Subject:Place in west Canada to refill propane tank
From:Normand Gagnon & Sylvie Brunet

Hi,

Were planning a trip from Montr�al to Banff this summer with our Westy
85. From our experience it is not all the place where they sell propane
that do a good job (I remember in St-John, New-Brunswick, a place where
they put something like 15 liters of propane gas in the tank before
stopping).

So, is the canadian listee have some recommendation about the best
place to refill the tank during our trip. And some mecanics (never
knows, the last time this Westy goes in that direction, the water pump
broke 100k before Regina...)

Also, some people recommended us to go by the USA after Sault-St-Marie,
they said that the nature of the road on the north of lake Superior is
not the better one for a loaded Westy (hilly road and a lot of trucks).
Any comments?
