I bet I’ve been sold a empty bottle

What's the ambient temp like where you are?

Butane (blue bottle) struggles to gasify at low temps.

It’s about 3 degrees c

Where’s my chainsaw, sodding thing lol!!!

Better running propane in cold weather

Ok thanks I will . Cheers and thank you.
I have just had to stand 20 mins to get into a supermarket to get my weekly grocery’s in

You will need a regulator for propane as well as a propane bottle. I think from your picture it is a bottle mounted regulator, If it has a 30mbar bulkhead mounted regulator then you will just need to swap the pigtail (short pipe from bottle to regulator) for a propane one as the nut at bottle end is different. Hang on to butane if you have space until warmer weather

Thabks mate . It’s going ok now for some reason. I give up guessing. Just doing my €50 a week shop. Pics to follow.

I think it’s been due the temps

“I listened to the song on the radio it takes two when it only use to take one”. Didn’t listen to it all
As I miss my folks so much. It’s been a trying month

Low gas?

Given that the other end of the scale is red, I'd be tempted to interpret it as yellow = full and red = low. Must say it's a bit silly to colour it like that and not provide any figures at all on the gauge.

Take the bottle of and leave the regulator attached to bottle take a few feet away from your van and turn on at bottle to see if there’s pressure and if the gauge moves in other direction.

Yes, that's what I'd expect - green, yellow, red - not yellow, green, red.

That was my initial thinking.
However ... the rest stop is on the yellow and not the red end.
So on THAT reasoning, I think Yellow is low, Green is good and Red is danger (for over 80% full)
