Gaslow refilling problem (1 Viewer)

[Lissimore27]

My two year old Gaslow 2x11 cylinder system with auto change valve has been fine but suddenly it won’t accept any new gas other than an initial half a litre then it leaks out of the filling noselle - one tank is almost full and the other completely empty - I’m currently in France and the adapter fits and Ive used it many times before- any ideas ?

Similar thing happened to me. The cylinder wouldnt accept any gas, turned out the float had dropped off the level control arm and in unbalancing raised up and then decided the cylinder was full.
Give the cylinder a shake and see if it rattles. Probably means a new cylinder.
A thought just comes to me that it might be a stuck non return valve?

PS Have you emailed Gaslow?

Are you using a screw-in adaptor? If so ensure that the French claw clamp is positioned so that the weight of the nozzle helps tighten the adaptor. If its the other way round the weight of the nozzle can loosen the adaptor allowing gas to escape.
Experience talking!

Our cylinder once indicated empty after a fill, I tapped the gauge and it sprung up to "Full". So they do get stuck sometimes.
