VEry helpful, had to adjust mine to at least 9-10 in WC to properly supply my 18kw generator and not starve it when all gas appliances are running at the same time👍

Is there a special tool to adjust the 143 model with the manual reset plunger?

[@hollandsupplycompany]

Hi there! Our team has made their own tool for this model. They used 1/2" stainless steel tubing to create a hexagonal shape to fit. But our warehouse supervisor said you could use a flathead screwdriver in the horizontal slits on the adjustment button.

Can I run it without the yellow spring on the end of the reset plunger rod? I didn’t know the orientation and it was too hard to line up. I just put the rod back in without the little yellow spring. I’m not talking about the main spring.

Our warehouse supervisor (who is in this video) said it sounds like you have a low pressure cut-off situation, and it won't work the way it is supposed to if you do that.

It's 20° out and are natural gas stopped flowing. Gas is getting to the, cuz I checked the bleed valve. Seems like the regulator went bad. Maybe need a new one? It's natural gas and it's outside. We do have to pour dryer into that tank out there sometimes. I don't have a pressure tester so I don't want to adjust the plunger bolt. I'm kind of at a loss right now and there ain't no one to really call or have come fix it. I'm going to have to do it myself. I will check on the radiator to see what model it is.

Sorry to hear about your troubles with your regulator! You can contact our sales team ([e-mail]) and they can provide better guidance on what to do next. You may also need to contact your natural gas utility if you are replacing any equipment on your home.

@@hollandsupplycompany it's made by Fisher controls and I'm going back at her right now outside. Got another 4 inches of snow last night. Going to go pour some ethanol into the tank momentarily. I hope I put the regular later back together properly lol. I wish there was a diagram somewhere for it.

@@Davewutsup Got it, unfortunately we don't sell or have experience with that brand. I think they have a KZbin channel, so maybe they have videos to help or you can visit their website to try to find a rep that can help. Stay warm & safe!
