Flow
Limiting
Valves
on LP Gas Tanks
Check
all connections
for LP Gas Leaks
Your
LP gas
tank
is equipped
with
a flow
limiting
valve
that
will
restrict
the
flow
of gas
due to a
sudden
change
in pressure.
This
can
often
activate
without
your
knowledge.
You
will
notice
among
other
things
that
your
grill
does
not get
as hot
as it should,
will
take
longer
to heat
up,
or you
may
not be able
to
light
all burners.
If you
notice
any
of the
above,
then
you
should
reset
the
valve
and
clear
your
gas
line.

This
flow

valve
is triggered
by sudden
changes
in pressure.
This
can
be caused
by a leak,
faulty
connection
of the
regulator
to the
LP gas tank,
turning
on the
LP gas tank
valve
