Your guess is as good as mine.
My propane BBQ wasnt lighting so figured the tank was low. Took the tank to get filled this morning and it was 1/2 full. Now it lights. Any ideas why it doesnt work when the tank gets a little low.

Could you have the wrong type of tank? Some tanks are for horizontal use and some are for vertical use............
Don't the new tanks have some kinda of safety device that won't let it flow if it detects a leak.
I am using the tank that came with the BBQ. Someone mentioned that the regulator might be bad but not sure how to test that.
ever think about rejetting it and going with natural gas?
Have thought about that but like the portability of it since take to the river sometimes.
I suggest pouring in 2 gallons of 87 octane (non-lead), wait a few minutes, and then light.

I've heard that 91 octane mixes better with the propane...........
Could be that the valve has seized. I had this problem on a tank I had not used in a while (living in the sticks, I fill 3 at a time). I opened the relief screw and had gas, then I used a screwdriver to push on the safety valve were the hose connects. If both of those are unobstructed then I would look at the reg. Hope this helps,
