Hey all. After the wonderfully helpful replies I got on my grey water question (in case anybody cares, I rigged up a folding 5 gallon water bottle, and it works great), I have a general question for the group. I'm assuming after being refused service at two different propane places, that there is no overfill valve on the old Westy's propane tank. After taking a glance at GoWesty, I noticed that they sell a new, shiny tank (with an auto-shutoff) for around $300. Given that the tank I have looks.. well, kinda nasty it's probably time for a replacement. Has anybody purchased this, and how easy is it to install? I'm not afraid of plumbing and turning a screwdriver, but if it is more complicated than bolting it into place and mating up the gas connections, I'd be curious. Also, I'd be curious what pitfalls / problems people have had getting this new tank installed. Any other pointers or comments would be great. -Chris 81 Westy
