bought the house this year
has LP
stove is frigidaire es340
only used oven to heat pizza etc
first time cooking a roast or baking
oven ran for 40  minutes and then went pop. found the pop is the gas in the venturi lighting up this causes the main burner to burn orange then go out.
after a few minutes burner restarts and burns for around 5 minutes and then the pop and flame out

Out of propane. Or the tank anti explode valve snapped shut. Or too cold to use propane well, -30 f.

propane should burn blue with orange tips

sure the stove was converted properly?

they all come from the factory set to natural gas

ETA:  where the fuck are you getting 75lbs?  your appliances should be getting ounces, 12" of water column worth
