Propane manifold

Hello i tring to figure out why my hot water heater is not.running.on gas I've taken everything apart one at.a time I've checked the gas valve.both solenoid on the gas valves and the thermostats a/c & D/C side and all are working then i pulled off the line that goes directly to the valve.and I'm not.getting gas through the feed line to the valve that opens I've chased the hose to a manifold block which my stove works all burners and my furnace works the L.P tank is full I've tied with a half full tank 30 lb and I just filled a 100 lb tank nothing both tanks will run the stove and furnace but I have no flow through.the line to the solenoid valve my spark ignition is working and i can hear the valve click on and off it will do it.3xs and i have to reset it.but it's not.going to fire if it cant.get gas through the supplyline can this be a bad manifold?? Cause everything else.is working but the line going to my H.W.H the manifold has a direction arrow but the arrow is pointing towords the tank and not in the down hill or lower pressure side could this be the problem I've never had any trouble with it not working since ive.owned.the 5th wheel which is by the way a.2021 Montana Bighorn 3300 DL any help with this would be appreciated I'm sure I'm not the only person that this has happened to i appreciated your time and experience if you know what the problem is ?

The hose that has the red tag has no gas going through it

I'd shut the tanks off, disconnect the line at the manifold and furnace, then try blowing out the hose. If the hose is clear, then have someone open a tank valve real slow while you listen & smell for gas coming out of the manifold. If nothing it's the manifold.

I have heard on this forum of oil that is sometimes present in supplied propane can solidify in the lines/fittings and make a plug.

Yeah that's my next plan of attack but my gawd the hose going into the manifold is pretty.near impossible to get off im going now to purchase a heat gun and see if that works but yeah I hope I don't have to buy more stuff to fix this and I have ran a tig wire down the hose but it was still attached to the manifold and felt free so we will find out but the direction arrow on the manifold seems to be facing the wrong direction shouldn't it more or less go with the flow?

Hey just to follow up nothing wrong with the equipment etc I guess I was a victim of the oil crisis so to speak be picky where ya get ya propane make sure the pump,looks good etc cause that's the only way I see you getting it into your tank and them system so if ya look on ya routing of your lp line along.the frame should have a manifold with a plug in it I took that said plug out and took the l.p feed off my H.W.H valve and blowed compressed air through it till 90% of the oil came.out the plug im sure it's not over I'll do it again in a couple of days to see how much more comes out not sure what tank has it in it I ran the furnace pretty hard last winter 100lbs of propane in 1.5 weeks and I was at it (working) for at least 5 months so I hope this helps someone else out and it was almost 2/3 a cup of oil in it WOW!!

See this thread, post #6. Sorry the link from the Propane Council no longer seems to work.
