I cannot get a flame going on my grill - it has slowly stopped - I've taken everything out and cleaned to the nth degree - replaced the grill regulator; replaced the gas tank regulator, etc. The dial never moves beyond smoke

Here's the problem and the solution. The new regulator you just installed, locked up when you turned ON new tank. This oocurs quite frequently with the fairly new OPD equipped grill tanks.

Solution:

1. Turn the gas tank's valve OFF and disconnect the hose from the tank.

2. Wait 5 minutes and reconnect the hose to the tank.

3. Open the tank valve VERY, VERY, SLOWLY (slow motion, slow),

4. Once the valve is fully open, light the burner farthest from the tank first and turn it to HIGH.
Did the burner light and does the flame height look correct? If so, light the remaining burners
the same way. Now, do all the flame heights look correct? If so, you solved the problem (with
a little help). Remember to ALWAYS open the tank valve very, very, slowly.

Happy Grilling!!
