[TheForge] GAS FORGE QUESTION

[Gladish Family]

Thanks.
Your first suggestion gave me the clue I needed.
The tank feeds the shop and the house, and I think the pressure drops when
the appliances in the house are running and then the feed tube heats up, and
starts burning wrong.
Or that's my present theory...
