Subject:      Propane regulator success

Once again, thanks to all who reponded to my propane regulator problem. We went to Hawley's RV in Garner NC and they provided a Marshall Brass regulator Model 290 for $17.99.

I installed it shortly thereafter, and found the pressure dead-on at 11". Fired up the burners to see a much larger flame than before. Fridge cooled to -18 degrees in 20 minutes even though it was 99 degrees out. (Okay, THAT'S not true), it did subjectively cool down in a hurry.

Thanks again to all. FYI-if you haven't checked your LP pressure, DO IT!!! Should be 11". Ours must have been low, as the burner flame really was noticeably higher, and the fridge really did cool faster.

Cheers.
