Propane BBQ issue
Recently purchased a new BBQ and it has a hose that connects to the LP propane outlet on the trailer (no regulator on the BBQ side). The outlet has a quick-connect type fitting with a shut-off valve (like this). This is my first attempt at using this fitting.
When I connect the BBQ to the trailer, I get no (or very, very little) gas flow. Not enough to light the burner. To rule out a defective BBQ, I borrowed a friends adapter hose that connects the BBQ to a 1-pound disposable. With this configuration everything works just fine.
Thinking that the issue has to do with the trailer side, I traced out the gas lines and found that the same line feeds all the LP appliances. There's simply a "T" where the quick-connect hose is attached to the supply line. All the other appliances work fine.
Is it possible the quick-connect fitting is bad or is there other things I should try?
