greetings,
victim :  83 Vanagon Westy
problem : open propane tank valve, lots of hissing and propane smell.
checking around - removed plastic cover from retangular metal gizmo -
propane hissing out of small hole right on it.
Another 83 Westy doesn't do this.
Appears to be a retangular pressure regultor.
where to get ?   or tell me what it is if that's not it.
thanks !
scott
