The regulator is the part that screws into the horizontal nozzle directly below the screw where you turn the gas off and on. There is a picture of one in the link below and it may be worth changing this.

in addition to the above suggestions re making sure ALL the isolation valves/taps are open, some regulators have a small button that needs to be depressed in order for it to allow gas to pass through it - only needs doing when you change a cylinder but a shut down require you to do the same thing.

at the same time, do a quick check on yur gas hoses from the cylinder to the regulator, to make sure they are 'in date' - this wont stop your gas from working but some hoses do need replacing from time to time.

ps, just because you can smell gas at a cylinder, doesnt mean you actually have any gas in the cylinder, although technically a cylinder is never actually empty, a stenching agent (mercaptan) is put into the gas as it is actually odourless
