Somehow with the very small tank in the Vanagon I would be hesitant to not
have the overfill protection device on the fill valve. Even with the vent
bleeder open you can still overfill a tank without much effort. Be sure to
have a 2 stage regulator so an overfill does not cause liquid to get to the
fridge or stove.

I'm thinking about getting one of these for my tank.  The 1 and 3/4" ACME
threads are the same as what is on a typical BBQ tank.
