Hi, now that the nice weather is here we have the cruiser up and thought we would check out the gas, it came with a campinggaz 907cylinder and has the hose to connect this to the regulator but can't get any gas through to the hob. Was wondering if this type of cylinder was too small and maybe does not have the pressure required. Have also got a a 4.5 calor (blue) cylinder lying around but the valve is a left hand thread and I don't appear to have anything to connect that to the regulator.
Should the 907 be man enough to feed the fridge and stove?
And what would I need to connect the 4.5 calor bottle ?

there are gas taps in the locker make sure they are turned on and to fit a calor bottle you need the right pipe this video will help

Hi

As above we use 4.5kg blue calor gas bottles.
We have a pathfinder and I assume the gas layout will be the same, you will need a hose to connect to the regulator in the locker, and then there is yellow and green taps in the locker these need to be turned so the handle is in line with the pipe to as this should be on position. The under the sink there is also gas taps again and these need turning on, and obviously turn the gas on at the bottle too😜

Hope this is of help and looking forward to a sunny spring, summer and autumn enjoy

Thanks everyone, went to the camping shop and bought a new hose to connect the calor bottle and all working now so think it was due to the pressure not being enough when trying to use the 907 cylinder. Unsure why the folks we bought the Cruiser from had the smaller 907 cylinder and the correct hose to connect it to the regulator but there you go. We are all working now by the looks of it. Easter can't come soon enough!! Off to the New Forest yay
