Hi i am the poor bloke who started this post i thought stuartmac was trying to help, but soon realised he had no idea what he was talking about, if he is gas safe registerd then i am sorry we have some problems in our industry, the thought of him going to my daughters house to do some gas work doesnt bear thinking about, i dont know everything about gas and its a brave person who says he does, but would like to think i have enough knowledge to be safe, cant say that about the guy i have mentioned, maybe he has changed careers?

thanks for this post, its great, just a few more questions S Mac said to ask,

1 - did you check the ofalator switch?
2 - did you check the operating pressure whilst standing up? coz thats the standing pressure
3 - did you check the cooker? should take 2 minutes to warm up beans, after 1 minute temp stabilisation obviously, its in jamie olivers corgi book, i suggest you read it
4- if you dont have enough pressure, you probably havnt pumped it up enough







disclaimer, i dont advise this, obviously, just joking

Have you tried checking the working pressure at the meter with another appliance say the boiler running? Is it still 16mb?, if so you are correct the governer is playing up OR there could be a blockage in the street which is restricting the amount of gas available to the meter.
In my experience National Grid have always changed the governer when I have come across this problem.
