Jiffy Original Pro 4.... First generation I guess

[CrappieNut]

I bought the pro 4 right when it came out, the next year i remember seeing that they had issues with the regulator or hose. I looked back about 10 pages in this forum and couldn't find anything about it. I also googled it and no luck. Well now mine is leaking propane and is dead in the water till i get it fixed. here is a picture of where it's leaking. Any help is appreciated.

Had the same problem with my generation 2. Except mine was leaking at 3 fittings, so splurged at ordered a whole new fuel delivery system.

You can get a replacement hose for your problem. Saw one at Scheels today for $20, but I'm sure you can order one from the Jiffy site as well. I believe you get the hose with the connection to the propane bottle up to where it connects to the regulator.

I would call Jiffy. I think they came out with a hard pipe replacement for the hoses.

I am having the same issue with mine. I believe it's a gen 2 that's 2 years old but only been out 3 times now. Took it out last weekend for the first time this year and the hose was stiff and the fittings leaked. I contacted jiffy and they said it needed to go to a service center to be repaired. I called the service center and they would have to order the part anyway. I've tried finding the hose around town but everywhere is sold out. That's definitely going to put a damper on the nice weekend coming up. I'm really kicking myself for going with the propane and not an Ion. This auger was my first experience with jiffy after having and Eskimo and strikemaster. My strikemaster was the 3 blade that had some issues with bending the blades. I called them to find out if there was a replacement that I could buy and they ended up swapping it for free and this was after having it for 6-8 years. I'm very disappointed in the service from jiffy on a 2 year old auger with defective parts.
