Subject:      Leaking Propane Regulator??

Hi All, My recently purchased 82 Diesel Westy has a hissing leak on what I assume is the propane regulator. It's the unit that's on the propane tank before the lines split and head up into the body of the van. It has a plastic cover and about the size of a 110 volt electric box. On the right side of the unit there is a round cylinder like protrusion that sticks out about an inch. To the left of it is a small hole and this is where the leak is. It leaks constantly anytime the valve to the right of this unit is open. Any help on what's wrong and what the fix would be will be great. Also the stove and frig seen to work OK even with the leak and I have not filled the tank so what's in there is what it came with. Thanks, Michael Avrea
