Yale LP truck and the manifold and hoses freeze up when trying to start. Unit won't start at all. Any tips? Could it be the regulator?

If the truck will not start when you first go on it than it is not a flow problem from a blockage that the regulator is not getting flow it is a bad regulator that is blowing to much gas pressure to the carb.if the truck starts and runs for about 5minutes and freezes up l would look for a restriction in the water lines to the regulator hope this helps
