Using the water heater today and heard a buzzing noise from the front right of the dashboard, also a faint vibration. Traced it to the gas bottle regulator, an original Hymer fitted unit.
The gas bottle was nearly out and the vibration from the reg was setting up a vibration in the bottle, a bit like it were a large bell.
Thought it may be an air leak and by tightening the bottle connection a little it stopped only to start up again a few seconds later. Tapped the regulator and it stopped for about 20 seconds and started again.
I thought maybe a perished diaphragm but just guessing now, anyone heard of this?
In preparation for a week at Le Mans next week I'll get a new reg later this week, but would like to know what caused it.
Thanks
