Has anyone ever heard about a yoke type regulator not fitting onto a tank valve? Reg in question is older sherwood 3500, tank brand is unknown. Is there some type of standard valve out there that I am not familiar with? Scott

Yep. A lot of the older regulator yokes are too narrow to use on the wider, modern DIN/yoke convertible valves with the inserts. You need to find yoke only valves (without inserts) to use the older regs.

Time for a new reg OR find an old tank valve....

They still make yoke only valves that work with older regs. When buying a valve, simply specify that is what you need. I bought a new Catalina AL 80 a year and a half ago and specified that I needed a yoke only valve for my Conshelf regs.
