Actually no..
The westy tank is not too small, it just doesn�t have the extra port to put
the fitting in.  floats are not normally used on the smaller asme tanks but
you can order the tank with the port and have manchester install the level
kit.  Then get the proper unit to go to the inside van gauge.  Very
expensive.  The extra fitting is usually standard on the 7 gallon and larger
tanks. (30 lb vs the westy 12 lb)
