The usual cause of a leaking LP regulator is just one thing----Liquid LP gets into the regulator.
1. Overfilling the LP tank even tho it has a Auto cut off and running down the road with the tank completely full with the valve open will allow the Liquid LP to slosh into the pick up tube.
2. Depending on the tank, the pick up tube may be welded on in the wrong place and will allow Liquid LP to get to the regulator. There some Manchester ASME tanks that have this problem. Tiffin had a few and the tanks had to be replaced. After 3 regulators, the odds are you have a defective LP tank. Doug
