Replaced our one year old ACME nuts also, they were dry and cracked but not yet leaking. Weeks? later, as we were getting ready to take er out for a week, the factory regulator quit delivering propane. I tried everything i could think
of and the bigger hammer routine worked. The regulator failed the first night out, just before the snow came. Good thing i went to the parts store and bought a spare, American made regulator, got hosed a bit but it works and survived the temps for the next week that got down to -1. Now a regulator is always in my spare parts bin when we go.
