Is this why my grill isn't getting any propane: The nipple is not connecting - it slides back and forth when the black nut is attached to tank.

No way the nipple should slide back and forth..and that could certainly explain why you are not getting any propane. Try the connector/hose on a different (empty or full) tank and see if it still is that loose.

I believe the tanks are designed so that even with the valve on top open, no propane will flow unless the regulator is securely connected. The black nut/knob should thread smoothly onto the tank and not move.

That must be a defect in your grill. I've not had that problem. It might be cheaper to buy a new one (I got one at BigLots for 28.99) than sending it back.

Prob better to go through your gas first. Sounds like you have a rusty tank tho. It'll def work for your problem

This happened to me and I would try the following:1) If propane, make sure that your gas pressure isn't too high. Mine was (I think) 10psi and EZ tech support told me that it shouldl be 8psi (give them a call; they actually answer the phone and know what they're talking about.2) Make sure that the wiring harnesses haven't come apart during shipping. This involves removing the cover and pulling apart and re-inserting all connectors, one at a time.Good luck !!

Did u open the valve? Check to see if there is gas flow by opening the valve BEFORE you insert it into the grill.

Sounds like a common problem. You will have to measure the original tank and and be aware of the filler cap as to where it is located. Also take note of the screw locations for securing the tank in place. on this tank there are 4 screw locations. 2 on either narrow sides. Hopes this helps.

I will have to send you pictures of my set-up later on this week. Briefly I have three Weber carbs and a fuel distributional block from Mr. Gasket and I placed it upstream of this, but if you have fuel injection the pressure is about two or three times what the gauge will register

shouldn't be missing anything...you need to flip that switch under the cover in the back to NG and get a 3/8" nipple for the inlet on the bottom of the unit. I'm not sure if things can break and cause more unless it's not burning correctly and need some cleaning

I took the propane bits off before I even assembled the grill and connected it to my house's natural gas line. Works perfectly. They want you to buy a "conversion kit" which tells you to remove the bits and connect a hose (which you can get at home depot for a few bucks). YouTube it.

If your grill works with the standard 20# propane tanks you can buy at Lowes or Home Depot (or numerous other places), then it will work with this tank also. If your grill does *not* work with the standard 20# tanks currently for sale, then it also won't work with this tank.Basically, this is just like those standard tanks, only smaller (and therefore holding less propane). The connections are the same. Compatibility is the same. Hope that helps!

Is it possible that you have a regulator on the tank and at the grill? If so remove one. Never alter gas fittings, they are made that way for a reason.

Yes, this seems to be a problem. I'm working with the manufacturer to see what can be done. But at present it really doesn't get hot enough to qualify as a grill.

sounds like propane in the line but not coming from the tank. Tank overflow valve may have sucked up to cut off propane.Disconnect, bounce tank (assuming it is full), to shake valve down, then turn slowly so it doesn't suck up again. Happens on the new regulation tanks with overfill valve.

If you have a regular sized propane tank, such as for a barbeque grill, that's the connector on the tank. This device connects into the tank, and then you connect the barbeque propane supply line onto the other end of this device. Make sense?

I'm going to ask some questions that may insult your intelligence: 1.)Is the attache propane tank full? 2.)Is the propane tank valve fully open? 3.) Is the boost valve on the Hot Max fully open? If all true, you have a defective unit - send it back. Mine worked fine with a full tank, fully opened tank valve and a fully opened boost value.

Look at your water tank. It should have a plug and then the ring around it to screw it closed. Maybe there is something wrong with the gasketing mechanism?

I have same problem then I use same tank for barbecue it is work something must wrong with regulator
