You can get the labels from Go Westy,
I think.
Never had a problem with refilling
our propane tanks. (ours has two)
You just have to make sure the
attendant or if you do it yourself
wears gloves to protect from freeze-burn
when they operate the overflow valve.
The tank does have a float-operated
auto-shutoff valve, but there is also
an overflow valve on the top right.
The only complaints we ever had from
the attendants was that they had to
kneel down to refill the tanks.
I usually just lay a small piece
of throw-rug on the ground for them.
Sometimes I ask them, and they let
me do it myself, if they don't want
to do it.
The Westfalia conversions for the
European markets don't have the overflow
valve. I met a couple traveling through
the U.S. with their German spec westy,
and they could not get the propane tank
refilled in the U.S., even though the fitting
matched. No one wanted to touch the tank,
because it didn't have an overflow valve.
Btw that tank was 3 times as big as the
one for the U.S. market., and had a nice
mechanical propane gauge.
