Combo Grill Propane Side issues

[Baygolf]

Enjoying my new combo, Pit boss pellet grill. Having issues with leakage from the propane hose coupling to the tank, have changed the tank out twice however, still leaking. around the coupling was able to seed it one time and do the burn off on the new grill. Have checked the hose and there are no kinks or an apparent blockage. I’m wondering if it’s a regulator issue. Also igniter does not work. Suggestions?

Check your connection on the igniter
If it’s good the do a ohms test on it
Change the regulator
They do fail.
Mix water with dishwashing liquid and spray all the the connections on the hose and regulator
Hopefully this helps you

Thank you so much for the quick response clean the connection with a lint free cloth which helps seat the connection into the propane tank. It worked as for the igniter on meter does not register so I must have a faulty igniter. Manual lights OK. Thanks again.

FYI,
I have the PB1100PS2 combo unit as well, propane side works great. Just know that that side gets really hot, you will only need to use 1 or 2 on low of the 3 burners available. I do a lot of radiant cooking, with a inkbird wireless meat temperature probe. Get some nice char marks then, move over a unignited burner. Try changing (turning screen) the air intake sleeve setting on the gas inlet pipe to the burners, that may change temperature of the flames too ?

Teflon tape is the way to go for sealing gas or water connections. There are other thread sealers but Teflon tape is the easiest and best. It is actually less expensive and won't dry out or go bad.

There is a special Teflon tape to use for propane or natural gas.

I've never heard of this...what makes it so specific for these gasses?
