My fingers are faster than my mind!!
sorry about the empty quick post.
My question--
I am thinking about rearranging my A Frame/tongue layout. 
does the propane regulator have to be in a horizontal orientation or can I mount it vertically?
I can't find any references to this question.

here is the regulator as seen from above

I want to mount it vertically on the spare tire mount

Thanks in advance,
Vann

Vann,
If you look close, there should be a small vent hole.  You need to keep it facing so dirt or water doesn't get in it thus preventing the diaphragm from operating.
Have fun and stay safe

+1  Mine is mounted vertically inside a HF box where my batteries are located on the a-frame.  Has worked that way really nice for the past 4 years.
