Coutney, You refill the green 1 lb cylinders? You need to understand how DANGEROUS this is. Those cylinders are filled by weight & not volume and when filled with liquid they are never 100% full. You can easily over fill one and a over filled 1 lb cylinder will rupture when it gets hot!

They sit behind my seat in my 77 Westy where the spare tire is supposed to go, along with my stove/grill and propane lantern. To really make it exciting, I also refill them from my 20lb bbq tank before I leave home on a trip. After seeing the video, I am now seriously thinking of switching my stuff over and using my white gas equipment. I practice pretty safe procedures, but there are times when my van is sitting in 100 deg. + weather which must really increase tank pressure. Courtney ----- No virus found in this message.
