My torch screwed up. No acetylene flow. I traced it to a little unitright at the regulator. Its an anchor brand flash arrestor and checkvalve. The line will thread right back up without it in the system.I'm pretty sure my old torch didn't have one of these. I need to cutsomething today pretty bad, there's no time for maintenance during thework week during apple harvest.I'll set the tanks way back and outside. is there much hazard of aproblem running without this. Please if you don't know, don't give meall the dire warning bullshit. I need to hear from an expert.I'll plan to do this right after the ball game.Karl
