My little guy ain't got no gas flow.

Generally when you put in a new tank you can hear a little his and the tank makes a small sound too. I am not getting any of that. Also no gas flow down the line from that.

Has anyone ever delt with this? I don't think it's the O2 cut off, I think it's right at the nozzle. It does let out a little gas when pushing it on and off but not when being screwed in.
I have tried two different new, full tanks.

Lost my fucking multi tool. Fuuuck. Can't pull the bitch apart without breaking out my tools.

Ok, got it working. I took off the little panel that feeds the O2 cut off into the gas line. It hissed and when I put it back together it ran fine. If anything it's running better than new.

What exactly was the problem? I haven't messed with a lot of these types of things.

Idk. I left a tank hooked up over the summer. I assume back pressure on the regulator, but that should have been able to bleed off when I pressed the start up button. I think some kind of way it was keeping the emergency cut off valve shut while also keeping the line above pressurized.
I really don't know but if someone else has the same problem of no gas flow at all it was a 1min fix.

Ok. Fuck me sideways.
Left it hooked up over night and had to repeat the repair.
Maybe I just have to disconnect the tank, but that's isn't solving the problem.

Also almost blew myself up twice trying to fix grandad's old propane torch. I got too confident in my abilities.

thermal expansion. the gas got hot and expanded and built enough pressure to keep valve from opening. ive seen it a thousand times

Interesting.
Thanks.
Only reason I'm not sure that is the cause is because it didn't do it at all last year in the same conditions.
I'm still buying a second one, these little things are awesome.
