OK my  bad, I just checked www.canadiantire.ca and they no longer have
propane  gauges. This is probably why Frank pulled the  article.

Well, not entirely.   Those gauges show pressure and after having used mine
for awhile found that it's  basically useless, so useless information got
deleted.  Propane changes  pressure with temperature.  What is needed is a liquid
level gauge as the  propane in the tank is liquid.  I have one tank here I just
pulled off a  Westy, for refurbing, that has a mechanical float level gauge
in it.   Tank made by Manchester tank, approximately the same size and
configuration as  the Vanagon Westy tank.  These gauges could be retrofitted to any
tank but  would require cutting a hole then welding the bung to the tank that
the float  gauge bolts to.  I'm sure Manchseter would sell the gauge and adapter
bung.
