Subject:Propane Leak

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.
Thanks folks,
