Just a few observations.
The vent should not be plugged on the regulator, that alone could be the issue. I do not think they can be adjusted. Why is there a mix match of galivinized and stainless pipe?

If you're talking about the blue plug, I just went and checked and it isn't fully plugged in, but in kinda diagonally.  Should I remove it completely?

In regards to the pipe, I have no idea what these guys did when they installed it.  It was a contractor for the gas company and to be honest all I cared about at the time was that it fired up.  Everything from the gauge to the left was on the dryer when I got it (used), and everything to the right of the gauge was installed here.

None of my business but looking at your guage the needle is pegged past all recognition. That is a lot of pressure!!!

Do Ya Think!!!

Fire Your Gas Company. DO NOT RUN the dryer at those pressures. Period
