It may be that some of these gas parts, especially the pigtails and the
regulators should be replaced on general principals because of their
age. A split if the diaphragm of the fuel pressure regulator on my last
truck cost me the engine and it was only 14 years old. A leaky LP
regulator could cost the A/S and us if the fire is quick and big.

I think that moves to the top of the Caravel fix list today.
