Hopefully I have this in the correct section. I apologize if I missed it. I'm in the process of building a Brutus 10 kinda-clone. I have a propane bottle hooked up to the gas beam via a low pressure regulator. I turned on the bottle and charged the beam then I lit 1 burner. I get this gas surge about every other second the whole time. The regulator blows off then stops and the flame gets a little bigger then repeats. I can't smell any gas from the regulator but I can feel air flow coming out with my hand. If I plug the relief valve with my finger it slows down the surge but it still happens. Do you think I have a bad regulator or do I need a POL fitting instead of a QCC nut or am I off base all together? Thanks for your help in advance, Mike
