Troubleshooting RV Stove Top Flame Flicker
Question:
I have an MB Sturgis supply line Type 1 with back ck . I have 3 bottles that my gauge says has gas, but when attached to my RV the stove top lights then withers and goes out. Turn it off and does the same for 30 seconds. Do I need a new supply line? Thanks

Thank you for including the picture. You're on the right path as this is often a sign of a leaking hose, a bad regulator, or your stove has an issue. I would start by replacing your supply line with the MB Sturgis Propane Hose Assembly - RV # 100473-12 as a low cost start to troubleshooting.
