My son got a new 100lb tank of propane, new tank, filled up ready to go. He put it in his enclosed tool trailer, lit the new heater he installed and all was fine. After a few days the heater wouldn't work. He took the heater out, took it to his warm shop, hooked it to a barbecue tank he had in the shop and the heater worked fine. Put it back in the trailer, bled the line and it wouldn't stay lit. It would light up as long as he held a torch flame to the burner but as soon as he took the torch away the flame went out. Finally out of desperation he put another full 100lb propane tank in there and the heater worked like a champ.
Can the gas be bad? Can there be an ice buildup inside the tank at the outlet reducing the outflow? After he unhooked the bad tank he opened up the valve and gas shot out with a loud hiss so there is some pressure in the tank. The ambient temperature here has been from +40f to -22f but temp didn't seem to make a difference. It didn't work at +40f either.
