truma regulator

killalanerr

I have been having trouble with the van since i took it out of storage little things that were not giving problems before it was put away,very frustrating
Now the gas has packed up none of the appliances work so now i need a truma bulkhead gas propane butane regulator my question is where i can get one

We replace them usually with GasLow regs . Never a problem with them . It's the oil in the gas is the problem .

what year is your van? and what size is the nut on the end of the metal pipe , where it attachs to the reg? 17 or 19mm?

Thanks again to Aidan_M_M for the advise i replaced the truma reg with a GasLow reg all working again
Just to give you the heads up on this when i started to look into it i found that the truma regs that are fitted to all vans from 04 on are failing because they are been blocked with oil from the the gas,when it gets blocked the only fix is to replace the reg.It might be worth either replacing your reg with a GasLow reg or at least carry a replacement rather than finding yourself in the middle of France or Dundalk in my case with no way of heating the van or cooking the bit of dinner
