danonthemoon Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Hey guys. So I just filled up my propane tank, and hooked up the regulator and no pressure. I tried to open it very slowly since it hasn't been used in awhile, but no luck. Right when I open the valve, I hear a little gas come out but then nothing, so I'm thinking maybe a bad regulator? Any advice is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah-Clay Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Make sure everything is turned off before you open the valve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maineah Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I have seen some older propane fittings that are too short to push the tank valve open. The newer tanks have a valve to shut off the flow if there is no fitting in the opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 It's pretty common for the oils used to stink up propane to clog regulators and propane lines. You probably need a new regulator Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
