On the Bash site at Swaffham and no gas!
Gaslow system, both tanks full and has been working today with no problem.
Now no gas getting through to to cooker/heating.
Anyone got any ideas?

Dodgy regulator?

Are all the valves open?

You or someone that knows what they are doing could turn both valves off on the bottles.
Crack open the outlet pipe from the valve and turn on one of the bottles.

If no gas the reg is kaput.

A member of John”s (Jaws) family is here and very kindly come over to have a look. Both cylinders are empty!!
The gauge on top of No1cyl is showing full but he cracked both tanks after isolating them and nought☹️.
the gas line from the tanks to the changeover valve is suspect, slightly loose and drained the tanks.
Up early o’clock to find gas from wherever, and he will then check the system for me.
He is a gas engineer!! So is very safety conscious.
I will update you tomorrow.
Just broke the news to T, no cup of tea in the morning.
I should be comfy under this hedge😁.

Morrison at east dereham had gas yesterday @80p / litre, but you need the filler on curb side, if your filler is drivers side hieght restriction is 2.5m. Or give T.E.S recovery north tuddenham a call they have a pump, but not sure if open tomorrow.

Glad your getting sorted Geoff.

I’m surprised you didn’t smell the gas’s leaking, if it was.

As for the gauges, cover them up I found mine to be worse than useless.

Let me know how you get on
 
Might be worth looking at these sensors which attach - quick search should bring them up here on the forum - "Mopeka"

Also habitation checks should pick up any gas leaks, etc

Back at Swaffham. System checked through with an electronic snifffer. Cheers Dave, and Therese says thanks twice for Diane’s vital contribution of hot water to the tea bags!😄
Special thanks to Darrell and Shane of clan Jaws for identifying the problem late last night

Come on the spill the beans 🤷‍♂️
 
I can definitely confirm that the garage at Nuns Bridges in Thetford does indeed have a fully working LPG pump. (y) I used it about an hour ago to top up my bottles. 99p a litre too.
