no pressure out of regulator was created by Munchers60
I have a emglo model# AM39-HC4V that I just replaced the regulator on. Tank pressure builds to 120psi. but 0 at the regulator. What's up?

Thanks for the post!
I know it may seem obvious, but did you install the regulator so that the arrow showing the outlet air direction is actually going to your hose?
There should be a small arrow showing the direction of air flow from the inlet to the outlet; must make sure you didn't reverse it so that the arrow points towards the inlet.
If you installed it with the arrow pointing towards the coupler/hose, then the regulator must be defective. If you get no pressure to the hose no matter how far clockwise you turn the knob, the diaphragm inside is probably stuck.
