Help.. I just had the propane tank filled and after checking for leaks woth soapy water I found that gas was leaking from the center of the pressure regulator, out a tiny square hole in the face of it. Er.. is this 'normal' operation? It would normally be under the plastic cover. It says on the regulator 'for outdoor use', and the leak is sooo small that it blows bubbles slowly. But! has anyone else ever noticed this, or smelled a tiny whiff of propane near the regulator. It happens when the valve is opened, and for a while after I close it, until pressure in the lines up to the stove drops off. The system hasn't had propane in it for XX years I believe, if ever. TIA tim smith
