you must have missed one of my posts - there was only two parts - the lp connector from the LP source and the elbow (that should have contained the orifice and not just an elbow that was provided to us by an RV place in Toronto)
Did I mention that Peter's new name was Peter the flame thrower. He lit that pilot and flipped the switch and it created a blow torch - good thing he is left handed so he stood on the right
We have replaced pretty much all the LP lines now -with one more to go to the fridge. We have a brand new main regulator with the rubber hoses (are they specially lined inside or something???) cause they seem to be pretty exposed to the sun and could wear a lot faster than the flex metal hose???? used by gas companies.

Our boat has no conveniences except a porta pottie (pump out style) so boiling water for dishes and bird baths is a way of life for us - unless of course we hit a marina with hot showers - hmmmmm do we ever savor them when we get them

Great place for questions and getting answers but guys will be guys and just have to learn for themselves - most do survive their trials a tribulations
