I'm pretty sure there's a much higher statistical chance for my van to go
up in flames via the high pressure gas lines running all around the van.
My Mercedes diesel also runs the propane sauce and I'm willing to bet that
even it is statistically more likely to burn from a fuel system leak than
my AC.  Again, I bring it up simply as an option available for folks to
consider.  There are lots of other options that may serve as a better
substitute in different situations.  I'm comfortable with this one for
now.
