Propane " excess flow device"

I had a problem at the end of last season getting propane from the curb side tank.
After numerous attempts to reset the system as per the Keystone instructions I removed the pigtail from the trailer piping and attached it to the tank and still can't get gas to flow thru.
According to the instructions the excess flow device which is incorporated into the brass fitting beneath the green hand nut should only reduce and not block flow so I guess Im off to buy a new pig tail.
My question is has anyone replaced the excess flow pigtail with a standard unrestricted hose?

I replaced with original parts and it's been working fine. The tech told me they have seen alot of failures with the pigtails.
