There are NO CHANGES needed to the pressure regulator. The Propex models
sold in the US market are jetted correctly for the US regulators. If you
have changed the adjustment, please set it back to 11" WC. Then there won't
be any complaints when it doesn't fire reliably at altitude. :-) Please tell
me who advised to change the pressure, so I can re-educate them.

figured rather than monkey with regulators and hoses everywhere - install a
second propane tank! So, a suitable donor was found for cheap (missing the
gauge/fill protector guard though) locally and bolted to the studs already
in place on the passenger side under the door for the rear two mounts. The
front two needed to have the flooring lifted up but there were already marks
under the van as to where to drill for the studs. hardest part was tracking
down a 1/4" copper hose to the propane regulator on the tank as I removed
the existing splitter. Neither ACE nor Lowes had the fitting so I had to go
to a propane outfitter in the city.
