LP PRESSURE ?

Recently noticed the high output burner on my stove is a tad loud and there is a section of openings that do not light on the burner. This moves if I gently blow on them. Also oven pilot has phases where it kinda burps. I replaced my LP pressure regulator five years ago. Could this be a pressure problem? How would I check the regulated pressure? What should it be?
  • All other LP items work fine. The stove is almost new. Bought in May. I may try to make a measuring tool. Are regulators adjustable? I did not realize my range had its own regulator. Thanks

    RV LP Stoves/ranges have their OWN LP regulator that drops the operating pressure from 11.5 to 10 inches. Odds are the burner/orifice/pilot is dirty after 17 years. Doug


    ^^ Correct. If you use a manometer to measure the pressure at the stove, your stove may have a mini-regulator (as does my 2011 TT). If so, you need to measure the propane pressure at the stove before the mini-regulator. It's in the top of the stove prior to the burners.
