First off, it may not be the regulator at all. Are you forgetting that the safety valve built into today's new tanks outlet will clamp down if the hose is empty to protect everything in the event that there is a break in the line? If several things such as the water heater and oven are running and then a big draw on the propane system happens, the sensor could presume that a line rupture has happened. Once equilibrium is established, the tank will continue to provide propane. Try opening the valve on a new tank that is full and not connected to anything and see if you can blow propane.
Second, propane regulators have funny quirks. Some of these you just have to live with. Sometimes tank A will work but tank B will not. An hour later, they both work just fine. (And sometimes, someone forgot to open the valve on tank B.)
