Glad to hear that things are resolved. It sounds like your propane supplier has run into that sort of issue before. Does the 100 # tank not have it's own pressure regulator? Would it be possible to have then put in an oil trap between the 100# tank and your RV? Quote Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

andy hancock Posted September 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 Kirk.......I don't see anything that looks like a pressure regulator on the 100# tank? The supplier still hasn't shown up to exchange the tank out. I agree with you that the supplier's behavior seems to imply that they know of this issue. I'm still running on my on-board 7 gallon tank. The 8 foot black iron distribution pipe has all take-offs to appliances directly off the top......and so, it may act as a low point and drip leg. I did get approx 4 to 5 tablespoons of oil out of this pipe when I blew air though it. And it's not mounted in a level position on the 5th wheel frame so that oil could have collected at a low point. This could explain the strange behavior of the furnace not firing until the sun was on that pipe? That oil may solidify some at low temps? I will ask about a trap or drip leg when they show up. Everything worked perfectly overnight last night which pleased the wife very much. It's so nice when the wife is pleased.
