Hi all.

Before I 86 my Dometic fridge, I need to make sure I set the regulator
on my Marshall 290 propane regulator. (tank and regulator only 1 year
old) I used a home made manometer. I saw a 5.25" rise on one side so
pressure should be 10.5" W.C. But.....

- I've seen conflicting answers on this: is it absolutely necessary to
have a stove burner on (or both?) when testing pressure? If so, why?

- Does the main valve need to be closed, and inlet end of manometer
hose disconnected and cleared of pressure each time an adjustment is
made? Or does hose remain connected, and valve remain open while
diaphram is being adjusted? (i.e. one would see pressure rise or fall
while all connected and diaphram adjusted)

- Though the stove still lit, my LP tank was almost empty at time of
testing. Would this have affected the accuracy of the manometer
reading?

Thanks,

Neil.
