Thank you so much for your video. I was in the mountains and my propane stopped working and therefore I couldn’t use my fridge or stove or furnace. Once I released the pressure, it worked again!! I’m so grateful!! Thanks again!!
Your description helped the most, but I have to say that releasing pressure did not solve the problems for 2 tanks that were overfilled. I did solve the problem overnight by laying one of the tanks on its side. Now I am following up next day by laying the other on its side. If this proves out, that is better, at least in some cases, than releasing so much propane.
That is not a pressure relief valve. That is actually connected to a dip tube known as a spitter. It is used in filling tanks. When the tank is roughly 80 percent full propane liquid will come out an opening 90 degrees in front of the screw.
I will probably forget to get back to ya but hopefully this works, I tried different things but not the little valve thing. thanks to you and two other content creators whom gave this advise .. just tree guy looking to make a home repair ..
This didnt work for me so heres what did; I attached the regulator and opened the tanks valve. Then, with the valve still open, unscrewed the regulator until i heard a hiss. Screwed the regular back on and off a few times and then i had gas going to the grill.
My blue rhino tank valve will not turn. You can wiggle it a tiny bit to the left and right, but that's it. I released the pressure like in your video, but the valve still won't turn on. Any suggestions? Does that mean it's empty?
