Two years ago I started having troubles with my propane hot water heater. It would fire up, run for 5 minutes or so and the fire would go out. Sometimes restart, sometimes not. I posted the question here and got lots of advise, but due to other more important stuff never go to do anything about it. I finally ran the tank almost dry this past summer dealing with constant no fire issues. Filled with 12gal this last October. Had troubles relighting frig, and hot water heater, but when I finally got them lit, I have not had a single problem with them since. Frig works and hot water heater lites and heats without incident. Has anyone heard of getting a bad load of propane? It was just that one fill that gave me problems. So, if you wait long enough things self heal?

We hear often of GMC'rs getting a bad load of gas (I did once) and having to run it out.....but Propane?
