We have a Coleman Roadtrip LXE portable grill that we use when camping that uses 1 lb. bottles. I bought a remote hose kit for it & a quick disconnect coupler from Camping World. I am going to tee into the existing gas line. My question is this: do you tee into the gas line before or after the regulator on the camper?

you'd have to do it before the regulator since your grill has it's own regulator on it.

do you have a G model?

Thats what I thought. But didn't know for sure. We have a '14 178.

there is a good mod video on youtube for modifying the coleman grills to remove their regulator that way you could put the connection wherever you wanted.

not sure if you're interested in going that far with it but i'll dig it up if you are.

Travis, I figured out my routing & have it roughed in. I just need to seal everything up & final tighten everything. It should be pretty nice when finished.
Thanks for the offer though. If this doesn't work out, I'll be hitting you up for that info.
Thanks again!
