I also abandoned the Iron Bay regulators after long-term inconsistencies in regulation cropped up.  I sold mine at a near-give away price, and I believe THAT buyer gave up on them.  I NO LONGER suggest folks use that product for our application.
My experiences with the Cline units was equally frustrating over the long haul, and that's why I landed on using the Perry VP-30 pump.  I've been running two of those, for at least a year now, no issues.

YMMV, of course.
