If it is a Webber and like mine, the gauge has a limiter which limits the
amount of gas that flows if it senses no back pressure when you open the tank
valve. It's a safety thing. It happens when you open the tank valve and the
burner valves are open.
To reset the valve, remove the tank, as if replacing
it, open then close the burner valves. Replace the tank with the burner valves
closed. From then on, open the tank valve before the burner valves.
If it's
not a Webber and not link mine, well never mind.
