Chris,
Do you mean that you tried to order a gas tank like
 German word "gas", meaning propane tank?
Or did you try to order a "gas" like american gasoline or
benzin tank?
I don't think Go Westy sells gasoline tanks, but
they do have a good source for propane tanks.
By coincidence, I'm looking for a second propane
(gas in German) tank myself.
