Wow, so would you need a small expansion tank to dampen that out? IS
that even allowed on LPG? What was the cure?

Alot of these generator setups need 2 regulators, so usually the
regular one stays at the tank, size the pipe for the flow rate ( just
like wire and amps....;-) .) and put the 2nd regulator right at the
generator.

Ditto Tom, seen this too often in Mexico. I carry a manometer to
make check the pressure at the LP input to the generator with the
engine running. Make sure it is at/above 11" WC when it starts to
act up. If the regulator is at the tank, long vapor runs can cause
too much pressure loss.

Hi Guys
We have had "icing" problems here in Central America as well where
the gas company put in ½' pipe to a 12K Gillette Generator, same
description the gen would initially start and run fine but then it
went erratic the Radian didn't like it, the customer wanted to
blame the Radian (I was sure it wasn't)
The installer/dealer couldn't figure it out. I went out and
immediately saw the small pipe, plus they had bent a crimp into
the incoming fuel line as well. ¾" line fixed the whole thing. LP
has a lot of moisture and will always have delivery problems with
funky installation of pipe. Seems that a lot of gas guys just hook
up kitchen ranges (Here)
Kind regards
