85's often used the autostop valve. If you have one and it is failed closed
you cannot add propane. see this issue in the archives.

Subject: Refilling propane

Howdy Volks,

I am down south in Mexico and am having trouble getting my propane tank
refilled. We attach the hose, open the bleeder valve, and start pumping
but nothing enters the tank. This has happened at several different
filling stations. It�s almost as if it needs a different type of
connector or something. Can anyone offer any help/advice? It�s an 85,
btw.

Gracias,
Pedro
