Update on caravan gas regulators.

Hi guys,

I own a Jayco Penguin Outback camper van which is one year old. Within the first month I started to have problems with the regulator and am now on my third.

The current regulator has a copper pig tail fitted, rather than the flexible hose. No problems thus far. Jayco is also going back to pig tails until the problem is identified.

I've spoken to a lot of manufacturers and services agents about this and it appears there are differing opinions within the industry:

1. The regulator
2. Flexible hose
3. Quality of gas

Whilst there is nothing I can do about the regulator, I've attached the pig tail (as mentioned above), purged the tank and will fit the regulator above the gas cylinder next weekend.

If this doesn't work I'll inform you, then commit suicide (providing the pubs are open)

Regards

Kim
