and throwing a weak orange flame that was not even touching the thermo couple..I just gave the orfice a good cleaning and now the flame reached out as a long BLUE flame touching the thermo couple and it stayed lit on the first try

Ive personally never seen a stainless steel tank on a factory vehicle .. i cheap fix is to take a couple old stereo speakers and take the magnets from the back of them , stick them to the bottom of the tank away from the pickup . it will hold the rust particles to that one area and will lesten the chance of them getting through the system . Another cheap yet more time consuming fix is to by Red Kote gas tank liner from your local part store . Drop the tank and clean and coat it .... Otherwise , buy a new tank....

its not burrning all the gas , clean with compresed air when gas is shut off making sure all the burnner gas holes are clear test outside if problem pursists i would refrain from using it until tested by qualified service person

How long has the unit been running for? sometimes with these newer heating elements it takes a while to burn off the oils used to make them.

Did you bleed the air from the pump .
