Two possible issues.. The procedure above will not fix either
1; OIL can get into the mix and into the regulator causing a malfunction
2: Not a HIGH pressur valve (There is no such valve in a regulator)but a HIGH FLOW valve (in the tank)
Turn off (Tank,main valve) ,have a cup of coffe or two (Brewed electrically.
Now turn re-open valve.. if you hear gas flow STOP.. wait,,,like 2 minuts..Open it a bit more.. Continue this process till it is FULLY open.
Then try it.
Sometims if the pressur in the lines goes to zero if you open the tank valve quickly it can trip the excess flow valve.
The RESET procedure described above included bleeding the lines of pressure and all but INSURES the excss flow will set.
