Subject:Propane regulator replacement on ASI conversion
From:Ellen in Oregon
Date:Sun, 27 May 2007 11:16:15 -0700

Nice long weekend, so decided to take a crack at the leaky propane regulator
on Lola.  The old regulator is mounted in a box held on by four sheetmetal
screws that was easy to remove from the van.  I can see that the new
regulator is at least an inch longer than the old one (which I expected,
after reading the archives).  So obviously the new regulator is not going to
fit in that box.  I sort of anticipated this and ordered the new regulator
that can be installed with the vent pointing down, which wouldn't require
the box.  So now I am trying to figure out a way to mount the new regulator
(how to support it).  The lines going in and out are flexible (rubber?).
Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,
