I had this same problem on my '82 =
Westy. I
was able to obtain a replacement from a local RV accessory place. =
The
replacement that I fornd does not match up exactly. I had to do a =
little
modification to the copper line and "adjust" the debris guard =
that is
on the bottom. It looks ok and works great. I replaced mine =
about 3
years ago and the cost, if I remember right, was around $70.00 or
so.

1982 Westy (on the road to recovery)
There is/was a small stream of =
propane leaking
from a small square hole on
the propane pressure regulator on our 82 =
westy
the last time I had the
propane tank filled. This being the first =
time we
have had the tank filled
since we bought the van and not knowing =
whether this
was simply overfill or
a problem, we bled the tank in the name of =
safety.
Looking through the
archives it appears as if this is an indication =
of a
faulty pressure
regulator. The archives from 94-95 discuss a problem =
getting
a replacement
however there was some recent discussion concerning =
this
problem for which
I could not find a conclusion. Any and all advice =
about the
best way to
solve this problem is greatly appreciated.
