Tried that...and discovered that a filled tank with no regulator hooked up has nothing happen with valve open. So, my first diagnosis was right...but for the wrong reason.
Anyway, opening the valve slowly was part of the instructions I followed last night...no results. The malfunction must be rare...sure never happened before.
