Typical 2 stage LP Regulator has a 160,000btu flow rating
The GREEN ACME nut on pigtail hoses have a 200,000btu flow rating
LP Regulator should be preset for 11" WC (roughly 0.4 psi)
IF pressure to high then furnace COULD overfire/overheat
BUT same problem would be with water heater, fridge and stove top burners.
Airflow........Obstructions (Usual cause)
