My propane regulator started acting up and figuring out the right replacement part took me a whole weekend, not the 20 minutes I thought.

Was it the fitting size or the pressure rating that gave you the most trouble? I spent a whole afternoon once trying to match the threads on an old grill, only to find out the new one needed a different hose too.

That exact thing happened to me with my water heater last month! It's always the threads, isn't it? You get the right size but the pitch is off by a hair. Your story about the grill, @julia92, shows how this is a universal headache. It feels like companies change standards just to make us buy more parts. I've learned to bring the old part to the store every single time now.
