Hello everyone!

I need some help. I've had my HH for a couple of years and have not had any problems with it. I exchanged my empty new 8 LBS tank of HPG for a new tank yesterday, attached it this morning. When I open the tank I heard the whoosh of the gas going into the hose and saw the hose stiffen. When I lit the torch, all I got was a huge "dragon" flame not the concentrated blue flame that is straight. When I turn the HH off, the flame looked more like what it should, but it was turned off and it took a couple of seconds for the flame to go out. I don't see any gunk in it. But I did see a drop of the HPG on the bottom side of the HH.

Do I need a new HH? Or could it be the HPG? What should I do?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks :)
Tracey

IF HH was working fine, and all you did was change tanks... I would suspect something with the "new" tank of fuel...
