Had a new regulator installed on my motorhome in July (2 months ago). Now, when using the stove, for example, the flame on one burner starts out ok but within 20-30 seconds it dies down to nearly not...

I had it replaced as it was 13 years old. Nothing else was replaced other than new pieces of pipe and fittings.
BTW, what do you mean by "pig tail"?
Well, folks missed the part about this being on a motorhome.
No pigtail hose used like on a cylinder. MH Tank should be hard-piped or main hose with pipe fitting after regulator.
Could be:
Regulator is not opening to meet demand (leaky diaphragm) or it was not properly set at factory
Should be set to supply enough propane flow for 100% propane demand at 11" WC (0.4 psi)
OR service valve issue.
Was one of the fittings replaced the one that screws into/onto service valve?
